Obert Bernard Mlambo is Associate Professor in Classical studies and history at the University of Zimbabwe. He is former Georg Forster Research Fellow and former Guest Scholar at the Global South Studies Center of the University of Cologne, Germany. His research is broadly framed by the issues of violence, masculinity, gender and colonialism. His book titled Land Expropriation in Ancient Rome and Contemporary Zimbabwe: Veterans, Masculinity and War (Bloomsbury, 2022) brings the Western Classics and Africa together in a historical context, looking at military violence and military veterans in both Classical and African history and society. He has co-edited (with Ezra Chitando, Sakhmuzi Mfecane and Kopano Ratele) the forthcoming Palgrave Handbook of Men and Masculinities in Africa. Obert Mlambo is currently working on two books, one provisionally titled The Classics and Africa: Intercultural and Postcolonial Dialogue with John McClymont, and another provisionally titled Non-Western Approaches to the Study of Classics.
Ezra Chitando serves as Professor in Religious Studies at the University of Zimbabwe, and has served as the Desmond Tutu Extraordinary Professor for Social Justice at the University of Western Cape, South Africa. He has a wide range of research and publication interests, including violence against women, political violence and peace-building. He co-edited the volume Justice Not Silence: Churches Facing Sexual and Gender-Based Violence.
