Is being a tyrant good for you?

Being subject to a Greek tyrant was bad, but was being a tyrant yourself good if you could get away with it? Join Il-Kweon Sir for this lunchtime foray into those early Greek lyric poets who, living in the age of tyrants, explore the almost irresistible allure of tyranny – but also its dangers.

This talk will last 30 minutes, with 15 minutes for questions.
