TRADITION AND ORIGINALITY: HOW TO DEAL WITH CLASSICAL PLAGIARISM

This paper discusses a successful anti-plagiarism project at the University of Manchester. The study of Classics and Ancient History presented students with multiple levels of textual authority when producing their own writing, which makes the problem of plagiarism even more complex and difficult to define. A subject-specfic approach to plagiarism engaged directly with these problems, modelling good practice with relevant examples.
