Felipe Soza serves as Assistant Professor of Classics at Williams College since 2023, specializing in Ancient Mediterranean history with emphasis on Greek and Greco-Roman political structures, urban development, and cross-cultural historiographical traditions.
His academic credentials include:
- B.A. in History from Pontificia Universidad Católica of Chile (2009)
- B.A. in Philosophy from Pontificia Universidad Católica of Chile (2010)
- M.Phil. from University of Oxford (2016)
- Ph.D. from Harvard University (2023)
Soza's research integrates classical studies with Latin American intellectual history, examining autocratic systems in antiquity alongside the reception of classical traditions in modern Latin America. His methodological approach combines textual analysis with material evidence through epigraphy and numismatics, particularly regarding urban life in Greek and Roman contexts. This dual focus creates a distinctive bridge between Mediterranean antiquity and contemporary historiographical practices.
His publication record demonstrates consistent scholarly output across both ancient history and transnational historiography, with recent work analyzing Spartan imperialism through Thucydidean frameworks and documenting Chilean academic exile communities. These publications reflect his commitment to interdisciplinary methodologies connecting classical philology with modern intellectual history.
