In dieser Episode sprechen Anne und Alex über das Thema der Freundschaft. Die Freundschaft war für die Stoiker von besonders großer Bedeutung und schon Zenon sprach von ihr in höchsten Tönen. Diese Episode versucht diese Bedeutung genauer zu betrachten und gleichzeitig zu schauen, in wie fern das stoische Verständnis von Freundschaft uns auch heute noch wertvolle Impulse für unser Leben geben kann.

Diesmal geht's richtig tief in die Nische: Alex und Chris nehmen die Classic Collection von Areej Le Doré unter die Lupe und erklären, was den Reiz von Artisandüften ausmacht – von seltenen Naturrohstoffen über kleine Batches bis zur klar erkennbaren Handschrift des Parfümeurs. Ein wiederkehrendes Thema: Neuauflagen sind hier keine Kopien, sondern Variationen derselben Idee. Weil Naturmaterialien schwanken, verändern sich Nuancen, Texturen und Dynamik – und genau das macht für viele den Charme dieser Linie aus. Auch der Vertriebsmodus kommt zur Sprache: Zuerst erscheint das komplette Set, später folgen Einzelverkäufe. In dieser Runde sorgten Logistik und Zoll (vor allem in den USA) für Verzögerungen, was den Run auf die Flakons nur angeheizt hat. Preislich bewegt sich die Kollektion im oberen Segment – je nach Duft liegt ein 30-ml-Flakon grob im Bereich von knapp unter 300 bis gut 300+ Euro/Dollar –, doch die Stückzahlen sind klein und die Releases oft schnell vergriffen. In der Praxis probieren die beiden nacheinander durch: Antiquity 2 erinnert sie an eine klassisch anmutende Komposition mit viel Patina – reich, warm und „golden“, aber nichts für jede Alltagssituation. Inverno Russo 2 wirkt kühler, harziger und strukturierter; ein Duft mit Haltung, der seine Tiefe eher im Verlauf zeigt als im Knalleffekt des Openings. Besonders kontrovers diskutieren sie Cuir de Russie 2: das markante Birkenteer-Leder trifft auf seifige, fast „gekämmte“ Blüten – ein Statement mit Sillage, das elegant und doch sehr präsent auftritt. Oud Luwak 2 spielt für beide die Gourmandkarte subtiler als der Name vermuten lässt: kein Zuckerflash, sondern ein dunkler, aromatischer Sog, der Kaffee-, Harz- und Hölzer-Akkorde verbindet. Am zugänglichsten empfinden sie War & Peace 3 – immer noch komplex und charaktervoll, aber im täglichen Tragen am wenigsten „anlassgebunden“ und damit der pragmatischste Griff aus der Box. Zwischendurch geht es um Reifeprozesse, Batchunterschiede und die Frage, wie man solche Düfte überhaupt bewertet: Nach Projektion und Haltbarkeit? Nach künstlerischer Idee? Oder schlicht danach, wie oft man sie tatsächlich sprüht? Chris' Fazit fällt nüchtern aus: Für ihn ist in dieser Classic-Box kein unumstößlicher Must-Buy dabei; wenn er wählen müsste, würde er War & Peace 3 nehmen. Insgesamt ziehen ihn andere Areej-Linien – vor allem die „tierischeren“ Moschus-Arbeiten – noch stärker an. Alex schließt sich dem Grundtenor an: beeindruckende Qualität, spürbare Handarbeit und fünf charaktervolle Signaturen – mit dem Hinweis, dass man den „Kunstfaktor“ gern feiern darf, die Entscheidung am Ende aber am Waschbecken fällt: Was greift man morgens wirklich aus dem Schrank?

Anyone who has seen 'Jurassic Park' will be familiar with amber, as it plays a major role in the plot. This fossilized tree resin was described by the ancients as "warm to the touch and, when burned, is even more agreeable than frankincense." Indeed, it was a highly prized commodity in Antiquity, being used in jewelry and religious practices throughout the Mediterranean, North Africa, and even Central Asia. But the amber in question came from somewhere decidedly far from any of these places: the Baltic Coast. How did this "red gold" travel so far? Tune in to this week's episode to find out!

Vom serbischen Bauern Peter Plogojowitz bis zu Bram Stokers „Dracula“: In dieser Folge verfolgen wir, wie sich aus schaurigen Wiedergängergeschichten im 18. Jahrhundert die Figur des modernen Vampirs entwickelt. Wir sprechen über Vampirprozesse, Gelehrtendebatten der Aufklärung, romantische Schauerliteratur und die ersten Filmikonen wie Nosferatu. So entsteht aus dem pestbringenden Leichnam der aristokratische Verführer mit Cape, Zähnen und unsterblichem Charme – ein Mythos, der bis heute Kino und Popkultur prägt.#vampire #dracula #geschichte #nosferatu #aufklärungBand 1 von Leifs Draugar-Saga: https://www.amazon.de/Die-Saga-Ragnar-Draugabani-Dark-Fantasy-Roman/dp/375841802X---Youtube-Kanalmitglied werden und exklusive Vorteile erhalten: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8d09rKkWS5MkIdAuzUpkmA/joinDir gefällt der Podcast?

How does the classical world shape our politics, culture, language and lives today? On today's episode, we're joined by two of the greatest names making classics accessible for the modern day. Dame Mary Beard is a classicist who taught at Cambridge for almost 40 years. She has close to 20 books to her name, including Pompeii, which won the Wolfson History Prize, SPQR and Emperor of Rome, both of which were bestsellers in the UK and US. Charlotte Higgins is the chief culture writer of the Guardian. She studied Classics at university , and has since written many books on this topic, including Greek Myths: A New Retelling. Charlotte and Mary sat down with classicist and author Honor Cargill-Martin to explore taking a ‘post-truth' approach to antiquity, how the idea of the Romans have been used as a political tool throughout history, and what the Greeks got right and wrong about human nature. You can find more of Mary and Charlotte discussing antiquity and the present day on their new podcast, Instant Classics, available to watch or listen weekly from Thursday August 28.

Could a first-century Jewish historian offer one of the most compelling extra-biblical confirmations of Jesus’ life? In this episode, Dr. Thomas Schmidt, a Yale Ph.D. and author of Josephus and Jesus: New Evidence for the One Called Christ, is here to explore the controversial Testimonium Flavianum, a passage in Josephus’ Antiquities that remarkably affirms key Christian beliefs: Jesus’ miracles, His messianic role, and even His resurrection. Dr. Schmidt challenges the traditional narrative about the passage being interpolated. READ: Josephus and Jesus: New Evidence for the One Called Christby T. C.

Professor Kozlowski embarks on yet another discussion of politics and the Bible. Here we will look at the basic outline of the gospel, as well as key passages from Genesis, Deuteronomy, Judges, 1 Samuel, Matthew, Acts, and 1 Timothy that illuminate the Biblical perspective on politics and government - if there is one.https://www.biblegateway.com contains a wide variety of Biblical translations, including all the passages discussed in this lecture. I recommend the ESV for beginners.No official additional readings for today, though I do recommend and make reference reference to other Biblical, apocryphal, and related texts, like: 1 & 2 Kings, Acts, 1 & 2 Maccabees, and Josephus' Antiquities of the Jews and Wars of the Jews. For my gamers, I'll recommend Afterlife - but mostly as a joke.If you're interested in Professor Kozlowski's other online projects, check out his website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠professorkozlowski.wordpress.com

Although I'm no longer making new episodes of this podcast, I thought you might be interested in my latest book, called The End of Antiquity, which relates particularly well to the content in this podcast since it's about the rise of Islam in the seventh century AD and the collapse of the Roman and Persian empires.It covers the warfare, politics, and religious upheaval of the time, but also introduces a compelling new angle: climate change.Drawing on the latest scientific research, I examine the Late Antique Little Ice Age — a period of significant climatic cooling that struck at the heart of the Roman and Persian worlds, but — and here's the catch — seems to have allowed Arabia to flourish. I believe this could be a crucial, yet overlooked, factor in understanding this pivotal era of history.And you get all of that in the ebook format for only $6.99 in the US and £4.99 in the UK – not far off the price of a cup of coffee. The paperback is obviously more expensive but still not exorbitant at $13.99 in the US and £10.99 in the UK. The link to Amazon is here - I'd love you to take a look, and if you do read it, I'd be thrilled to hear your thoughts. And of course, if you enjoy it, a review on Amazon would mean a great deal to me.Thank you again for your continued interest and support — it's what makes all of my work possible.Please take a look at my website nickholmesauthor.com where you can download a free copy of The Byzantine World War, my book that describes the origins of the First Crusade.

I wanted to let you know that my latest book, The End of Antiquity, is now available in both paperback and ebook on Amazon and will be available through most major book retailers soon.It explores the final days of the Roman and Persian empires, and how they were ultimately overwhelmed by the rise of Islam in the seventh century AD.

Send us a textTHIS IS SPARTA. Xenophon said that, even in his day, the rest of the Greeks thought Sparta's laws wholly strange: "all men praise such institutions, but no state chooses to imitate them." Foremost among these strange laws, of course, were the ones concerned with the rearing and education of children. And these laws, he said, were in their own turn developed not by imitating others, but came from the mind of a single great lawgiver: Lycurgus. It should come as no surprise, then, that the strict military training regime instituted by something of a philosopher-king held out its charms to the young men of Athens who surrounded Socrates. This had, in the case of Critias and the Thirty Tyrants, disastrous results. Jonathan and Ryan take a look at Xenophon, Plutarch, and other texts concerned with the appalling and enthralling institutions of ancient Lacadaemon.Henri-Irénée Marrou's A History of Education in Antiquity: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9780299088149Previous New Humanists episode on Sparta: https://newhumanists.buzzsprout.com/1791279/episodes/17503634-sparta-before-the-reactionary-turn-episode-xciiXenophon's Constitution of the Spartans: https://cmuntz.hosted.uark.edu/texts/xenophon/constitution-of-the-spartans.htmlPlutarch's Instituta Laconica: https://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Roman/Texts/Plutarch/Moralia/Instituta_Laconica*.htmlPaul Cartledge's Spartan Reflections: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9780520231245Pericles' Funeral Oration (from Thucydides): https://hrlibrary.umn.edu/education/thucydides.htmlNew Humanists episode on Nietzsche's The Greek State: https://newhumanists.buzzsprout.com/1791279/episodes/14044549-compassion-versus-classical-antiquity-episode-lviiPlato's Republic: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9780465094080New Humanists episode on Nietzsche's Homer's Contest: https://newhumanists.buzzsprout.com/1791279/episodes/13949908-nietzsche-homer-and-cruelty-episode-lviFragments of Critias: https://demonax.info/doku.php?id=text:critias_of_athens_fragmentsPaul Rahe's The Grand Strategy of Classical Sparta: https://bookshop.org/a/25626/9780300227093Paul Rahe's Was There a Spartan Mirage?: https://yalebooks.yale.edu/2016/10/06/was-there-a-spartan-mirage/New Humanists is brought to you by the Ancient Language Institute: https://ancientlanguage.com/Links may have referral codes, which earn us a commission at no additional cost to you.

Michael Imperioli, the actor known for his roles in The Sopranos and The White Lotus, is also the guitarist of a three-piece indie band called Zopa. Their latest album, Diamond Vehicle, came out in early 2025. KEXP’s Martin Douglas spoke with Imperioli about how he started playing music, the influence of Buddhism in his songwriting, and his fondness of The Beatles, Lou Reed, and The Smiths. “When you play with people for a long time, hopefully something gels,” Imperioli says of Zopa’s music. “It took a while to get there, but I’m happy with how it came out.” Support the show: kexp.org/deeper Support the show: https://www.kexp.org/sound/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.

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.
