Send us a textWe think of Sparta as a grim place, more of a military barracks with some civilians attached than an actual city. Its inhumane marriage laws, nauseating eugenics program, brutal educational system, obsession with military training, and paranoid suspicion of non-Spartans all led French historian Henri-Irénée Marrou to label Classical Sparta as an ancient fascist state. But there was a time, as Marrou argues in his history of ancient education, when Sparta was the cultural center of ancient Greek life. Artists and musicians flocked to pre-Classical, archaic Sparta to find a population more appreciative of fine poetry and music than anywhere else in Greece. Jonathan and Ryan turn to the Spartan lyric poets Tyrtaeus and Alcman to investigate what Spartan education and society was like in the archaic period, before the city closed in on itself.Henri-Irénée Marrou's A History of Education in Antiquity: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9780299088149Thomas Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9780199537341New Humanists episode on Homer's Contest: https://newhumanists.buzzsprout.com/1791279/episodes/13949908-nietzsche-homer-and-cruelty-episode-lviM.L.

Dr Zahi Hawass is perceived by many as the number one expert in the world on the subject of Egypt's mighty Pyramids, serving as the Chief Inspector of the Great Pyramids, the Director General of the Giza Monuments and the Secretary General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities in Egypt. However, to his critics, he is an academic ‘gatekeeper' - accused of being an elitist Egyptologist, who is preventing the real truth about how, when and why the Pyramids were built from being revealed - an attitude that was illustrated in the reaction to his appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience earlier this year.

Joe responds to the recent conversation between Gavin Ortlund, Javier Perdomo and Cleave to Antiquity about the integrity of the Protestant canon of Scripture. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer, and today I want to explore the Protestant Bible and whether it has the right number of books because as you may know, Protestant Bibles are seven books shorter than Catholic. Bibles are also shorter than Orthodox Bibles, and there’s a lot of debate about this and it matters a lot to know if we’ve got the right Bible. And I want to look particularly...

Send us a textPlato called Homer "the educator of all Greece." But what is a Homeric education? What were the Greeks learning from their supreme bard? Furthermore, the phrase "Homeric education" contains within it a second meaning as well. What kind of education were Homer's heroes getting? In other words, how did Achilles become Achilles? In this episode, we take a close look at Chapter One of A History of Education in Antiquity, in which Henri-Irénée Marrou describes the character of Homeric education, in both its senses, focusing in both cases on "words and deeds," the two fields of excellence every hero must master. Additionally, Jonathan tries to convince Ryan that Iliad Book 9, central to Marrou's explanation of Homeric education, is a story about the triumph of rhetoric.Henri-Irénée Marrou's A History of Education in Antiquity: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9780299088149Robin Lane Fox's Homer and His Iliad: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9781541600447Robert Drews's Militarism and the Indo-Europeanizing of Europe: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9780367886004Caroline Alexander's translation of the Iliad: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9780062046291Thomas à Kempis' The Imitation of Christ: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9780141191768New Humanists is brought to you by the Ancient Language Institute: https://ancientlanguage.com/Come read Homer with us.

Joseph and Aseneth: A Study in Manuscript Transmission (de Gruyter, 2025) expands a few verses from the book of Genesis into a novella-length work. It is increasingly used as a source for Judaism and Christianity at the turn of the Common Era. Scholarly attention has largely focused the work's provenance, the priority of a longer or shorter text version, and the implications for interpretation. But few have engaged with the work's manuscript witness and transmission. This study returns to the sources. It considers how the redaction and translation of Joseph and Aseneth affected its interpretation, and looks at the interests of the redactors and copyists. Its findings warn against placing too much weight on details that lack such an importance in the manuscript tradition. Important contributions made in this monograph include: a detailed study of the two earliest versions, the Syriac and Armenian translations; focus on the Greek manuscripts of the three longest families (f, Mc, a); analysis of four abridged versions (family d, E, Latin 1 and so-called "early modern Greek"); the first available synoptic edition of the Greek versions of the story, including the first edition of manuscript E.

With Plein Air Easton right around the corner, Jess and Marie talk with the 2025 festival judge Peter Trippi.  They discuss his early introduction to art history, his position as Editor-in-Chief at Fine Art Connoisseur magazine, and his approach to curation and judging. Peter Trippi has edited Fine Art Connoisseur since 2006. Previously, he directed New York's Dahesh Museum of Art, which specialized in 19th-century European academic painting and sculpture. Before that, he held senior posts at the Brooklyn Museum and Baltimore Museum of Art. In 2002, Phaidon Press published Trippi's monograph J W Waterhouse, which reassesses the Victorian painter best known for his Lady of Shalott at Tate Britain. Trippi went on to co-curate the Waterhouse retrospective that appeared 2008–10 in the Netherlands, England, and Canada. In 2016, Trippi co-curated the exhibition Lawrence Alma-Tadema: At Home in Antiquity, which visited museums in the Netherlands, Austria, and England. His 2021 curatorial projects were the 45-work exhibition Artful Stories: Paintings from Historic New England, in Milton, Massachusetts, and the five-artist show Flora Nova: Painting Nature Now at Sugarlift (New York City).

This episode almost didn't happen due to a tornado! We were a few minutes into our talk when the tornado warning sirens began to go off near the Professional Left studio, so Driftglass and Blue Gal had to run down to their basement in case a tornado hit their house. But they reconnected to the show from the safety of their basement. And you're going to hear the whole thing on today's show – and by the way, we talked about Israel and Iran, we talked about immigration, we talked about the Trump Phones, the No Kings marches over the weekend – all of it.

Send us a textWhat would it look like to spend an entire day exclusively in Galaxy's Edge as a dedicated Star Wars fan? We tackle this question by creating our own immersive itineraries focused solely on Batuu, breaking down every experience, meal, and purchase along the way.Our detailed plans take you from rope drop to park close, maximizing every moment in this meticulously crafted Star Wars land. We start with early morning strategies – should you head straight to Rise of the Resistance or save it for later? – before mapping out perfect timing for iconic experiences like building your own lightsaber at Savi's Workshop ($219.99) and creating a droid companion at Droid Depot ($119.99).Food and beverages play a crucial role in any Galaxy's Edge adventure. We share why the Ronto Morning Wrap makes the perfect breakfast ("hands down my favorite breakfast in the park"), when to schedule your Oga's Cantina reservations for maximum enjoyment, and whether those colorful milk concoctions are worth trying. From the Andorian Fried Tip-yip to the signature Jedi Mind Trick cocktail, we cover all the must-try consumables that enhance the immersive experience.Beyond rides and food, we discuss shopping strategies at Dok-Ondar's Den of Antiquities, character encounters with Kylo Ren and Rey, and how to experience the land's special ambiance as day turns to night. Most importantly, we break down the complete cost – revealing how a full day exclusively in Galaxy's Edge can easily reach $800-1200 when including all experiences, meals, and souvenirs. Is it worth the splurge for the dedicated Star Wars fan who may not care about the rest of Disneyland? We think you might find the Force is strong with this particular adventure.Here's who we are and what is in store for you

The Lost Tribes were never lost. Those who left Gozan and those who settled in the mountains of the Medes left a trail of breadcrumbs that we can trace on a timeline through history by using the Bible, the Apocrypha, other auxiliary sources such as Josephus' Antiquity of the Jews, and even archaeology. This whole picture shows us that God is in control, and He cares about the details of our lives.

In this episode, Fred Lawrence speaks with Professor Martin Kern, a leading scholar in Chinese antiquity and a professor at Princeton University. Kern shares his unique academic journey, from growing up in post-war Germany to studying in Beijing during a period of political transformation. He discusses the complexities of interpreting ancient Chinese texts, the challenges of nationalism in historical scholarship, and his passion for comparative antiquity. The conversation also explores the richness of classical Chinese poetry, the evolution of historical narratives, and exactly how he ended up studying ancient Chinese manuscripts in the first place. 

What did it mean to be bought, sold, and sexually exploited in the ancient world? In this powerful episode of Two Friends Talk History, Zofia is joined by doctoral candidate Florence Felsheim to explore the hidden realities of sexual trafficking in ancient Greece and Rome. Drawing on literary texts, archaeological evidence, and cognitive science, Florence unpacks how systems of enslavement and exploitation operated in societies often romanticized in popular culture.We examine the scale of the ancient slave trade, the gendered dimensions of exploitation, and how enslaved women were commodified—expected to provide not just labor, but sexual access. From Roman brothels to banquet halls, the episode reveals how normalized sexual violence was embedded in the fabric of ancient daily life.As part of Sexual Violence Awareness Month, this conversation sheds light on uncomfortable histories, connecting past systems of abuse to present-day conversations on power, consent, and human dignity. Listener discretion is advised.

Did you know that ancient Roman statues used to smell like roses? Or that ancient temples and palaces used to be painted with bright colors? What other things from the deep, dark past are vastly different from how we imagine them today? We discuss on this fun, eye-opening episode. ***Katy's sister Dana has recently been diagnosed with stage 4 agressive brain cancer.

In the latest episode of Two Friends Talk History, Zofia and Dr Briana King return to our discussion into Classical Receptions studies. This time, we go into some of the heavier subject matter that we felt deserved its own episode.  Briana joins me to unpack the dark and often overlooked threads of sexual violence in ancient history and its modern reinterpretations through case studies from film and television. We discuss ancient precedents for modern cinematic and television representations of sexual violence - made spectacle – in retellings of Roman narratives.We're diving deep into how classical reception shapes public perception—and why that matters.

Easter celebrates the historical event of Jesus's resurrection If Jesus stayed dead, His words, actions, ideas, and teachings are useless Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” - John 14:6 -Con man -Crazy delusional -Christ the King When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, “Son, your sins are forgiven.” “…This is blasphemy! God is the only one who can forgive sins!” - Mark 2:5-7 The thief said to Jesus, “Remember me, Jesus, when you come as King!” Jesus replied, “I promise you that today you will be in Paradise with me.” - Luke 23:42-43 …the chief priests and the Pharisees went to Pilate. “Sir,” they said, “we remember that while he was still alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise again.' So give the order for the tomb to be made secure until the third day.” - Matthew 27:62-66 “Take a guard,” Pilate answered. “Go, make the tomb as secure as you know how.” So they went and made the tomb secure by putting a seal on the stone and posting the guard. - Matthew 27:62-66 JESUS PROMISES: - Forgiveness - Eternal life - God's love conquers evil & you matter NO RESURRECTION: - No forgiveness – No eternal life – evil wins and life is meaningless Jesus can't be good if he was lying about who he claimed to be For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, and then to the Twelve. - 1st Corinthians 15:3-8 After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born. - 1st Corinthians 15:3-8 PAUL THE APOSTLE -Martyred in 64/65 AD -Corinthians written 55 AD -Jesus crucified 33 AD -That's 22 YEARS, not centuries later! “Pilate condemned him to be crucified and to die. But those who became his disciples did not abandon his discipleship. They reported that he had appeared to them three days after his crucifixion, AND THAT HE WAS ALIVE.” Flavius Josephus – Antiquities of the Jews- 90's AD Personally Matters: -Jesus's love shows you matter -Jesus's death erases our sin -Jesus's life destroys death Jesus's resurrection proves that His love, forgiveness, and offer of eternal life are real!

In this episode of The Box of Oddities, we begin with the extraordinary life—and tragic death—of Khaled al-Asaad, the Syrian archaeologist who courageously protected the ancient city of Palmyra from destruction. Refusing to reveal the location of hidden treasures, he faced unspeakable brutality to ensure the survival of irreplaceable history. His legacy is carved not in stone but in sacrifice. Then, from solemnity to sheer absurdity, we dive headfirst into The Great Stork Derby—a 1930s Canadian legal spectacle where a millionaire's will turned childbirth into a competitive sport. Yes, a real-life baby-making contest. What happens when estate law meets aggressive procreation? A weirdly fertile lawsuit. Two stories: one man dies for ancient artifacts; several women compete for a fortune by having the most artifacts. Heroism and hilarity. Antiquity and maternity. Welcome to The Box.

Episode 522 - Julie Strong - The Tudor Prophecy, An epic, literary tale blending Game of Thrones and Little WomenJulie Strong is a soon-to-be-retired family physician in Halifax, Nova Scotia; she has an ongoing shamanic practice where she addresses the spiritual causes of illness. Julie was born in Manchester, England, grew up in Wales, Australia, and Ireland, and emigrated to Canada in 1980. Her medical degree is from Trinity College, Dublin University, Ireland, and she holds a BA in Classics from Dalhousie University, Halifax. Her shamanism training is from the Foundation for Shamanic Studies in Marin County, California. Dr. Strong has given presentations in Canada, the US, and Europe on the subject of insanity in ancient Greek literature. She presented a three-part series on Greek mythology at Halifax Central Library in spring 2018 and also “Finding Comfort in Difficult Times,” an overview of shamanism, in fall 2021. She is a lecturer with the Senior College Association of Nova Scotia (SCANS) and delivered a six-week course, The Goddess in Antiquity, in spring 2024, which emphasized humanity's need to reconnect with Nature and the Divine Feminine. Book: The Tudor ProphecyEngland, 1541. An ailing Henry VIII reigns from a contested throne. In parallel story lines, The Tudor Prophecy follows two young women, Lady Alice Grantmire and Hester Vaughan, cousins who each suffer greatly from the King's unjust decrees. Lady Alice and her mother are evicted from their estate and take residence in a cottage where they earn a subsistence selling herbal remedies--until they are accused of witchcraft. After being molested by the King, Hester is summoned to her estranged father's home in Wales. There she becomes betrothed to a Welsh bard whose mentor has visions foretelling the ascendancy of Henry's second daughter, Elizabeth. When Hester encounters the eight-year-old Lady Elizabeth, the two forge a relationship whereby Hester can persuade the future queen to temper her own rule with mercy. This epic, literary tale—a Game of Thrones meets Little Women—is also for readers who loved the Wolf Hall trilogy by Booker-Prize winner Hilary Mantelhttps://ocpublishing.ca/julie-strongSupport the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

It's time to blind you with some science! Jeff and Dave follow Marrou's masterful tome (Part II, Chapter VIII) back through the centuries to see what place the other, non-literary side of the education coin held in antiquity. In contrast to present-day obsessions with STEM, we learn that while branches of mathematics were held up as an ideal, they never really took pride of place in the general education of Greeks and Romans. Instead, despite Plato's and Isocrates' best efforts, much like today math was left to the experts. In fact, when the ancients did get their math, geometry, music, and astronomy on, they preferred them with a heaping dose of myth, magic, and mysticism (we're looking at you, Pythagoras). Come along for maybe the worst ever opening gag, some Mike Rowe inspired musings, a quick look at the Greek terror of infinity, and much more. Plus: the long-awaited drawing for the Ratio 4. Who will win?

The urban cultures of ancient Mesopotamia formed the foundation for so much of our modern world. Nowhere exemplifies this better than the city of Babylon, which was the cultural seedbed for the Greek and Roman civilisations that in turn left such lasting legacies.On this episode, Dan is joined by Amanda Podany, professor emeritus of history at the California State Polytechnic University. Amanda draws on an astonishing breadth of original documents and objects to explain just how foundational this civilisation was, and how people learnt to live side by side with one another.Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Dougal Patmore.We'd love to hear your feedback - you can take part in our podcast survey here: https://insights.historyhit.com/history-hit-podcast-always-on.You can also email the podcast directly at ds.hh@historyhit.com.

Wir springen in dieser Folge ins 2. Jahrhundert vdZw. In Sizilien, der ersten römischen Provinz außerhalb Italiens, sorgt die Herrschaft Roms für Wut und Unruhe, vor allem unter den zehntausenden Sklavinnen und Sklaven. Ein Aufstand in der Stadt Enna wird schließlich den ersten Sklavenkrieg einläuten, und damit einen Krieg, der vielleicht weit mehr als nur ein Befreiungsschlag, sondern sogar ein Aufstand gegen Rom selbst war. // Erwähnte Folgen * GAG435: Die Schlacht bei Carrhae – https://gadg.fm/435 * GAG189: Die Schlacht bei Cannae – https://gadg.fm/189 * GAG393: Die Schlacht von Zama – https://gadg.fm/393 * GAG462: Die Schlacht an den Thermopylen oder Das erste letzte Gefecht der Geschichte – https://gadg.fm/462 * GAG489: Ein Konzil, ein Papst und ein Bücherjäger – https://gadg.fm/489 * GAG466: Julia Felix und das Ende Pompejis – https://gadg.fm/466 // Literatur * Keith R.
