A new MP3 sermon from Alpha and Omega Ministries is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Inside Writing a Scholarly Article on Ancient Greek Literature Subtitle: The Dividing Line 2026 Speaker: Dr. James White Broadcaster: Alpha and Omega Ministries Event: Podcast Date: 6/11/2026 Length: 70 min.

Sophocles wrote "Antigone" almost 2,500 years ago, but the themes in the story are timeless. Nez Perce scholar and author Beth Piatote was inspired to write an Indigenous version of "Antigone," featuring a young woman torn between a moral duty to her family and ancestors and the will of the state. Playwright Beth Piatote joins us, along with Nathan Woodworth, one of the actors in a new production from the Native Performing Arts Network and Bag and Baggage Productions in Beaverton. We are also joined by Jeanette Harrison, Creative Director of the Native Performing Arts Network.

What's Homer got to do Christianity? With the upcoming film adaptation of The Odyssey, there is a renewed interest in Ancient Greece. In one way, the way of life idealized by Ancient Greeks was very different from how Christianity would later shape culture around the world. But, in another way, there is substantial agreement between the two. Dr. Scott Masson, Associate Professor of English at Tyndale University, joins us today to discuss an unexpected pairing of ancient writings: The Odyssey and the book of Proverbs. Is there something we in the 21st-century West could learn from Homer's epic poem? How does Scripture shed light on it? Tune into this week's edition of the AC Podcast to find out.

Yeah, this will be a real barn-burner! A truly entertaining program! Lots of sound effects and humor! Clicks galore! Actually, none of that. After some general discussion and a bit more on the de-evolution of Mormonism, I spent the rest of the program discussing my work on a scholarly article responding to the theory that Pseudo-Dionysius is actually a first century production. See? Thrilling. Well, I do try to explain why, anyway. And our audience has learned that sometimes you have to do a deep dive to really get a foundation for important things.

We aren't men of constant sorrow, but we ARE Bros of Constant ROFL-ing! We are so excited to be jumping into the Coen Brothers' bluegrass, deep-South-meets-Ancient-Greek epic, O Brother, where art thou? Along the way, we discuss excellent screams, pivots into surrealism, and the fascinating camp of river baptisms. Head to our PATREON for the full video episode!

He brings to life the surviving fragments of timeless wisdom from the lost plays of ancient Athens. Consider sayings such as, “The truly happy man ought to stay at home,” “Hunger, and lack of coin, put a stop to love,” and “Hades, alone of the gods, does not enjoy bribes.” These and many other memorable lines from Greek dramatists like Sophocles, Aeschylus, and Menander were preserved centuries after their creation, thanks to Stobaeus—a fifth-century AD scholar who collected them to instruct his son.Stobaeus's anthology offers the only glimpses we have of countless lost Athenian plays: concise, eloquent verses chosen with a father's wisdom. Some fragments spark “aha” moments, others deliver wit or dark humor, and many offer profound moral insight.With this volume, James Romm becomes the first to translate these fragments into verse for English readers. Vividly rendered and elegantly presented, Since You are Mortal . . . is both an ancient and enduring guide to living a thoughtful, virtuous life.He is the author of Since You're Mortal . . .: Life Lessons from the Lost Greek Plays. https://www.jamesromm.com/http://www.yourlotandparcel.orgSupport the show

The National Science Foundation has announced it will begin removing most of the Ocean Observatories Initiative, a collection of roughly 900 instruments in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans that gathers fixed-point data on temperature, carbon dioxide levels, and more. The move is part of a broader trend within the current administration to shelve climate science research and reporting.   Also, today the Agora and Acropolis of Athens, Delphi on Mount Parnassus, and other Greek archaeological sites preserve not only cultural heritage, but also animal and plant species, including some that were around in ancient times and are described in historical accounts and Greek mythology. And the indigenous residents of Bougainville island in Papua New Guinea say their home used to provide them with everything they needed—shelter, fertile land, and clean water. That is until a copper and gold mine run by British-Australian company Rio Tinto set up shop and operated in the 1970s and 80s. Today, heavy metals like copper sulfate and cadmium still pollute waterways, and Theonila Roka Matbob, the 2026 Goldman Environmental Prize Winner for Islands and Island Nations, has been fighting for years to pressure Rio Tinto into taking full responsibility for remediating this damage. --   Save the date and sign up for the next virtual Living on Earth Book Club event on July 14 at 5 pm PDT / 8 pm EDT!

Discovering Plants with Healing Powers with guest Ava Long, Clinical Herbalist and Owner, Floral Botanical Medicine Greek physician Hippocrates is attributed with saying “Nature is the best physician.” Herbalism is the study and practice of using plants for medicinal, therapeutic, and health-promoting purposes.Ancient Greek herbalism helped form the foundation of modern herbal medicine and the emphasis on the balance between nature, health and philosophy. Every plant seems to have its own special healing superpowers, and a relatable story to tell. Clinical herbalist Ava Long shares her story and her approach to herbal science. Ava Long is the owner of Floral Botanical Medicine, a health and wellness practice. Her diagnostic approach incorporates live blood microscopy to uncover root causes of chronic health concerns. She develops individualized herbal protocols for detoxification and for restoring balance and achieving optimal health. Ava has trained at various institutions, including the Boston School of Herbal Studies, where she also serves as an adjunct professor. She is also the founder of Maine Sea Greens, a seaweed food product combining her passion for herbalism and seaweed. Through her work, she helps others benefit from ancient holistic practices alongside modern technology. Note: Roughly 30 percent of the global population is at risk for iodine deficiency. Symptoms of iodine deficiency include unexplained weight gain, chronic fatigue, cold sensitivity, dry skin, thinning hair, and enlarged thyroid gland. Seaweed, the best natural source of iodine, is an excellent herbal and dietary addition for supporting thyroid health, regulating blood sugar, and providing antioxidant protection. Seaweed should, however, be consumed in moderation to avoid excess iodine.

Why history's greatest Athenian leader may be wildly misunderstood todayWas Pericles really the mastermind behind Athens' Golden Age — or have historians spent centuries exaggerating his importance?In this explosive episode of History Rage, acclaimed classicist and Cambridge professor Paul Cartledge tears apart the modern obsession with “Periclean Athens” and argues that ancient democracy was far more complex than the story of one great man. From the origins of democracy and demagogues to the brutal realities of Athenian politics, this is a fascinating deep dive into Ancient Greece, the Peloponnesian War, Sparta, rhetoric, and political power.Paul explains why Pericles could never have ruled like a dictator, why Athens executed failed politicians, and why modern comparisons between Pericles and modern autocrats completely miss the point. He also explores the cultural mythmaking around the Parthenon, the famous Funeral Oration, and the role of Thucydides in shaping Pericles' legendary reputation.The conversation also shines a spotlight on Aspasia of Miletus — often unfairly dismissed as Pericles' “mistress.” Paul argues passionately that Aspasia was Pericles' intellectual equal and one of the most misunderstood women in ancient history.If you love Ancient Greek history, classical civilisation, democracy, Sparta vs Athens, Greek philosophy, or the politics of historical memory, this episode is essential listening.In this episode:Was Pericles really responsible for Athens' Golden Age?How Athenian democracy actually workedWhy the word “demagogue” changed meaningThe truth about Aspasia of MiletusPericles, Sparta and the outbreak of total warAncient rhetoric and political persuasionWhy historians still argue about Pericles todayPaul Cartledge's book:Pericles: Statesman, Demagogue, EccentricBuy through the History Rage Bookshop:https://uk.bookshop.org/a/10120/9781836392002See Paul at Chalke History FestivalPaul is speaking at the on Wednesday 24th June.Tickets available here:https://www.chalkefestival.com/Follow Paul Cartledge:https://www.classics.cam.ac.uk/directory/paul-cartledgeSupport History Rage:If you enjoy the podcast, you can support History Rage on Patreon for bonus content, livestreams, book giveaways and more:https://www.patreon.com/historyrageFollow History Rage:https://historyrage.comhttps://x.com/historyragehttps://www.instagram.com/historyragepodcast/https://www.facebook.com/historyrage Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of Rem Tenē, we begin our new series within Rem Tenē! telling the story of Book 3 of the Aeneid in comprehensible Latin!Episode 0: https://youtu.be/vr2IdjRbPPk?si=TjyiYVEQCU4us5FvEpisode 1: https://youtu.be/LdGXknMxfVI?si=tu5dQ_myCqxa7tTQEpisode 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKpk7akf5xQ&t=508s

Thousands of years ago, Ancient Greek travellers created a list of the most extraordinary sights they encountered: the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. These included places like the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Lighthouse of Alexandria, and the Colossus of Rhodes. Today though, only one still survives: the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt. So, in the early 2000s, a huge international campaign called the “New Seven Wonders of the World” aimed to create a modern list of wonders. Some governments launched campaigns encouraging citizens to vote for their country's monument. Critics argued that countries with larger populations had an unfair advantage. And UNESCO, the United Nations organisation responsible for protecting world heritage sites, was not involved in the project. So today, I want to explore the story behind the New Seven Wonders of the World. What are they? Why were they chosen? And do they really deserve the title of “wonder”? And we will do all of this while learning some new vocabulary and practicing your English listening comprehension.

Stoic Morning Meditation — Ancient Wisdom for Anxiety Relief | Calm Your Mind | Guided Meditation━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Misha Glenny and guests discuss cybernetics – the field of study which gave us the prefix ‘cyber' and helped lay the foundations for the information age. After the Second World War, cybernetics emerged as the study of communication, feedback, and control in both animals and machines. Cybernetics was first defined in 1948 by the American mathematician Norbert Wiener (1894-1964) and aimed to find a shared universal language which could be used across disciplines. The name drew on an Ancient Greek word for steersman, the person who stands at the helm of a ship to steer or govern its course. Cybernetics saw the world as systems which used loops of information and feedback to adjust their own course of action. Those ideas could be applied to anything from thermostats to the human brain, and arguably laid foundations for the information age.WithJacob Ward Historian of science and technology at Maastricht UniversityJon Agar Professor of Science and Technology Studies at University College LondonAndOrit Halpern Lighthouse Professor and Chair of Digital Cultures at Technische Universität DresdenProducer: Martha OwenReading list:Peter Galison, 'The ontology of the enemy: Norbert Wiener and the cybernetic vision' (Critical Inquiry 21, 1994)Slava Gerovitch, From Newspeak to Cyberspeak: A History of Soviet Cybernetics (MIT Press, 2004)Orit Halpern, Beautiful Data: A History of Vision and Reason (Duke University Press, 2015)Orit Halpern, Robert Mitchell and Bernard Dionysius Geoghegan, The Smartness Mandate: Notes toward a Critique (Grey Room 68, 2017) Orit Halpern, Financializing Intelligence: On the Integration of Machines and Markets (e-flux, March 2023)N.

Stephen Priest graduated with the class of 2020 after attending Cambridge since second grade. He went on to Baylor University, where he majored in mathematics, philosophy, and linguistics, and is now completing a master's in philosophy at Georgia State, where his research touches on AI ethics and moral cognition. The throughline connecting all of it runs directly back to Cambridge. Stephen's episode is a sustained meditation on how ideas connect. Latin and Ancient Greek taken simultaneously led him to linguistics. Logic opened the door to set theory and philosophy of mathematics. A senior thesis topic became an undergraduate thesis topic and remains an area of active inquiry. The Cicero he studied in rhetoric class became the subject of a first-semester college research paper, written in Latin, drawing on three distinct strands of his Cambridge education at once. What he finds most striking is that it was not only his training in mathematics that prepared him for advanced mathematics. It was his training in the humanities. Upper-level math is about proofs, and proofs are arguments, and knowing how to find, develop, and communicate an argument clearly is the same skill Cambridge builds through essays and debate. The disciplines were never as separate as they appeared. For Stephen, philosophy is where all of it converges. It is the discipline that asks what the other disciplines are actually doing, and Cambridge, without ever teaching a philosophy course per se, spent years preparing him to love exactly that question.

My conversation with author, soldier, and scholar, Nicholas Tobias.This is the first public interview with Nicholas, and he agreed to speak on condition that we'd preserve his alias and therefore his anonymity. Hence there is no video of him, and the sound quality from his undisclosed location was not perfect. But this was a fascinating conversation that I'm going to be thinking about for a long time.Let me know what you think in the comments.Subscribe to the Cost of Glory newsletter for detailed maps, images, and analysis of this pivotal moment in ancient history: https://costofglory.substack.com/Get in touch at:Website: https://costofglory.comX: https://x.com/costofglory

On how the Spartans achieved emotional mastery, long before Stoicism was invented.

My guest for this episode is Edward Tick. Ed is a therapeutic mentor, pilgrimage guide,educator and poet. He has been honoured for his groundbreaking work in the spiritual, holistic, and community-based healing of veterans and other survivors of severe violence who suffer Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and moral injury. He also conducts original and groundbreaking work in the Ancient Greek tradition. Since 1995 he has led more than twenty pilgrimages to Greece, teaching ancient traditions and the use of myth, poetry, tragedy, literature and philosophy for deep soul exploration.

Few societies in history have inspired as much fascination as ancient Sparta.  It was a city-state built on discipline, military power, and a way of life unlike anywhere else in the ancient world.  From its feared hoplite army to its rigid social system, Sparta became one of history's most famous cities.  Yet the real story is far more complex than myth.

What if we've been teaching Latin and Greek all wrong?In this episode of the Anchored Podcast, Soren Schwab sits down with Guillermo Dillon, Senior Consultant in the U.S. for the Polis Institute, to discuss why the future of Latin and Ancient Greek depends on something bigger than textbooks, but on our understanding of why these languages must be kept alive.Guillermo makes the case that Greek and Latin should not be treated as “dead languages” or mere tools for boosting test scores, but as living gateways into the intellectual tradition of the West—the "Republic of Letters", as the American Founding Fathers referred to it.From spoken Latin and immersive pedagogy to the growing demand for trained classical language teachers, this conversation explores what it would look like to teach ancient languages as languages once again.Be sure to check out Guillermo Dillon's forthcoming book, a practical teacher's guide designed to help educators teach "Unus, Duo, Tres" using a communicative, immersive Latin method.

The Lyre's Ream is a transatlantic celebration of art and learning. The Lyre's Dream unites Canada, Greece, Bulgaria, and Israel through the timeless language of music. Conceived by the English Montreal School Board (EMSB) in collaboration with Greek composer-lyrist-researcher Dr. Nikos Xanthoulis, and guided by the artistic direction of Maria Diamantis and Dimitris Ilias of Chroma Musika, the project brings together the Sofia Session Orchestra, the EMSB Chorale, and narrators from EMSB high schools for a vibrant musical journey through Ancient Greek and Hebrew texts. An educational and artistic odyssey linking Montreal, Athens, and Sofia, it weaves together civilizations and generations — a luminous reminder that, as Seikilos wrote more than two millennia ago: “While you live, shine.” #WeAreEnglishMTL #ChooseTheEMSB #LyresDream #Music #Lyre #Canada #Greece #Israel #Bulgaria #ChromaMusika

Of the estimated 1,500 plays written in ancient Greece, only 33 complete works survive today—the rest were lost because medieval scribes deemed low-brow comedies and mass entertainment unworthy of expensive parchment during the transition from fragile papyrus to durable vellum, prioritizing canonical tragedies and Christian-compatible texts over Menander's seriocomic dramas and experimental works about shapeshifting heroes. The only reason we know anything about hundreds of these vanished plays is Joannes Stobaeus's fifth-century AD Anthologion, a four-volume anthology of excerpts from over 500 Greek authors compiled to educate his son Septimius, preserving bite-sized quotations that warn good people don't always prosper, power favors the shameless, and politics rarely rewards the just. Today's guest is James Romm, author of Since You're Mortal: Life Lessons from the Lost Greek Plays. We discuss how Stobaeus reveals lost works like Sophocles' Achilles' Lovers featured shapeshifting and humanized heroes far more experimental than surviving plays, why some of the lost plays may have deserved to disspear forever (sort of like VHS copies of B-movies like Deathbed: The Bed that Eats that are rotting away on thrift store shelves and haven’t been transferred to HD format) and how Romm became the first scholar to translate many of these fragments as poetry for English-language readers, restoring the rhythmic force that made them memorable on the ancient stage.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A legend of the great Greek city of Athens, Themistocles rose from obscurity to save ancient Greece and helped shape one of the greatest naval powers in history. Yet his story ends in exile, condemned as a traitor and serving the very empire he once defeated: Persia.In this episode of The Ancients, Tristan Hughes is joined by Michael Scott to explore the extraordinary life of Themistocles. Together Tristan and Michael delve into the political intrigue of early Athenian democracy, charting Themistocles' dramatic rise and equally dramatic fall. How did he persuade Athens to invest in its fleet and defeat Persia's great navy? Why did his career end in disgrace? And how did this architect of Greek victory ultimately find himself in the service of the Persian Empire, the very enemy he swore to destroy?MOREHow to Party Like an Ancient Greek:Listen on AppleListen on SpotifyThe Persian Wars: Xerxes, Thermopylae and Salamis:Listen on AppleListen on Spotify Presented by Tristan Hughes.

Ever wondered how the ancient Greeks tried to read the future? 

Study session scripture: Romans 7:1-6Or do you not know, brothers—for I am speaking to those who know the law—that the law is binding on a person only as long as he lives? For a married woman is bound by law to her husband while he lives, but if her husband dies she is released from the law of marriage. Accordingly, she will be called an adulteress if she lives with another man while her husband is alive. But if her husband dies, she is free from that law, and if she marries another man she is not an adulteress. Likewise, my brothers, you also have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who has been raised from the dead, in order that we may bear fruit for God. For while we were living in the flesh, our sinful passions, aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bear fruit for death. But now we are released from the law, having died to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code.Study session topics:The triumph of grace over the power of the law Law is binding only until death Ancient Greek wording omits "the" in v. 1 Paul is talking about a broader concept of law than the Law of Moses Death ends all obligations and contracts Paul's illustration: marriage Paul ties the idea of marriage dissolving at death to the Christian's relationship to the dominion of the law vs. the dominion of Christ This illustration is not allegorical (i.e. the husband does not represent the law, or Adam, or our old nature) Though this is an imperfect illustration, it is useful for several reasons: A woman who is married to a man is under the authority of that man The subjection of a wife to a husband in marriage is for lifeIn spite of the permanence of this relationship and the authority it confers, there is still the possibility of entering into another relationship The object of marriage is to bear fruitFlesh vs. spirit The word "flesh" here has a deeper theological meaning that Paul often uses in his letters in contrast with "spirit" Flesh (sarx) can refer to a physical human body (Luke 24:39, Gal. 2:20), the whole of mankind (Isaiah 40:6), or our fallen, sinful nature v. 5 uses the latter meaning It can't be a physical body, since it speaks of flesh in the past tense It can't be all humanity, since it is contrasting flesh with the new life according to the SpiritInterpreting the use of the word "flesh" correctly is critical, because misuse of the term has given rise to the modern view of the "carnal Christian" Scripture does speak about and to immature Christians, but it does not support the idea of them being in a separate category of persons from "spiritual" Christians Scripture treats the process of sanctification for the Christian not as something that is optional, but as an inevitability (I Cor. 6:9-11, Philippians 1:6, Hebrews 9:13-14) In Romans 7:6, Paul presents 2 categories: captivity to sin aroused by the law, and serving in the new way of the SpiritStudy session audio: S4 E17: Romans 7:1-6

We need to keep in mind that the Bible in early Christian times was more often heard when read aloud to a group than read privately; very few early Christians owned copies of the Bible, and some did not known how to read. This is why preaching was so central to the early Christian worship. Teaching the Bible involved hearing more than reading. The early Christian preachers implemented what rhetoricians had learned and practiced. Consider these traits of of the Greco-Roman rhetoricians. They" 1. Authoritatively proclaimed the truth. 2. Spoke with urgency & without hesitation. 3. Invoked metaphors to sensorily involve hearers' imaginations and emotions. 4. Their statements were emphatic and all other ideas are outrageous. 5. Pronouncements have global and eternal ramifications. Rhetoric is the art and science of persuasion. Effective rhetoric involves: relevant content and engaging style leading to responsive persuasion. What preachers can learn from an understanding of the Ancient Greek principles of Rhetoric: (i) Preach with a sense of clarity about you are saying. (ii) Prepare your message around the rhetorical structure. (iii) Plan what you will stress and how you will do it (especially your conclusion and exhortation). (iv) Practice before you preach

BECOME A MEMBER OF THE APE ARMY TODAY ON PATREON!!   / themodernapes   Mushy Mushy, Monkey Monkey! Welcome back to another glorious episode of The Modern Apes Podcast with Tristan Bowling & Daniel Bridge-Gadd. We wanted to thank you for making the last two weeks (the Luis J. Gomez ep/solo ep after) a huge success. We are growing this thing one member of the Apes Army at a time. This week the boys are talking warriors. After last week with the Cartoon Wars we thought it would be good to bring it back to the OG core of the pod and do some ANCIENT APES. That and we both really like the show the "Deadliest Warrior". Daniel pulled up with a pound for pound top ten warrior of all time. King Leonidas leader of the famed Spartan 300 army. We take a brief look inside the childhood of a king and what it took to make it in Spartan culture. Then obviously we jump right into the battle from the film where the Spartans faced a situation where the only way to move is forward, and there is nothing more glorious then a heroes way out. All in all if you like Ancient Greek history and big battles you should like this ep. Tristan comes in with a person so cool it knocked Daniel's hair back. Have you heard of Yasuke, well you are about to, and no he's not Afro Samurai….Daniel asked that already so you don't have to. Yasuke is looked at as the First Black Samurai on record. After showing up in Japan in 1579 he swore his services to Oda Nobunaga and fought during the Sengoku period. Dude was known for legendary fights and probably had something to do with why chocolate youths are all the sudden into Anime.

With The Dark-Robed Mother: A Memoir (Wesleyan University Press), poet-translator-professor Rachel Tzvia Back explores her life with high-functioning depression, weaving Ancient Greek myth, poetry, family history, interviews, and more into an amazing tapestry of life in the dark forest. We talk about the challenge of structuring the arc-less nature of depression, the shame of not being completely debilitated by her illness, how the myth of Demeter and Persephone helped her translate and understand her experience as a mother and a daughter, what it means to be the mother who fails and why she included interviews with her adult children in the book, whether there's a therapeutic aspect to writing a memoir like this, and how much of a departure this book was from her poet-roots. We also get into how she found herself in Greek and Roman myths in contrast to her orthodox Jewish upbringing, how she manages to bridge the Athens and Jerusalem divide as a teacher, her family's roots in Israel and what the country has become since she moved back 40+ years ago, what it's like to live life under rockets and how normalizing it affects us, our takes on Achilles and Odysseus, and more.
