AJ Interrante of Cistercian Preparatory School will be reading his paper, “See Some Evil,” at the 2014 Richard III Colloquium


The Oakridge School is thrilled to host AJ Interrante of Cistercian Preparatory School. He will be presenting his paper, “See Some Evil,” at the 2014 Richard III Colloquium this March 21st. Congratulations AJ!

AJ Interrante is currently a junior at Cistercian Preparatory School, and has been since sixth grade.  In addition to poetry and novels, he enjoys art, physics, and American history.  In his spare time he repairs cars, makes jewelry, and partakes in many forms of art.  He has been an Eagle Scout since 8th grade and continues to camp and find peace in the wilderness.  Perhaps one day he will pick up a pen and pad and write some poetry of his own, but until then he will continue reading the work of a great many poets before him.

AJ will be reading his paper during Session E of the 2nd Block “Is There Sympathy for a Villain like Richard III?” which will take place in the upstairs part of the Library.

Joshua Maymir
Cistercian Preparatory School
Joshua Maymir is a junior at Cistercian Preparatory School, which he has attended since 5th grade.  He enjoys both English and Literature, but is also interested in History and Philosophy. He has been an avid runner since 7th grade and is a Captain of the Cross Country team. He is also an Eagle Scout and is working on his Silver Palm. He follows politics and was fortunate enough to serve as an intern for his State Representative. Having read The Prince, he was intrigued by the connections between it and Shakespeare’s King Richard III which lead him to write his paper as an examination of Shakespearean thought on Machiavelli.

Joshua will be reading his paper during Session G of the 2nd Block, “Evaluating Richard’s Rule: Machiavellian Instructions and More,” which will take place in Upper School room 205 in the upstairs part of the Upper School building.
