A specialist in Latin poetry, Chris Brunelle published\u00a0Ovid, Ars Amatoria: Commentary on Book 3<\/em>\u00a0<\/a>(Oxford University Press), which won the\u00a0Ladislaus J.

He wrote articles on Ovid (including a chapter in\u00a0Gendered Dynamics in Latin Love Poetry<\/em>)<\/a>, Juvenal, Alexander the Great, and pedagogy, along with a number of book reviews. He has also published two volumes of\u00a0The Church Year in Limericks<\/em><\/a>\u00a0(MorningStar 2017 and 2021).<\/p>\n

Having studied with the late Fr. Reginald Foster in Rome, Brunelle is a fluent speaker of Latin and a composer of Latin poems, inscriptions, and documents.

\"\"Besides being married to Carleton College history professor Serena Zabin, Brunelle\u2019s greatest claim to fame is having learned to sing with a British accent in the King\u2019s College Choir of Cambridge. He and Serena have a dog, Thalia, who loves taking a dip in the pool (see photo above for proof), and three children, Sonia, Lilith, and Julian, shown here (left to right) with their parents before enjoying the musical Six<\/i> in Boston.<\/p>\n
