Alexander Petkas
Profile
In my middling undergraduate years, growing doubts about my career prospects as a Jazz guitarist coincided with an exponentially increasing fascination with Ancient Greek language and culture, and I belatedly but proudly declared “classics!” late in my third year of college (Trinity University, TX). I graduated in 2008 and began at Princeton in 2010, completing, among other things, a Post-Bac in Classics (UPenn) in the interim. My interests include allegory and exegesis in Late Antiquity, education in the eastern Empire, and the development of Christian culture and identity. I also enjoy, now and then, a good conversation in Attic Greek.
