President Trump's daughter, Ivanka Trump, and her husband Jared Kushner, are planning to develop a luxury resort on a beautiful stretch of Albania's coastline. But there is a growing protest movement against the project, which is on public land and many Albanians view it as government corruption. And the identities some partners involved in the development are hard to find. We go to the Adriatic coast to learn more about the project.See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

How did a city of 30,000 people survive for 450 years between Venice and the Ottoman Empire — and what does the Republic of Ragusa have to do with the cherry on top of your cocktail?

And how did one man, escaping a burning city in a rowboat in 1944, carry a single cherry sapling across the Adriatic and rebuild an entire industry from it?Join John and Patrick as they tell the story of Croatia — the merchant republic, the marasca cherry, and the extraordinary stubbornness of small things that refuse to be destroyed...----------In Sponsorship with Cornell University: Dyson Cornell SC Johnson College of Business-----------Join the History of Fresh Produce Club for ad-free listening, bonus episodes, book discounts and access to an exclusive chatroom community.Support us!Share this episode with your friendsGive a 5-star ratingWrite a review-----------Subscribe to our biweekly newsletter here for extra stories related to recent episodes, book recommendations, a sneak peek of upcoming episodes and more.-----------Instagram, TikTok, Threads:@historyoffreshproduceEmail: historyoffreshproduce@gmail.com

Размисли!"En: "Milena, where are you going? Think!"Sr: Стигли су до скривеног дела обале.En: They reached a hidden part of the coast.Sr: Поглед је био задивљујући: сунце је плесало по води, а лагани ветар је разигравао њене таласе.En: The view was stunning: the sun danced on the water, and a gentle breeze played with its waves.Sr: Милена је стајала у тишини, апсолутно очарана.En: Milena stood in silence, absolutely enchanted.Sr: "Погледај", рекла је тихо, "зар није дивно?"En: "Look," she said quietly, "isn't it beautiful?"Sr: Душан је одмахнуо главом, али је ипак пришао корак ближе.En: Dusan shook his head, but he still stepped closer.Sr: Његов поглед се променио.En: His perspective changed.Sr: Почео је да види свет Милениним очима.En: He began to see the world through Milena's eyes.Sr: "Да," признао је стидљиво, "вредело је."En: "Yes," he admitted shyly, "it was worth it."Sr: Одатле, седели су и причали о томе како понекад треба напустити план.En: From there, they sat and talked about how sometimes you need to abandon the plan.Sr: Милена је схватила да је понекад потребна стрпљивост.En: Milena realized that patience is sometimes needed.Sr: Душан је схватио како спонтаност може донети нове искуства.En: Dusan realized how spontaneity can bring new experiences.Sr: Седели су тамо дуго, посматрајући сунце како залази над мирним Јадраном.En: They sat there for a long time, watching the sun set over the tranquil Adriatic.Sr: Ћутке су уживали у лепоти тренутка који су поделили због Миленине храбрости и Душанове спремности да се отвори за ново.En: Silently, they enjoyed the beauty of the moment they shared because of Milena's courage and Dusan's willingness to open up to the new.Sr: За обоје, тај тренутак је био драгоцен, а веза међу њима чвршћа, испуњена новим спознајама и заједничким сећањима.En: For both, that moment was precious, and the bond between them was stronger, filled with new insights and shared memories.

Why Polignano a Mare, Puglia Belongs on Your Travel List If you've been dreaming about southern Italy, there's a very good chance that Polignano a Mare, Puglia is already somewhere on your radar. Even if you don't immediately recognize the name, you've almost certainly seen photographs of it: whitewashed buildings dramatically perched on limestone cliffs above the Adriatic, impossibly blue water below, and terraces that seem suspended between sea and sky. It's one of those places that looks almost too beautiful to be real. But as stunning as Polignano a Mare is, what makes it truly memorable goes far beyond the view. This is a place where food traditions run deep, where local markets still reflect the seasons, where olive oil is part of daily life rather than a luxury, and where a traveler can experience Puglia in a far more meaningful way than simply checking scenic spots off a list.

Today we're heading to Slovenia, a country that somehow packs alpine peaks, emerald rivers, vineyard-covered hills, and a slice of the Adriatic all into one incredibly compact destination. It's one of Europe's most diverse landscapes, yet still feels refreshingly under the radar. Joining us today to help unpack what makes this country so unique, are my partners in the region, Živa Vincetič and Mattej Valencic. We chat about Slovenia's fascinating history and cultural identity, the landscapes that define it, from the Julian Alps to its famous karst caves, and of course the incredible experiences from outdoor adventure to wine and cuisine.

Strung along the Adriatic like a sun-bleached necklace of islands, walled cities, and limestone cliffs, Croatia packs a disproportionate punch. Ancient Roman palaces double as living neighbourhoods, medieval fortresses guard turquoise coves, and a coastline once fought over by empires now belongs to the sun-seekers. Discovered and rediscovered, Croatia wears its beauty with the weary grace of a place that's seen it all before.Love the pod? Get the guide!

1.Jeff Bliss reports a deadly avalanche in Lake Tahoe claimed nine lives due to dry uncompacted snow, severe storms are causing heavy snowfall at Donner Pass and flooding the Los Angeles River, while Las Vegas faces declining foot traffic and Los Angeles battles rampant copper wire theft. 12.Jeff Bliss covers California's upcoming gubernatorial jungle primary with Democrat Eric Swalwell and Republican Steve Hilton as early frontrunners, Spencer Pratt challenging Mayor Karen Bass in Los Angeles, and Governor Gavin Newsom positioning himself for a 2028 presidential run on an anti-Trump platform. 23.Gene Marks reports that despite a disappointing fourth-quarter GDP growth rate of 1.4 percent and sluggishness in shipping and chemical sectors, small businesses remain surprisingly resilient with optimism above average and continued hiring plans even as AI integration remains limited. 34.Gene Marks discusses the Supreme Court ruling the administration's April 2025 emergency tariffs unconstitutional, leaving billions in collected funds in limbo, though the administration will likely utilize the Trade Acts of 1962 and 1974 to continue imposing targeted tariffs without congressional approval. 45.Jim McTague reports Lancaster County reflects the national 1.4 percent GDP slowdown with flat retail, consumer price fatigue, and plummeting restaurant traffic due to rising costs and weight-loss drugs, while Washington DC lobbying and local health and construction sectors remain strong. 56.Lorenzo Fiori reports the Milan Winter Olympics are proceeding successfully amidst beautiful snow with rumors of a Donald Trump visit for the hockey finals, while extreme weather has caused dangerous Alpine avalanches and the tragic collapse of the historic Lover's Arch on the Adriatic coast. 67.Bob Zimmerman of Behind the Black reports NASA successfully completed a wet dress rehearsal for the Artemis IImission targeting a March 6th launch, while a NASA report classified Boeing's Starliner failure as a severe Type A emergency prompting tighter control as SpaceX competition thrives. 78.Bob Zimmerman reports Japanese private space startup ispace is struggling with severe engine development problems for its lunar landers, while archival images from New Horizons reveal Pluto's bizarre splotched surface and floating ice mountains, and a newly discovered dim galaxy hints at dark matter's vastness. 89.Sir Max Hastings details the daring glider assault to capture the Orne River bridge, where Major John Howard'stroops achieved total surprise, securing a vital link for British airborne and seaborne forces on D-Day itself. 910.Sir Max Hastings discusses General Montgomery's expanded vision for D-Day and the initial chaos of the airborne landings, noting that despite the shambles at Merville battery, paratroopers' bravery confused German defenders and secured the mission's early vital stages. 1011.Sir Max Hastings highlights Major General Richard Gale's calm leadership during the chaotic airborne drops, with success relying on British deception plans and Rommel's absence preventing early German counterattacks against the beaches on D-Day. 1112.Sir Max Hastings describes specialized armored funnies that supported British landings on Sword Beach, noting that while technically successful, heavy traffic and Montgomery's overly ambitious objectives prevented the Allies from capturing Caen on D-Day. 1213.Henry Sokolski of the Nonproliferation Policy Education Center critiques the inconsistency of threatening war against Iran over its nuclear program while simultaneously considering a deal to allow Saudi Arabia uranium enrichment capabilities under less stringent international oversight. 1314.Veronique de Rugy of the Mercatus Center explains how bipartisan spending on entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare drives national debt, arguing that American consumers, not foreign nations, primarily bear the economic burden of tariffs. 1415.Professor Richard Epstein of the Hoover Institution analyzes constitutional limits of presidential authority to fire independent agency officials, discussing historical precedents like Humphrey's Executor and critiquing legal reasoning behind maintaining quasi-judicial independence within the executive branch. 1516.Professor Richard Epstein predicts the Supreme Court may strike down tariffs, arguing that trade deficits do not constitute legal emergencies, while also discussing the potential for the Court to preserve the Federal Reserve'sindependence from executive control. 16

Hillary Clinton, the former US secretary of state, and her husband, the former president Bill Clinton, have agreed to testify in the congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. She said the government's behaviour indicated it had something to hide. President Trump has repeatedly denied wrongdoing and says he broke off contact with the convicted sex offender many years ago. Also: Australia's Prime Minister has refused to repatriate a group of Australians in Syria associated with the Islamic State group, saying they could face prosecution if they went back. Ahead of the resumption of indirect talks, President Trump says he believes the Iranians want to make a deal over its nuclear programme, while the foreign ministry in Tehran says the US is moving towards a "more realistic position". Italy laments the loss of one of the Adriatic's most famous landmarks, the rock structure "Lovers' Arch", which collapsed on Valentine's day following days of bad weather. And, the American actor, Robert Duvall, has died aged 95.

Slovenia sits at a crossroads of Europe – where the Alps meet the Pannonian Plain and where a short Adriatic coastline opens onto the wider Mediterranean world.From Lake Bled and its island church to ancient pagan traditions and Ljubljana's legendary dragon, Slovenia is steeped in myth and memory.In this episode, we are joined by Dr Lauren Mackay, an historian of Early Modern Europe, as she examines how geography and power intertwined to shape Slovenia's identity across the centuries.Academy Travel is a leading specialist in small-group cultural tours, allowing you to travel with like-minded companions and learn from internationally renowned experts.

In this episode, we visit Pogliani Select, purveyors of artisanal, estate‑grown olive oils and aged balsamic vinegars sourced directly from small family farms across Italy and Croatia. From the hills of Tuscany and the groves along the Adriatic to a tasting room in the Catskills, we explore how these Old‑World traditions travel across continents — and why the craft behind them matters.This conversation is part tasting, part education, and part journey into the people, places, and practices that shape truly exceptional oils and balsamics.What We Cover

We're going to the Slovenian coast this week during the final years Yugoslavia with Ana Schnabl.  Dunja has finally launched her literary career, but the shadow and spectre of her brother's death haunts both her and her family. What happens when she returns to investigate her brother's death? And what happens when the truth becomes stranger than the fiction she writes? Ana Schnabl's novel is published by Divided Publishing. Ana is a Slovenian writer, and this is her second novel to be translated into English, by Rawley Grau. Her first novel to be translated into English was The Masterpiece, that time by David Limon. In Slovenia, she is a winner of Slovenia's prestigious literary prize, the Kresnik award. She's also a regular contributor to the journal The Guardian, writing on Balkan politics and culture.

“They make their own wine or olive oil. They have fruit trees. They are so willing to share, to make you taste, to invite you for lunch and dinner, to teach you something. It's a very generous, open approach that was very new for me. It should be normal and obvious, but it's not. It's no longer like this in big cities.”We're in great company with Giorgia Goggi, the Head Chef of Masseria Moroseta—who along with her friends turned family, became the stewards behind this modern farmhouse in Ostuni. Here they have curated an elegant but familiar environment, a place created for those seeking a peaceful atmosphere between nature, good food, design and beauty. A white stone house standing proudly on a ridge overlooking the Adriatic Sea, surrounded by five hectares of organic olive groves, Masseria Moroseta embodies the essence of Puglia—a unique land, a clear sky, warm scents and simple flavors distilled into every detail.In this episode, Giorgia shares how slowing down to the rhythm of seasons, trusting ingredient-driven creativity, and gathering around a table with strangers who become friends, reminds us why we fell in love with cooking, travel, and community in the first place.Top Takeaways[1:55] From childhood family meals to professional calling, Giorgia transformed her greatest passion into her life's work—finally finding the creative freedom to make her voice heard.[5:00] In Puglia, Giorgia discovered what she didn't know was missing—a landscape where centuries-old olive trees, generous neighbors, and ingredients alive with flavor make creativity not just possible, but inevitable.[10:10] Carlo Lanzini envisioned Masseria Moroseta as a classical Puglian farmhouse—a simple, purposeful design born from agriculture where every space served the land—then reimagined it for today with reverence for tradition and place.[11:35] A day in the life of a Head Chef shifts with the seasons—winter's quietude, spring's renewal, summer's full energy—a rhythm that honors both the land's cycles and the creative space needed to truly innovate.[15:35] With only six rooms and intentionally unscheduled days, guests naturally surrender their itineraries to discover what matters most—a leisurely breakfast, a nap in the afternoon sun, wine at sunset—the very rhythm that defines the Moroseta lifestyle.[22:15] Each Puglian ingredient holds infinite possibilities ensuring Giorgia's work is never finished, always evolving.[25:35] Through workshops, Giorgia steps away from behind the counter to sit as an equal among friends—rediscovering the joy that first drew her to cooking, while guests transform from strangers into a community bound by shared meals and stories.[29:30] Rather than expanding rooms, Moroseta expanded possibilities—holiday villas for friends, boat tours along the Adriatic, restaurant collaborations—each experience another lens through which guests discover the richness of Puglia, always rooted in the same care and intention.Notable MentionsStudio Andrew TrotterTortellini en BrodoNocino Liqueur Visit For YourselfMasseria Moroseta Website | @masseriamoroseta@morosetakitchen | @moroseta_homes | @moroseta_boats

Albania feels like Europe's best-kept secret, perched between the Adriatic and Ionian seas with a coastline that rivals the French Riviera minus the crowds and prices. This small Balkan nation has spent decades catching up with the rest of Europe after emerging from one of the world's most isolated communist regimes. The result is a fascinating collision of ancient history, Soviet-era architecture painted in rainbow colors, and a population eager to show off their spectacular country to anyone willing to venture beyond the typical European trail.Love the pod?

Rounding off in fitting style what, if we may humbly say so ourselves, has been a pretty damn stellar year for new tuneage emanating from Selador HQ …it's the oh so welcome return of a stalwart of the label, a soldier of the scene, and all-round ace human, the one and only… Just Her. And it's double bubble time, as Claire's musical gift to mankind is not one, but two surefire festive favourites. However, much like Slade recorded Merry Xmas Everybody on a sweltering summer's day in NYC, our winter wonderland tale starts back in the heady days of August – as the Selador Boat Party cruised the Adriatic during the much lauded (and inaugural) Balance Croatia festival. As Just Her's set reached an especially exhilarating crescendo, both Steve and Dave simply had to know what one particular track was. Claire advised it was new; it was one of her own called ‘Secrets', and it was currently unsigned – 10 seconds later, it was very much signed, sold to the men with the bunny logo. One listen to this beauty, by turns tough as old boots and effortlessly euphoric, and you'll soon see why. Sister track ‘Floating Clouds' then joined the party, bringing another equally infectious addendum to proceedings. With its incessant arp gliding hypnotically over punchy bass and whip cracker percussion, it's not just here to make up the numbers, it's a serious contender for your favourite track of the release. So pick a winner. The choice is yours. We're just trading secrets with our heads in the clouds x Team Selador x

The Cold War ended, but crises kept coming. This episode opens in the Balkans, where Yugoslavia's breakup pulls Marines into a different mission. Offshore in the Adriatic, they fly strikes, launch rescues, and put infantry ashore as refugee camps, no-fly zones, and patrols blur the line between war and relief. From there, the story follows deployments to Haiti, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Albania, and East Timor, where Marines secure embassies, evacuate civilians, and support coalitions trying to hold together collapsing states. Then 9/11 hits, and the long war begins. Task Force 58 pushes hundreds of miles inland to seize Rhino and Kandahar, proving sea-based Marines can operate inside a landlocked country. The chapter ends in Helmand, in places like Garmsir, Now Zad, and the Ganjgal Valley, where patrol bases, IEDs, and hard lessons define a war with no clean finish.

ako Europa baš i nema neke šanse dostići SAD po investicijama, mogla bi imati AI kompaniju poput OpenAI-ja ili Anthropica. Doduše, s time se ne slažu svi gosti našeg podcasta Slažem se, ne. Složni su, međutim, kako europskim i hrvatskim startupima nedostaje ambicije, neutažive gladi koja vodi startup do onih najviših razvojnih faza kakve obično gledamo na američkom tlu.Povodom objave Atomicovog izvještaja o stanju u europskom techu 2025. ugostili smo u našem podcastu Vedrana Blagusa, managing partner u Feelsgoodu, Vedrana Bajera, generalnog menadžera Adriatic regije u AI startupu Wonderful i Andreja Božića, suosnivača startupa codenamecode i predstavnika IT udruge Unit Croatia._______________0:00 Uvod7:18 Europska tech scena će nadjačati američku10:32 Europa će imati AI kompaniju kalibra OpenAI-ja ili Anthropica11:32 Najveći problem Europe nisu talenti ni regulative, nego premale ambicije.18:47 Europski VC još uvijek ne razumije kako financirati scaleup fazu.21:15 Hrvatska nema dovoljno senior talenata za ozbiljan scaleup.24:20 Hrvatska je dosegnula privremeni plafon kad je riječ o VC investicijama.27:03 Najuspješniji hrvatski startupovi su u praksi više nisu "hrvatski".29:25 Hrvatska ima potencijalna tri nova jednoroga.32:25 Najveći hrvatski startupovi budućnosti još uvijek ne postoje.33:45 VC zima još nije gotova, tek dolazi najteža godina za fundraising.37:45 Hrvatski startupovi u 2026. prikupit će manje investicija nego u 2025.38:50 Venture debt će u Europi postati važniji od equityja, a to će se preliti i na Hrvatsku.40:15 Mirovinski fondovi u Hrvatskoj će promijeniti mišljenje o ulaganjima u fondove rizičnog kapitala.41:35 Corporate bi uskoro mogao postati glavni izvor kapitala za hrvatske startupe.46:20 Europa ima bolje AI talente od SAD-a, ali ih ne zna zadržati.50:55 AI će stvoriti više startupa nego ikad, ali većina će trajati manje od godinu dana.53:50 Europska AI regulacija je najveći promašaj desetljeća.58:25 Hrvatska u budućnosti ima važno mjesto u europskom techu._______________

Recording on the move along the Adriatic, the guys sit down in Italy with their spiritual guide and friend Fr. Stuart Crevecour to talk about Eucharistic adoration—what it is, why it matters, and how to begin. From stories of Eucharistic miracles in Cascia and Orvieto to practical advice for dads bringing kids to the chapel, this episode explores how adoration “holds a moment of the Mass” so Christ can transform our week. Along the way: pilgrimage anecdotes, incorrupt saints, and a few dad-joke detours.Segment GuideOn the Road (and Sea): Why This Episode Is DifferentFirst-ever episode recorded in transit—pilgrimage vibes, College GameDay energy, and what a Jubilee year in Italy feels like.Eucharistic Miracles: From Casual Irreverence to Deep ConversionThe bleeding breviary in Cascia and the miracle preserved in Orvieto become cautionary tales—and catalysts—for reverence and faith.What Adoration Is (and Isn't)Fr. Stuart offers a simple frame: adoration as a moment of the Mass held in contemplation—the elevation “stretched” so we can gaze and be changed.Does It Really Do Anything? Why GoFrom “just try it” to “I can't live without my hour,” we hear how steady time before the monstrance re-centers a life and renews prayer.Awkward at First: How to Start a Holy HourBring a rosary or a good spiritual book. Expect silence to feel long. Keep going. Over time, conversation gives way to presence.Spiritual Communion: When You Can't ReceiveMaking a spiritual communion at home or in church keeps us oriented toward the tabernacle—especially helpful in seasons of waiting or constraint.Benediction: A Different Kind of BlessingWhy the blessing at the end of adoration is unique: you're being blessed by Christ himself, truly present in the Host.Family Adoration (Without the Panic)Practical ideas: parish “family holy hours,” short come-and-go windows, and training kids gently in reverence (yes, even page-turning).If Your Parish Doesn't Have AdorationHow to ask your pastor for a weekly hour or occasional exposition—and ways laity can help make it happen.From Medieval Piety to Today's RenewalHow devotion blossomed after Corpus Christi and grew again in recent decades—feeding vocations, parish life, and personal holiness.Key TakeawaysAdoration deepens Communion. It doesn't replace the Mass; it disposes us to receive the Eucharist more fruitfully.Start small, stay steady. Twenty minutes grows into an hour; over time, you won't want to miss it.Bring the kids. Create kid-friendly windows or family hours; let children encounter Jesus and learn chapel habits gradually.Spiritual communion matters. If you can't receive sacramentally, orient yourself to the tabernacle and keep showing up.Benediction blesses uniquely. The blessing is given with Christ himself, not merely by the priest.Memorable Lines“Adoration is a moment of the Mass held in contemplation.”“You can't outgive the Lord—show up and let Him do the work.”“Hang out with Jesus often; we become like the people we're with.”“Correct the [Eucharistic] abuses, but don't throw out the baby with the bathwater.”How to Begin a Holy Hour (Simple Plan)Arrive and acknowledge: a slow Sign of the Cross; “Lord, I'm here.”Read briefly (5–10 min): a Gospel passage or trusted spiritual...

Few names in modern water polo shine as brightly as Andrija Prlainović. Born in Dubrovnik and raised in the intense rivalry of the Adriatic coast, he became one of the defining players of his generation. Over three decades in the pool, he collected nearly every possible title — Olympic gold, World and European Championships, club triumphs with Partizan Belgrade and Pro Recco, and countless lessons learned along the way. In this episode of the WET Podcast, Prlainović speaks with openness and reflection about his path — from a young boy watching local heroes to becoming one himself. What follows is not just the story of a champion, but of a man who believes that discipline, humility, and hard work are the true foundations of success.

In 1864, the American packet ship Adriatic was on voyage from London to New York when it was captured and burned by the notorious Confederate raider CSS Tennessee. The passengers and crew were taken prisoner, but the ship fell out of memory. In 2016, Captains John Noonan and John Bricker, and their team of divers discovered the old sailing vessel, along with some of its artifacts. John Noonan and John Bricker join me as guests to discuss the Adriatic, how they found, and the research involved to identify it. Written, edited, and produced by Rich Napolitano.

Announcing The Classical Society - https://theclassicalsociety.comPart 2 of 3 of Caesar's Civil War series. After his lightning conquest of Italy, Caesar faces his greatest challenge yet as Pompey masses a vast army in Greece. In this episode:Caesar's second dictatorship and revolutionary reforms in Rome—citizenship grants, debt relief, and restoration of the proscribedThe dangerous winter crossing of the Adriatic, splitting his forces against Pompey's naval supremacyThe siege of Dyrrhachium and Caesar's ambitious 17-mile circumvallation to trap PompeyThe catastrophic defeat that nearly ended Caesar's career—his worst loss yetThe brilliant strategic retreat showcasing the iron discipline of Caesar's veteransYoung Curio's tragic death in Africa, highlighting Caesar's reliance on inexperienced lieutenantsThe fateful convergence at Pharsalus as both armies march into ThessalyThe decisive moment when Caesar's hidden fourth line shattered Pompey's cavalry chargeThe fall of the Roman Republic as 15,000 Romans died by Roman swordsCaesar's own account reveals a commander pushed to his absolute limits, saved only by the loyalty of soldiers who would "rather eat tree bark than let Pompey slip through our fingers." The battle that destroyed the old Republic hinged on a single morning's decisions, proving that world history sometimes turns on the choices of one man in command. As Caesar stood over the carnage at Pharsalus, he reportedly said: "This is what they chose. After so many deeds in the service of my country, they would have me, Julius Caesar, condemned as a criminal, unless I sought the protection of an army."Works Cited: Gareth Sampson, The Battle of Pharsalus Matthias Gelzer, Caesar: Politician and Statesman James Froude, Caesar: A Sketch, Raaflaub (ed.)

The American sailing vessel Adriatic collided with the French steamship Le Lyonnais on November 2, 1856, off the coast of Nantucket in what can best be described as a maritime hit-and-run. Adriatic's captain, Jonathan Durham, rendered no aid and left the passenger steamship to fend for herself. 114 people died in the collision and in the days that followed. My guest is shipwreck hunter Jennifer N. Sellitti, author of "The Adriatic Affair: A Maritime Hit-and-Run off the Coast of Nantucket". In this episode of Most Notorious, she recounts the tragic tale of the incident and the dramatic efforts by France to bring Captain Durham to justice. She also shares details of her quest to uncover the long-lost wreck of the Le Lyonnais.

By 281 BC, Rome controlled much of Italy, but the city was still a minor player on the larger Mediterranean scene.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the remarkable rise of Venice in the eastern Mediterranean. Unlike other Italian cities of the early medieval period, Venice had not been settled during the Roman Empire. Rather, it was a refuge for those fleeing unrest after the fall of Rome who settled on these boggy islands on a lagoon and developed into a power that ran an empire from mainland Italy, down the Adriatic coast, across the Peloponnese to Crete and Cyprus, past Constantinople and into the Black Sea. This was a city without walls, just one of the surprises for visitors who marvelled at the stability and influence of Venice right up to the 17th Century when the Ottomans, Spain, France and the Hapsburgs were to prove too much especially with trade shifting to the Atlantic.With Maartje van Gelder Professor in Early Modern History at the University of AmsterdamStephen Bowd Professor of Early Modern History at the University of EdinburghAndGeorg Christ Senior Lecturer in Medieval and Early Modern History at the University of ManchesterProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list:Michel Balard and Christian Buchet (eds.), The Sea in History: The Medieval World (Boydell & Brewer, 2017), especially ‘The Naval Power of Venice in the Eastern Mediterranean' by Ruthy GertwagenStephen D.
