ClassicsForward grew out of my interest in the ways the ancient world keeps showing up in unexpected places—from political ideas and historical interpretation to astronomy and the stories people tell about the night sky.

I created this site to collect some of the things I've researched, written, taught, and shared with other students, and to make it easier for anyone curious about the ancient world to explore further.

About Alex
I am Alexander Jaeger, a student at Los Altos High School in California interested in Classics, history, astronomy, politics, and public policy.
Â
Much of what interests me sits between those fields: how ancient ideas change as they move through different cultures and periods, how people have understood the night sky, and how ideas about government continue to be interpreted and debated today.
