Ruth Scodel is an American classicist. She is the D.R. Shackleton-Bailey Collegiate Professor of Greek and Latin at the University of Michigan.^[1] Scodel specialises in ancient Greek literature, with particular interests in Homer, Hesiod and Greek Tragedy. Her research has been influenced by narrative theory, cognitive approaches, and politeness theory.^[2]

Career[edit]

Scodel studied at the University of California, Berkeley, where she received her B.A. in 1973. She obtained her Ph.D. at Harvard University in 1978. Her thesis was entitled The Trojan Trilogy of Euripides.^[3] From 1978–83 she was an assistant professor at Harvard University, and an associate professor from 1984–5.^[4]

Scodel joined the faculty of University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in 1984,^[5] where she became Professor of Greek and Latin in 1987. In 2005 Scodel was elected the D.R. Shackleton Bailey Professor of Greek Language and Literature. Scodel was the seventh A. G. Leventis Professor in Greek at the University of Edinburgh in 2011–12, and under these auspices held the conference 'What's Greek about Ancient Greek Narrative' from 27–30 October 2011.^[6]

Among other prizes for teaching and mentoring,^[7] Scodel won the Michigan Humanities Award (1997–98) and the Gildersleeve Prize (1998).^[8]^[9] She has been active in service to the Society for Classical Studies (formerly the American Philological Association). She was president of the Society in 2007, and has served on the Editorial Board for Monographs (1982–5), as Vice President for Publications (1996-9), and on the Nominating Committee (2008–14).^[10]^[11] She was honoured in 2018 with the "APA/SCS Distinguished Service Award", in recognition of the service to this organisation which she had carried out throughout her career.^[12] Scodel was president of the Classical Association of the Middle West and South from 2014–5.^[13]^[14] In 2017 Scodel was awarded the "Lifetime Achievement Award" by Eta Sigma Phi, the national Classics honorary society.^[15]

Research[edit]

Scodel's research focuses on Homer, Hesiod and Greek tragedy, and is particularly significant in her innovative applications of theoretical approaches such as narrative theory^[16] to ancient literature. She has also written more introductory works such as her Introduction to Greek Tragedy,^[17] which was well received.^[18]

In 1998 Scodel's article “Bardic Performance and Oral Tradition in Homer,”^[19] won the Gildersleeve Prize (American Journal of Philology), for work described as "an important contribution not only to the reading of Homer but also to narratological theory".^[20]
