Career
In her research and writing Thompson employs the evidence of papyri to look at social and economic questions; she is further concerned with relations between the different ethnic groups of Ptolemaic and Roman Egypt. She has taught extensively at Cambridge (Isaac Newton Lectureship in the Faculty of Classics, 1992–2005) with a visiting professorship in 1996 at Princeton University. She was a Member of the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton in 1982–1983 as well as a Fellow of the National Humanities Center, North Carolina in 1993–1994. Thompson was awarded a Research Fellowship from the Leverhulme Trust in 2002–2004.[3]
Her 1988 book Memphis under the Ptolemies was awarded the 1989 James H. Breasted Prize by the American Historical Association.[4]
From 2001 to 2007 Thompson served as president of the International Association of Papyrologists and still remains an Honorary President of that organisation.[5] Other presidencies include the Cambridge Classical Association (1987–1990) and the Cambridge Philological Society (2002–2004). She was elected as a Fellow of British Academy in 1996 and is a current fellow of Girton College, Cambridge and a bye-fellow of Clare College, Cambridge.[3]
In 2013 she was awarded an honorary Doctor of Letters from the University of Liverpool.[6]
