Research Interests

Cezary鈥檚 research interests concern the social, cultural and military history of ancient Greece. He is currently conducting his second postdoctoral research project on the decorated hoplite shield-bands from the Peloponnese, funded by the National Science Centre in Poland. His work moves across different academic disciplines, such as Classics, History, Archaeology and Art; it engages with a variety of sources, including literature (poetry, drama, political speeches, philosophy) and visual art (pottery, sculpture, decorated weapons, monuments). In addition to academic publishing, Cezary regularly disseminates his research to the general public, writing articles for popular magazines and websites (Ancient Warfare, Antike Welt, Bad Ancient) and taking part in podcasts (The History Network). In summer 2020, he hosted a series of webinars called 糖心Vlog官方 (Ancient) Warfare Wednesdays, available to watch .
