During the project I have studied extensively both the texts of sympotic poetic fragments and paintings on sympotic vessels, as well as the secondary literature on them and on the application of cognitive approaches to both literature and visual art. I have made a selection of sympotic poetry and pottery for in-depth discussion. I have conducted a study of painted vases at the Musée du Louvre, although its continuation was impeded first by strikes, then by the closure of the Greek vases wing, and finally by the widespread closures in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. I have drafted discussions of both a selection of sympotic pottery and a selection of sympotic poetry from a cognitive angle, and a cognitively inflected comparison of the two. I have also undertaken an article comparing one sympotic poem (Bacchylides fr. 20) and a series of sympotic vases. I have had training on working with ancient Greek vases at the Musée du Louvre. I have also attended a seminar series on cognitive approaches in the humanities at the École Normale Supérieure. Several occasions of dissemination in the form of lectures and seminars in France, Greece, Italy, and Japan have had to be postponed because of the Covid-19 pandemic.
