About

Mason received their PhD in Classical & Ancient Near Eastern Studies in August 2021 from the University of Wisconsin - Madison. Their research interests focus around Roman philosophy and satire of the Neronian period, particularly the representation of the the body and agrarianism (which they pursue in Greek & Latin literature more broadly). Mason is also interested in the reception of Roman Stoicism in later philosophical authors from the Neo-Stoic revival of Early Modern Europe to 20th century Continental philosophical movements.
