Ália Rodrigues obtained her PhD in Classical Studies from the University of Coimbra. More recently, she worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the BioRom Project at the Centre for Classical and Humanistic Studies. She is currently working on the translation of the Lives of Lycurgus and Numa by Plutarch which will be published this year. Over the past few years, her primary research focus has been the intellectual history of political ideas, with a specific emphasis on the Greek and Roman political traditions. Beyond the academic experience, she also collaborated in the submission of proposals for several projects as well as on the organisation of events related to Classical Studies both at a national level and at an international level: Newton Fund Researcher Links Workshop Grant (Cambridge-Brasilia, 2017), XI Symposium Platonicum (4-8 July, http://plato2016.org/) which, for the first time, took place in a country in the Southern Hemisphere, SBEC (Brasília, 2014), Symposium and Philosophy in Plutarch (2008) among others. Outside Academia, she also co-founded the PI Project which consists in organising Classical Theatre workshops aimed at children with health issues and/or from problematic family backgrounds.
