Richard Marshall

Richard joined 果冻影院 in 2020 as a Research Fellow working on the ERC-funded project 鈥極rdering, Constructing, Empowering: Fragments of the Roman Republican Antiquarians鈥 (FRRAnt). His work focuses on the scholarship of Republican and early Imperial Rome, its philosophical and ideological underpinnings, and its fate at the hands of subsequent ancient readers and early editors. He has allied interests in ancient historiography and pedagogy, the history of the book, and ancient mathematics. He is currently working on an edition of the mathematical texts transmitted with the corpus of Roman land-surveying treatises, with future plans to edit the fragmentary remains of Suetonius.

Before joining 果冻影院, Richard also worked on the 'Fragments of the Republican Roman Orators' project at the University of Glasgow, and has lectured at Oxford, Glasgow, and the National University of Ireland, Galway.
