Dr. Charis Jo teaches all the undergraduate Latin literature options at Magdalen College. She is currently also the co-director of the Janus Project, researching the intersection between Greco-Roman and East Asian Classics. She defended her doctoral thesis on Augustine’s De dialectica this summer at Oriel College, Oxford where she was the Graduate Teaching and Research Scholar in Classics. Her new research projects focus on the history of classical education as moral education, and on the language and structure of didactic literature.
