The Ancient Greek Hero (or HeroesX) is an intergenerational, open-access learning project launched by Harvard Professor Gregory Nagy. It shares the full content of his long-running Harvard course online for FREE, inviting participants to engage with primary readings, contemporary media, and thoughtful dialogue with a worldwide community. It’s not a graded course—just content, community, and conversation that many participants describe as transformative. It encourages everyone to explore the ancient past and engage in questions vital to the future of humanity.
HeroesX has found a new home through with the New Alexandria Foundation on the Classical Continuum website.
With gratitude,
The HeroesX / NAF team
