Kyklos is a program that represents an ever-regenerated discourse on the Greek Epic Cycle (Greek Kyklos) and it is devoted to new and developing scholarship on the subject. Read about the Kyklos logo here: https://classics-at.chs.harvard.edu/about-the-kyklos-logo/

Its primary purpose is to foster a new generation of classical scholars by offering them, at an early stage in their academic careers, an opportunity to test their ideas in an international environment. The program consists of graduate students, and early career scholars, who work on aspects of the corpus of the Greek Epic Cycle, including its interface with other genres and disciplines. Once every second year the Center for Hellenic Studies hosts an online conference, during which students / early career scholars are joined to present their work. The participation of established scholars in the discipline as discussants to each participant's paper creates a dynamic, intergenerational dialogue. Records of these dialogues have been published as biennial issues of Classics@21. https://classics-at.chs.harvard.edu/volume/classics-21-the-kyklos-project/
