She is a specialist in Latin love poetry, classical reception studies, and the interpretation of the roles of men and women in the ancient world. She has also written widely on the role of the figure of Julius Caesar in Western culture. Early lifeMaria Wyke was born in London in 1957[1] to a Mexican mother and an Australian father. She was educated at Catholic schools and studied classics at Somerville College, Oxford (1976–1980). She subsequently completed her PhD at King;s College, Cambridge.[2][3] CareerWyke began her academic career at Manchester University from where she joined Queen's College, Oxford and the Newnham College, Cambridge.[3] In 1992 she took a year out to study film and television at the British Film Institute,[3] and then she joined the University of Reading where she became professor of Latin.[4] She joined University College, London, in September 2005 as professor of Latin.[3] Her research relates to Latin love poetry and the interpretation of the roles of men and women in the ancient world.

At the time there had been little research into the portrayal of Romans in 20th-century popular culture. She received funding from the Wingate Foundation, the British School at Rome and the British Academy, and published a book on the subject in 1997, Projecting the Past: Ancient Rome, Cinema and History.[6] Wyke subsequently received a Balsdon Fellowship from the British School at Rome to build on this research, looking at Derek Jarman's film Sebastiane and the role of the figure of Julius Caesar in Western culture.[7] For the latter, she edited a collection of essays on the subject that was published by Blackwell in 2006 (Julius Caesar in Western Culture), authoring Caesar: A Life in Western Culture (Granta, 2007; University of Chicago, 2008) and more recently writing Caesar in the USA which was published by University of California Press in 2012.[8] Personal lifeWyke is married and has a daughter.[4] Selected publications
