Abstract: Examination of pedagogical issues relating to the digital humanities based on various projects created at UCLA. Among these is the NEH Sponsored Visualizing Statues in the Late Antique Roman Forum which was incorporated in both undergraduate and graduate courses.

Texts and Topography: Embodying the Roman Street (Conference Paper/Presentation)
Title: Texts and Topography: Embodying the Roman Street
Author: Diane Favro
Abstract: In classical studies, the association of words and places has centered on textual references. Researchers have scoured through epigrams, letters, histories and other written sources seeking descriptive passages about spaces, buildings, streets, landscapes, and cities. Yet words literally occupied places. Thousands of inscriptions embellished and informed Roman environments, though they are usually studied ripped from their original contexts. The Visualizing Statues in the Late Antique Roman Forum project created at UCLA with support from the NEH, interrogates how the placement of inscriptions in the center of Rome as well as their content is essential to understanding their meaning.
