The summer 2007 edition of iris centres around the theme of ancient healing, and contents include:

Earthworms and honey: a trip to the Classical chemist
Theatrical Therapy: using ancient theatre in modern hospitals
Diana at Nottingham: breathing new life into ancient body parts
How to throw a party like the ancient Greeks
Travelogue: the healing waters of Bath
An interview with Bettany Hughes, TV historian
Life in Spas: iris' exciting new mystery series

...as well as the usual quiz, fashion, news, reviews, outreach programmes, fiction, drama, puzzles, advice and much more...

iris magazine is part of an outreach project to promote Classics in UK state schools, and half of all copies printed are sent free to state schools which don't currently offer Classical subjects. This is funded by magazine sales and advertising. If you'd like to help support this initiative, please get in touch through the website.

We believe that all children are entitled to the opportunity of learning about the languages and cultures of the ancient world, and that these subjects are wonderful tools for enhancing literacy, social awareness and analytical skills. Through a range of initiatives in UK state schools, we work to enrich the curriculum by promoting learning about the ancient world.
