i am a recent classics grad based in the uk. my dissertation was about haruspicy so i have been a weird little freak about entrails for months and it shows no sign of letting up. unfortunately. ermmm i think that's it. i'm posting more about classics on this silly little site because my degree is done and i'm sad about not studying classics anymore

i <3 both latin and greek. even though i am kind of shit at translating greek, i try. my favourite era of roman history is the late republic obviously. i did the aeneid in latin and it made me abnormal :(

i love war & peace as evidenced by my url... the bolkonskys… marya and lise FOREVER<3 i love them... mes chers... i also like fedya dolokhov and nikolai and vaska denisov a lotttttt

my other interests includeeee: epic poetry, tragedy, elegy, translation, women in antiquity, philosophy (i like postmodernism quite a bit), hedgehogs & cats & birds, trees & other flora, asoiaf, collecting maileg mice, jazz & folk music AND pathologic
