CSPSCentre for Spartan and Peloponnesian Studies

Resources

The Centre for Spartan and Peloponnesian Studies (CSPS) provides both physical and digital resources as part of our mission to disseminate new research on Sparta and the Peloponnese.

The digital resources available include specially developed resources, CSPS conference proceedings and publications, as well as publications and projects provided by the members of staff attached to the Centre.

There are numerous physical resources at both Hallaward Library and the University of Nottingham Museum on University Park, as well as the CSPS's own resource library in the Humanities Building.

CSPS publications and conference proceedings

Here you will find the published versions of selected papers delivered at our international conferences – they have all been through a process of peer review and editing. We very much hope you will find them useful and we encourage you to pass on the link to other scholars.
