My colleague Chris Faraone and I have been awarded the 2023 C.J. Goodwin Award of Merit of the Society of Classical Studies in recognition of our book, The Greco-Egyptian Magical Formularies.

We are extremely happy and honored. This recognition comes at an excellent moment to give us the boost we need to push this project forward. We thank our collaborators, Richard Gordon, Raquel Martín Hernández, Panagiota Sarischouli, Korshi Dosoo, Rachel Yuen Collingridge, Alberto Nodar, and the whole team of magoi for their participation in this incredible adventure.

The Asociación Cultural Hispano-Helénica in collaboration with the Sociedad Española de Estudios Clásicos started last year the initiative of remote courses, targeted to students of Classics and high-school teachers of Latin and Greek. This one is especially dear to me. I have the fortune of counting among my close friends a number of wonderful scholars who accepted to participate.

The course aims at surveying the lost Greek literature which was recovered thanks to the papyri of Egypt.
