Professor Neville Morley

Neville has the uncanny ability to remind those students of little faith that Ancient History does matter, though his Approaches unit has been known to trigger an existential crisis. His seminars and lectures always make one think, though the tangents triggered can occasionally take this student away from the subject at hand. He is friendly and approachable, and he's also happy to challenge your views - a refreshing experience in a discipline where not being wrong and being right are often conflated. His current Thucydides unit is particularly enjoyable, and I think would work very well as part of the BoB lecture series. Having Neville as a lecturer is a privilege, and he is undoubtedly one of Bristol's best.
