Megan O'Donald, a Ph.D. student in Classics, has recently had her article "The ROTAS 'Wheel': Form and Content in a Pompeian Graffito" published in Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik (ZPE 205 [2018] 77-91). Megan conducted the work for this article for Prof. Sarah Levin-Richardson's graduate seminar on Approaches to Latin Inscriptions and Graffiti last spring. In Prof. Levin-Richardson's words, "O'Donald's article not only convincingly argues for a brand-new reading of one of Pompeii's most iconic and oft-discussed graffiti, but in the process, deftly engages with (and provides new takes on) debates about early Christianity, the intersections of art and text, and metapoetics."
