Dr. Shannon-Henderson’s research focuses on prose literature, both Greek and Latin, of the Imperial period, particularly the 1st and 2nd centuries AD.
Her current projects include a co-edited volume of critical essays on Tacitus, a commentary on fragmentary Greek historian Heraclides of Pontus, and a study of the Latin title “divus” in Roman literary and epigraphic texts.
Teaching interests include ancient history, Greek and Latin at all levels, and mentoring undergraduate research projects in classics.
