Ancient Rome and the Construction of Modern Homosexual Identities
Jennifer Ingleheart is a British classical scholar, who is known for her work on Ovid, Classical reception, and the influence of Rome on the modern understanding of homosexuality. She is Professor of Latin at the University of Durham.[1][2]
Career
Ingleheart was educated at Bradford Girls' Grammar School and Wadham College, Oxford.
Ingleheart read Literae Humaniores at Wadham College, and went on to complete her M.St. and D.Phil. there in 2004 on Ovid's Tristia,[3] which was published in 2010. After teaching at Marlboro College, Vermont, Swansea University, and Keble and Wadham Colleges in Oxford, she joined Durham University as a lecturer in 2004 before becoming senior lecturer in 2012, associate professor and then Professor of Latin.[4] Ingleheart is now head of the Department of Classics and Ancient History.[5]
Ingleheart has spoken frequently about her work on how modern cultures have responded to the phenomenon of Roman homosexuality, and the role which ancient Rome has played in modern ideas about sexuality.[6][7][8][9] She ran a major British Academy funded conference in 2012, Romosexuality, on the subject which has shed considerable light on the differences between Roman and Greek conceptions of homosexuality, and differences from modern conceptions.[10][11] Previously most work on classical homosexuality focused on Greek homosexuality and its modern reception, but Ingleheart's work has facilitated new research and interest in the Roman experience.[12] The modern reception of Roman homosexuality in particular has led to Ingleheart's current work on, and translation of, AE Housman's Praefanda, a study of classical sexuality in Latin.[13][14]
