I graduated from the University of Tartu in classical studies in 1997, received my MA degree in classical studies in 2000 and PhD in 2007, both from the University of Tartu. My doctoral thesis is titled "Character description and invective: Peripatetics between ethics, comedy and rhetoric" and can be downloaded from this site. I have worked at the University of Tartu since 1997, having held the positions of an Adjunct Assistant, a Project Manager, and a Research Fellow. Since 2014 I'm a part-time Lecturer in Classical Studies. Since 1 March 2012 I also work as Editor-in-Chief of the University of Tartu Press. My research interests include the representation of ideologies, mentalities and social identities in antiquity, Peripatetic school and tradition, Greek comedy, Greek oratory and rhetoric, Latin epigram and satire, Greek and Latin epistolography, papyrology, classical tradition, history of classical studies, and digital classics.

Wreaths (στέφανοι) have been the symbols of the cult of Muses from ancient times. After the love for Greek Muses had been revived by Renaissance Humanist poets and scholars, it has remained with us both in poetic activity and in scholarship. The Hellenostephanos volume presents a collection of papers by scholars who study Humanist Greek, aspiring towards another revival of Hellenism, and trying to avoid being barbarians.
The volume includes papers by Christian Gastgeber, Gita Bērziņa, Janika Päll, Charalampos Minaoglou, Erkki Sironen, Kaspar Kolk, Tua Korhonen, Johanna Akujärvi, Bartosz Awianowicz, Jean-Marie Flamand, Walther Ludwig, Alessandra Lukinovich, Martin Steinrück, Tomas Veteikis, Grigory Vorobyev, Vlado Rezar, Pieta van Beek, and Antoine Haaker.
