DEPARTMENT OF CLASSICS

Sarah Eisen received her Ph.D. in Classical Archaeology from Harvard University in 2024. Her research interests include the artistic and religious practices of Archaic and Classical Greece, the construction of gender and sexuality in the ancient world, and the lived experiences of non-citizen populations. She is currently working on her first book, which examines the phenomenological experience of ancient Greek animal sacrifice to explore how and why the senses were engaged during ritual. Sarah has excavated in Greece, Turkey, and England, and teaches courses on a variety of topics related to Greek religion, Greek History, and Mediterranean art history.
