Congratulations to Sir Fergus Millar

My recent professor for Judaism and the Roman Diaspora, Fergus Millar, has been awarded a knighthood for services to scholarship as part of the Queen’s birthday honours list. Sir Professor Millar retired in 2002 but has continued to teach courses for the Oxford Centre for Hebrew and Jewish Studies, and, according to the BBC article, “is credited as being among the most influential ancient historians of the 20th Century.” He also has the best eyebrows in Oxford.
