Dr. DeLozier's training, teaching, and research have dwelt on an interdisciplinary approach to the cultures of ancient Rome and Greece. Her research interests lie primarily in the Late Roman Republic and rely on literary and material evidence to reconstruct the discourse employed to communicate, sustain, or repudiate power during social crises in Italy and Roman expansion into the East. Thus how later Greek authors choose to remember Republican events also interests her. Having recently completed her dissertation on ancient memories of statues dedicated to the triumvir Mark Antony and modern attempts to identify such items, she is preparing an article for publication.
