1/4 At @museo_marta, Taranto, two Apulian red-figure pots show the Ethiopian princess Andromeda set to be sacrificed to a sea monster to appease Poseidon’s anger. Perseus killed the monster, rescued the princess and married her.

Great news #ClassicsBSky! Praise for Jessica Westerhold's "Ovid's Tragic Heroines" has landed in BMCR: "A very welcome addition to the study of generic code-switching and gender dynamics within Ovidian poetry." Intrigued?

I, like Corinna, have certainly botched my fair share of box dyes and never seem to learn the lesson. But since the grad school stipend doesn’t cover salon-quality hair coloring, I’ll take a note from Ovid’s book and say a prayer to Ilithyia in advance. #classicsbsky
