Dr Tom Stevenson’s research interests include Roman politics and political ideology of the late Republic and early Empire, the careers of Cicero and Caesar, and representations of the ancient world in historical novels and films.
His current research projects include a book on the history and significance of the idea of the Roman emperor as Pater Patriae (Father of the Fatherland), and a biographical dictionary on Julius Caesar.
He is a Past President of the Australasian Society for Classical Studies (ASCS).
Dr. Stevenson is concerned to highlight ideas and models from ancient history which continue to influence life today, both for good and for ill. He emphasizes the ongoing influence of Roman political ideas and statesmen, and the extraordinary impact of the ancient Olympic Games. These aspects of ancient life need to be understood in their original contexts, so that we can judge their applicability to modern times and use them to best advantage today.
The close analysis of modern novels and films set in the ancient world is another way in which he demonstrates how the ancient past is used for present purposes, both positive and negative (even propagandist). The ancient world needs to be thoroughly understood, in order to prevent unfair or even dangerous manipulation of past conditions in the service of questionable agendas of various types (e.g. political, religious, social) today.
