Para colocar suas velas em movimento, a deusa Ártemis pede o sacrifício da filha de Agamêmnon, Ifigênia.

Episode 3 of The Road To Joni picks up a thread from our conversation with Don Was… and leads us to esperanza spalding. In 2021 esperanza collaborated with her mentor Wayne Shorter on Iphigenia, an opera with a revisionary take on Euripides' Greek tragedy Iphigenia at Aulis. It was Ipheigenia that led esperanza to Joni's living room, though her path on the road to Joni started years prior with a track from the 1976 album Hejira. esperanza tells host Carmel Holt how, at a recent Janet Jackson concert, she was reminded that Joni Mitchell has “literally influenced everyone.” Joni's influence on powerhouse string players and Joni Jam members Chauntee and Monique of SistaStrings began with “the lady that sings on the Janet Jackson song. (‘Got Til It's Gone').” A move from their hometown of Milwaukee to Nashville immersed the sisters in the Americana scene… which led them to a place in Brandi Carlisle's touring band… which led to that fateful Newport 2022 performance when Joni took the stage. SistaStrings credit Joni for being an example for women to “stand on your own, be who you are, make weird music and be loud about it.”

Today's episode of Hangout with Sujata features the brilliant architect of a burgeoning international culinary empire; Simon Rogan. Simon is an internationally renowned, award-winning chef, recognised as one of the pioneers of the farm-to-table movement. In 2002, Simon opened his debut restaurant L'Enclume in The Lake District village of Cartmel, with a focus on hyperlocal and seasonal ingredients. The restaurant currently holds three Michelin stars, the top spot in the Good Food Guide and five AA Rosettes, as well as the top ranking in La Liste with Simon Rogan being the first British chef to achieve this. In 2017, Simon was recognised as the AA chef of the year, and is currently vice president of the Bocuse d'Or UK team.Simon opened Rogan & Co, his second venture in Cartmel in 2008 which won its first Michelin star in 2018 and currently holds three AA Rosettes. In 2016, Simon launched Aulis Cartmel, a six-seater chef's table experience. In 2011, Simon established Our Farm in The Lakes, which provides the restaurant group with high quality, sustainable produce. A London outpost of Aulis arrived in October 2017 as a stand-alone dining destination, a twelve-seater chefs table experience in central Soho. Simon expanded his restaurant portfolio to Hong Kong, opening Aulis in January 2019 and Roganic in February 2019. Roganic Hong Kong was awarded its first Michelin star in December 2019. Simon opened Henrock in October 2019, an informally elegant restaurant set within Linthwaite House, a contemporary country house hotel in the heart of the Lake District. In 2020, in response to the global pandemic, the group launched Home by Simon Rogan, Simon's delivery offering, providing regularly changing three-course 'at home' dining experiences created in The Lakes. In 2021, Simon's efforts towards sustainability were recognised with the newly introduced Michelin green star, awarded to both L'Enclume and Roganic Hong Kong. In 2022, Simon opened a Hong Kong-based bakery and natural wine bar The Baker & The Bottleman. L'Enclume was awarded its third Michelin star, the first restaurant in the north of England to do so. This coincided with the group celebrating 20 years since Simon opened L'Enclume. In early 2023, he expanded his portfolio to Valletta, Malta with the opening of ION Harbour by Simon Rogan. This was followed by an expansion into Thailand with the opening of Aulis Phuket in December of the same year.

In this episode Justine interviews the inspiring Two Michelin star chef of Da Terra, Rafael Cagali.Originally from São Paulo in Brazil, Rafael started his career in London at the age of 21. Inspired by his Italian heritage, young Cagali then took to Italy to work under Chef Stefano Baiocco at A Villa Feltrinelli where he spent over 3 years. Later in another European excursion, he began growing his career after travelling to Spain to work for Chef Quique Dacosta and Martin Berasategui. After returning to England, Cagali joined the team at famed restaurant The Fat Duck by Heston Blumenthal where he had an honourable stagiare position and after graduating took on the role of their Chef de Partie. From there, he went onto work with Simon Rogan at Fera at Claridges. Leading the Aulis in Fera, Rafael carried on there as head chef. In January 2019, Rafael opened his first restaurant Da Terra in Bethnal Green, London. With Cagali as executive chef after only 8 months, and followed by hard work and dedication, Da Terra gained its first Michelin star. And just 1 year later, following a very eventful 2020, the restaurant was awarded their second star in the Michelin guide of 2021. Rafael Cagali's experimental cuisine is inspired by the flavours of his origins and influences of his culinary experiences throughout his career.Instagram: @rafacagali and @daterrarestaurant and @elis.ldnWebsite: daterra.co.uk and restaurantelis.co.ukThank you for listening.

With the Donmar Warehouse about to open a brand new production of Lillian Hellman's Watch on the Rhine, the incredible Kate Duchêne sat down to talk about the new show and why Hellman's writing feels particularly resonant today. Despite never doing a Hellman show before, she tells us about how her writing stands out among her contemporaries and why she's so excited to bring this show to a 2022 audience.  In a world as politically divided as it is today, the show feels particularly relevant and will see Kate star alongside a stellar cast that includes Patricia Hodge and Caitlin Fitzgerald. We also get to hear Kate talk about reuniting with Ellen McDougall following their joint collaboration with Katie Mitchell on the National Theatre's production of Beauty and the Beast and why the Donmar Warehouse felt like the perfect venue for a revival of Watch on the Rhine.Kate Duchêne has worked extensively in theatre for over 30 years, starting out in Edinburgh before moving to the Royal Shakespeare Company and then to the National Theatre where she has notably worked with director Katie Mitchell. With credits spanding from Hecuba in Women of Troy to Clytemnestra in Iphigenia in Aulis to God in Everyman, Kate Duchêne is truly one of our most remarkable actresses working today. In this very special interview, we hear her talk about her illuminating career including reflections on playing Miss Hardbroom in the hit original TV series adaptation of The Worst Witch.

Mis Trujillo and Sophie Paluch from Auddy join Flixwatcher remotely to review Mis' choice The Killing of A Sacred Deer. The Killing of A Sacred Deer is a 2017 psychological horror/thriller film directed by Yorgos Lanthimos with a screenplay inspired by the Greek tragedy Iphigenia in Aulis. Colin Farrell plays a heart surgeon Steven Murphy who strikes up an unusual relationship with Barry Keoghan's Martin - the son of a man who died while Steven was operating on him. Steven invites Martin to meet his wife Anna (Nicole Kidman), his daughter Kim (Raffey Cassidy) and his son Bob (Sunny Suljic) and shortly after Bob becomes paralysed with no know cause. Martin gives Steven an ultimatum that to “balance things” for the death of his father, Steven must kill either Anna, Bob or Kim or they will all die. It is fair to say Yorgos Lanthimos films are an acquired taste and not for everyone - The Killing of A Sacred Deer is perhaps his most divisive so far. Recommendability scores for The Killing of A Sacred Deer were mixed as it swings wildly between black comedy and deeply unsettling. Slightly higher engagement scores manage to give it an overall rating 3.46. Fan of Yorgos Lanthimos?

Em palco na Grande Opera de Avignon está, até esta quarta-feira, a peça Ifigénia. Um texto do português Tiago Rodrigues, com a encenação de Anne Théron. A reescrita do clássico grego de Eurípides para um contexto contemporâneo, onde a mulher assume posição de destaque e nas palavras da encenadora a “mulher diz não”. O espectáculo debruça-se sobre a história da filha do rei Agamémnon, que o soberano sacrifica em nome do combate na guerra de Tróia. Trata-se de uma co-produção do Teatro Nacional de Estrasburgo e o Teatro Nacional São João, do Porto. Em palco um colectivo de nove actores Carolina Amaral, Fanny Avram, João Cravo Cardoso, Alex Descas, Vincent Dissez, Mireille Herbstmeyer, Julie Moreau, Philippe Morier-Genoud e Richard Sammut. Anne Théron é a encenadora da “últimas das Ifigénias”. Qual é a diferença entre a tragédia grega clássica e este texto foi a pergunta de partida para esta conversa. “Há uma diferença enorme. No texto clássico a Ifigénia aceita morrer. Trata-se da glorificação do nome, no guardar na memória que ela morreu pela Grécia, etc, etc. Neste texto é completamente diferente. No texto de Tiago Rodrigues as mulheres dizem ‘não'. Isso começa logo pela Clitemnestra que, como nas versões anteriores, bate-se pela sua filha de um ponto de vista maternal. Porém, aqui, ela avança para o campo político. Questiona o que é justo, o que é esta guerra, se é necessária, a sua utilidade, a quem serve… Toma proporções políticas que são completamente apaixonantes: as mulheres questionam o funcionamento do poder. E sobretudo, Clitemnestra faz uma pergunta absolutamente magnífica a Agamémnon: e se tu renunciares? E ele responde: renunciar a quê? Ao sacrifício? À guerra? Não diz ela. Se tu renunciares a seres rei, se tu renunciares a quem tu és? Já na recta final, quando a morte de Ifigénia é inevitável, esta palavra que é recorrente no texto, inevitável, Clitemnestra amaldiçoou-o e diz-lhe que espera que ele morra na guerra e que se ele voltar ela vai matá-lo com as próprias mãos. Nesse momento, a Ifigénia diz não. Não a este mundo de mentiras. Ela não quer que o seu nome sirva para a repetição contínua da mesma história. Esta postura acontece pela primeira vez. É, por isso, que eu digo que esta é a última das Ifigénias, não há espaço para mais nenhuma após esta. Como é anunciado desde o início, trata-se de uma tragédia e vai terminar mal. Efectivamente, ela morre, mas morre como uma mulher livre, proibindo que a vangloriem. Ela quer ser esquecida.   Há aqui qualquer coisa como uma esperança estranha… uma abertura para um futuro possível." Há uma necessidade de actualizar os clássicos? “Não se trata de uma actualização. Não é isso. É questionar de outra forma. É melhor do que actualizar." Porque é que decidiu guardar alguns diálogos em português entre a Ifigénia e Aquiles? "Sabe quando temos aquela paixão avassaladora por alguém e parece que existe de imediato uma língua própria que nos é comum . Eu estava no Porto a dirigir este atelier e a encontrar actores portugueses. Acabei por escolher a Carolina Amaral e o João Cravo Cardoso. Ouvi-los em português, esta língua, era verdadeiramente lindo. Mais que musicalidade eu ouço um som. Foi isso que me permitiu criar esta história de amor imediata. Os dois têm um código só deles, uma língua deles.” A actualidade influenciou a encenação da peça? “Foi uma coincidência. Há dois anos que trabalho nesta peça, mas é evidente que quando a 24 de Fevereiro, Putin decide invadir a Ucrânia, foi mais do que chocante. Esta peça é precisamente sobre a memória, para que a memória não nos faça reproduzir permanentemente esse tipo de coisas. Mas a encenação da peça não mudou considerando a actualidade. Todavia, não podemos deixar de pensar na guerra logo no início da peça. Para mim é evidente que é o som da guerra na Ucrânia. É o som da guerra. O que me interessava era de realçar estas sombras, que se transformam em actores, personagens, etc… esta memória da guerra. Hoje em dia a guerra tem este som, não teve sempre o mesmo som, mas existe desde sempre e continuamos a reproduzi-la. E reproduzimos, e reproduzimos, e reproduzimos…” Carolina Amaral é Ifigénia na peça com o mesmo nome de Tiago Rodrigues, ele que será o director deste Festival de Avignon a partir de Setembro. Ao microfone da RFI, Carolina Amaral começou por explicar que se trata de uma Ifigénia do século XXI, com um novo “discurso e reivindicação do seu corpo”.  “É, de facto, uma Ifigénia do século XXI ou, pelo menos, com um discurso engajado, uma reivindicação do seu corpo e do seu ânimo novo. Até então, as Ifigénias que surgiram aceitavam o sacrifício de modo quase passivo e aceitavam em nome da pátria ou dos valores do patriarcado. Há uma Ifigénia que diz, por exemplo, eu morro porque o que é a morte de uma mulher em comparação com a vida destes homens todos? Portanto, esta questão quase da subjugação feminina sempre esteve um pouco presente e neste caso a Ifigénia chega-se à frente e diz eu morro mas morro para que esqueçam esta história e para que cessem todas as tragédias. Diz o meu corpo é-me devido a mim, é meu. Portanto parem de falar do meu corpo como se fosse um objecto. Vou morrer mas por decisão minha e não para servir um objectivo que leva à guerra ou que alimente estes ideais de patriarcado." A esta tragédia clássica cai-lhe o classicismo, mas continua a ser tragédia porque no fim a Ifigénia morre à mesma.  “Sim, ela morre. Ela própria diz que não tem armas para combater a inevitabilidade do destino, porque as tragédias continuam a acontecer. É no fundo aquilo que acontece no exterior, as nossas condicionantes, as coisas que nos afectam e que nós não conseguimos escapar delas.  Por exemplo, é uma situação actual, o facto dos direitos das mulheres terem revertido séculos nos Estados Unidos. Era um direito adquirido, o corpo das mulheres a elas lhes pertencem e, de repente, o direito do aborto é-lhes vedado.Portanto, nós não conseguimos controlar aquilo que, muitas vezes, acaba por acontecer no real, mas podemos controlar o discurso e podemos controlar a leitura destes acontecimentos com esta basculação daquilo que sustenta a leitura dos acontecimentos. Neste caso, a Efigénia, a sua força apesar da tragédia que nos fecha sempre em ciclos, é esta leitura que ela propõe que acaba por talvez poder mudar as coisas ao longo do tempo. Não se calhar aqui e agora, mas a longo prazo.” Que tempo é este da peça? A peça passa-se do final do dia até ao nascer do dia. Portanto, é uma noite, mas há um tempo mental, há um tempo também da memória porque a peça é contada através da memória. “Exactamente. É quase como se houvesse uma certa atemporalidade que nos junta a todos neste não lugar que é simultaneamente todos os lugares. É também um espaço de ensaio quase como se estes actores se reunissem e dissessem: vamos contar a história de uma forma diferente, vamos vivê-la por dentro totalmente e vamos entregar-nos ao mito mas encontrar maneira de escapar a esta carga derradeira das coisas. Por isso, é simultaneamente todos os lugares e nenhum lugar. Não é uma recriação histórica, mas estamos a falar de um mito, uma coisa que está lá, desde sempre. Estamos a falar hoje, mas estamos a assegurar todos estes tempos e também os tempos que virão. O próprio Agamémnon diz: “Eu lembro-me do futuro”, quase como se no aqui agora estamos a referir-nos e a dirigir-nos a todos os tempos.” João Cravo Cardoso é o Aquiles desta Ifigénia contemporânea. O “mais vertical e o mais bravo dos guerreiros” que vê o seu nome envolvido para atrair Clitemnestra e Ifigénia para Aulis.  “Estamos no dia anterior ao início da guerra de Tróia. Helena foi levada ou decidiu ir para Tróia e todos os gregos, cumprindo a promessa que fizeram ao pai de Helena, preparam-se para avançar para Tróia, mas nós não temos vento. Agamémnon, o nosso rei, recebe um oráculo que lhe diz que para que o vento volte a soprar, a sua filha Ifigénia tem que ser sacrificada à deusa Artémis.  Nós, no momento, estamos num campo de preparação para a guerra, onde só estão chefes de guerra, generais e soldados. Não há mulheres.  Há semanas que estamos à espera que o vento volte a soprar e Agamémnon para atrair Clitemnestra com Ifigénia para Aulis, aconselhado pelo astuto Ulisses, organiza um plano de inventar um casamento de Ifigénia com Aquiles, o mais vertical e o mais bravo dos guerreiros. Pedido ao qual Clitemnestra anui imediatamente e leva a sua filha para um lugar onde vai ser na verdade sacrificada. O Aquiles é este indivíduo cujo nome é utilizado para esta trapaça que é imposta a Clitemnestra e a Ifigénia.” Aquiles que estava disposto a sacrificar-se pela Ifigénia? “Absolutamente. Estava disposto a sacrificar-se pela Ifigénia. Quando Aquiles chega à cena, ele vem ao acampamento de Agamémnon, o seu rei, o seu general, para lhe impor o ultimato que os seus homens lhe impuseram a ele, ou seja, ou vamos hoje para Tróia ou vamos hoje para casa, não esperamos mais. Mas quando chega ao acampamento de Agamémnon, ele depara-se com Clitemnestra que julga ver o seu futuro genro e então quando ele se dá conta daquilo que realmente está a acontecer, objectivo de ir para Tróia ou ir para casa ultrapassa-se e entra assim no seu segundo objectivo que é salvar não só Ifigénia mas também Clitemnestra do seu sofrimento. Ele está disposto a combater todos os gregos, antes da guerra, para evitar o sacrifício exactamente até ao momento em que a própria Ifigénia lhe diz “tu também Aquiles tens que me esquecer”. Ele anui e a única coisa que lhe diz é: “mas se mudares de ideias só tens que olhar para mim, eu estarei aqui." Há dois ou três diálogos em português na peça entre Aquiles e Ifigénia, precisamente entre o João e a Carolina Amaral. Aquilo que a Anne Théron decidiu que ser a língua do amor.  “Sim, a Anne Théron não percebe uma palavra de português mas ela adora o som. Nós falamos em português no encontro, no amor à primeira vista que Aquiles vive com a Ifigénia que o faz esquecer da guerra.”

In this episode, we follow him to the beach at Aulis—where all the Greek kings and heroes, anyone who was anyone, had gathered at the start of the Trojan War. Achilles left Pyrrha behind, but his time as a dancing girl followed him to that beach. This is where the wind stalled. This is where Achilles first clashed with that titan of fragile masculinity, Agamemnon. And this is where a girl named Iphigenia met her fate.

Familiar music, taken from Gluck's most frequently performed and famous opera Orfeo ed Euridice, follows the initial movement. This well-known music is arranged in a three-part form in which the graceful Dance of the Blessed Spirits, coupled with the eternally beautiful interlude for solo flute, one of the most poignant and memorable of all of Gluck's melodies, becomes the centerpiece of the suite. The suite concludes with two excerpts from the opera Armide, a Musette and a Sicilienne.

With Aeschylus and Sophocles, he is recognized as one of Athens's three great tragic dramatists. An associate of the philosopher Anaxagoras, he expressed his questions about Greek religion in his plays. Beginning in 455, he was repeatedly chosen to compete in the dramatic festival of Dionysus; he won his first victory in 441. He competed 22 times, writing four plays for each occasion. Of his 92 plays, about 19 survive, including Medea (431), Hippolytus (428), Electra (418), The Trojan Women(415), Ion (413), Iphigenia at Aulis (406), and The Bacchae (406). Many of his plays include prologues and rely on a deus ex machina. Unlike Aeschylus and Sophocles, Euripides made his characters' tragic fates stem almost entirely from their own flawed natures and uncontrolled passions. In his plays chance, disorder, and human irrationality and immorality frequently result in apparently meaningless suffering that is looked on with indifference by the gods.From https://www.britannica.com/summary/Euripides. For more information about Euripides:“Euripides - Perseus Collection”: http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/collection?collection=Perseus%3Acorpus%3Aperseus%2Cauthor%2CEuripides“Hippolytus”: https://chs.harvard.edu/primary-source/euripides-hippolytus-sb/

Inspiring award-winning performances from your talent: Crossover applications to business leadership from the theatrical development process with Charles Newell, Artistic Director of Court Theatre in Chicago A CEO’s Virtual Mentor Episode 24   Welcome to Episode 24, Season 5, of the Leadership Lyceum: A CEO's Virtual Mentor®. I'm joined in the program today by Charles Newell, the Marilyn F. Vitale Artistic Director of the renowned and critically acclaimed Court Theatre in Chicago. This interview was recorded in the summer of 2019 as the Court Theatre's production of the play, The Adventures of Augie March, had completed its record-breaking performance run. We had intended to publish this episode early this year in 2020, but COVID hit and it seemed a little bold to put this out at the early stage of the pandemic. The world had other pressing items that deserved attention. But now, in the middle of the holiday season, we've been without live theater and entertainment for nine months, we thought this interview might be not only informative, but also soothing at this stage of the pandemic.   This interview is timeless and gets deep into a theatrical production's creative process as seen through the mind's eye of the director. In general, we, as an audience of entertainment, be it sports or the performing arts, are often spoiled with the perfection and professionalism of the finished product. But what is involved or required from a leadership perspective to develop and burnish the performance into the form to which we are also accustomed? What goes on in the business of theater has crossover applications to all business leaders. We'll cover a wide range of topics in today's program. We'll outline the organizational form of the Court Theatre, including its governance, funding and management structure. But the majority of our time will be spent stepping through the phases of the creation of a production from script selection to closing night.   Program Guide A CEO’s Virtual Mentor Episode 24 Inspiring award-winning performances from your talent with Charles Newell, Artistic Director of Court Theatre in Chicago 0:00     Introduction to the program and Charles Newell, Artistic Director of the Court Theatre in Chicago 3:20     Court Theatre’s history, governance structure, funding sources and unique structure with the University of Chicago. 5:09     Achieving high caliber of performances on a smaller budget than peers theater companies in Chicago 7:25     Unique mission and social-societal outcomes of Court Theatre in the realm of national theater. 10:39   Break 1 11:19   Phase 1 of the Theatrical Development Process: Finding and developing a script. 17:11   Break 2 17:27   Phase 2 of the Theatrical Development Process: Developing the look and feel of the production.

This week, we take a trip to the Underworld as we read the Greek-Mythology-inspired After Aulis, written by Aly Kantor. Many years after their fateful and unfortunate meeting at Aulis, the war hero Achilles and his almost-bride Iphigenia are reunited in the Underworld, where their roles before the war have been reversed, and they discuss what it truly means to be immortal. Aly talks about leaving behind a legacy, what it means to be an writer/educator/actor, and why All in the Timing is the greatest one act play collection of all time (and Jackson agrees).

Welcome to the second part of our discussion of Euripides’ The Trojan Women here on The Literary Life podcast. This week Angelina, Cindy and Thomas really get into the meat of the play. If you missed last week’s introduction episode, you will want to go back and listen to that first to set the stage, so to speak. Cindy and Angelina talk about how much emotion is evoked by Euripides’ portrayal of these women and their situation. Thomas brings in some of the surrounding myths that connect to the characters in this play, as well. Angelina and Cindy highlight the characteristics of Hecuba and Andromache amidst such trying circumstances. In discussing Helen’s role in the play, Cindy mentions a short story C. S. Lewis wrote about Helen of Troy called “After Ten Years.” It can be found in The Dark Tower: and Other Stories and Of Other Worlds: Essays and Stories. Our hosts share their emotional responses to the utter heartbreak of the mothers on top of the demise of Troy itself. (Amazon affiliate links are used in this content.) Commonplace Quotes: There are decades where nothing happens, and weeks where decades happen. Vladimir Lenin While affording some secrets of ‘the way of the will’ to young people, we should perhaps beware of presenting the ideas of ‘self-knowledge, self-reverence, and self-control.’ All adequate education must be outward bound, and the mind which is concentrated upon self-emolument, even though it be the emolument of all the virtues, misses the higher and the simpler secrets of life. Duty and service are the sufficient motives for the arduous training of the will that a child goes through with little consciousness. Charlotte Mason Perhaps the surest measure of O’Connor’s sense of calling was her willingness to be misunderstood. Jonathan Rogers All the World’s a Stage by William Shakespeare All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. At first the infant, Mewling and puking in the nurse’s arms; And then the whining school-boy, with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like snail Unwillingly to school. And then the lover, Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad Made to his mistress’ eyebrow. Then a soldier, Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the pard, Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel, Seeking the bubble reputation Even in the cannon’s mouth. And then the justice, In fair round belly with good capon lin’d, With eyes severe and beard of formal cut, Full of wise saws and modern instances; And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts Into the lean and slipper’d pantaloon, With spectacles on nose and pouch on side; His youthful hose, well sav’d, a world too wide For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice, Turning again toward childish treble, pipes And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all, That ends this strange eventful history, Is second childishness and mere oblivion; Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.

Lucretius Today -  Epicurus and Epicurean Philosophy
Episode 004 - Recap of Opening Sections Of Book One

Lucretius Today - Epicurus and Epicurean Philosophy

Play Episode Listen Later Feb 7, 2020 45:08


Episode Four of Lucretius Today is devoted to a review of what we have read so far, with special emphasis toward explaining how Epicurus was both a vigorous opponent of supernatural religion, while at the same time using himself the word "gods" to refer to true nature of what a divine being would be like if we happened some time in the future to fly out into space and come across one. Whatever else you may end up concluding about Epicurus' view of divine beings, we know for certain that Epicurus held that true divine beings are not supernatural; they did not create the universe, they do not control the universe, and they do not intervene in any way at all in the affairs of human beings.Whether you think the Epicurean theory of divine beings is interesting and helpful, or whether you it is irrelevant because they have no concern or connection with us, just keep in mind that whenever an ancient Epicurean referred to gods, we know for sure that those gods were nothing like Yahweh, or Jehovah, or Jesus, or Allah, or any of the standard definition of gods we use today.The part of the poem we have read so far from the 1743 Daniel Browne edition is as follows:MOTHER of Rome, Delight of Men and Gods, Sweet Venus; who with vital power does fill the sea bearing the ships, the fruitful Earth, all things beneath the rolling signs of Heaven; for it is by Thee that creatures of every kind conceive, rise into life, and view the Sun’s bright beams. Thee, Goddess, Thee the winds avoid; the clouds fly Thee and Thy approach. With various art the Earth, for Thee, affords her sweetest flowers; for Thee the sea’s rough waves put on their smiles, and the smooth sky shines with diffused light. For when the buxom Spring leads on the year, and genial gales of western winds blow fresh, unlocked from Winter’s cold, the airy birds first feel Thee, Goddess, and express thy power. Thy active flame strikes through their very souls. And then the savage beasts, with wanton play, frisk over the cheerful fields, and swim the rapid streams. So pleased with thy sweetness, so transported by thy soft charms, all living Nature strives, with sharp desire, to follow Thee, her Guide, where Thou art pleased to lead. In short, Thy power, inspiring every breast with tender love, drives every creature on with eager heat, in seas, in mountains, in swiftest floods, in leafy forests, and in verdant plains, to propagate their kind from age to age.Since Thou, alone, doest govern Nature’s laws, and nothing, without Thee, can rise to light, without Thee nothing can look gay or lovely; I beg Thee a companion to my lays, which now I sing of Nature, and I devote to my dear Memmius, whom Thou art ever pleased, sweet Goddess, to adorn with every grace. For him, kind Deity, inspire my song, and give immortal beauty to my verse. Meantime, the bloody tumults of the war, by sea and land, compose, and lay asleep. For Thou, alone, mankind, with quiet peace, canst bless; because it is Mars Armipotent that rules the bloody tumults of the war, and He, by everlasting pains of love, bound fast, tastes in Thy lap most sweet repose, turns back his smooth long neck, and views thy charms, and greedily sucks love at both his eyes. Supinely, as he rests, his very soul hangs on thy lips. This God, dissolved in ease, in the soft moments when thy heavenly limbs cling round him, melting with eloquence, caress, great Goddess, and implore a peace for Rome.For neither can I write with cheerful strains, in times so sad, nor can the noble House of Memmius desert the common good in such distress of things. The hours you spare, apply with close attention to my verse, and, free from care, receive true reason’s rules; nor these my gifts, prepared with faithful pains, reject with scorn before they are understood. For I begin to write of lofty themes, of Gods, and of the motions of the sky, the rise of things, how all things Nature forms, and how they grow, and to perfection rise, and into what, by the same Nature’s laws, those things resolve and die; which as I write I call by various names; sometimes it is matter, or the first principles, or seeds of things, or first of bodies, whence all else proceed.For the whole nature of the Gods must spend an Immortality in softest peace, removed from our affairs, and separated by distance infinite; from sorrow free; secure from danger; in its own happiness sufficient, and nothing of ours can want, is neither pleased with good, nor vexed with evil.Indeed mankind, in wretched bondage held, lay groveling on the ground, galled with the yoke of what is called Religion; from the sky this tyrant shewed her head, and with grim looks hung over us, poor mortals, here below; until a man of Greece, with steady eyes, dared look her in the face, and first opposed her power. Him not the fame of Gods, nor thunder’s roar, kept back, nor threatening tumults of the sky; but still the more they roused the active virtue of his aspiring soul, as he pressed forward, first to break through Nature's scanty bounds. His mind’s quick force prevailed; and so he passed by far the flaming limits of this world, and wandered with his comprehensive soul over all the mighty space; from thence returned, triumphant; told us what things may have a being, and what cannot; and how a finite power is fixed to each; a bound it cannot break. And so Religion, which we feared before, by him subdued, we tread upon in turn. His conquest makes us equal to the Gods.But in these things, I fear, you will suspect you are learning impious rudiments of reason, and entering in a road of wickedness. So, far from this, reflect what sad flagitious deeds Religion has produced. By her inspired, the Grecian chiefs, the first of men, at Aulis, Diana’s altar shamefully defiled with Iphigenia’s blood; her virgin hair a fillet bound, which hung in equal length on either side of her face. She saw her father, covered with sorrow, stand before the altar; for pity to his grief the butchering priests concealed the knife. The city, at the sight, overflowed with tears; the virgin, dumb with fear; fell low upon her knees on the hard Earth; in vain the wretched princess in distress pleaded that she first gave the honored name of Father to the King; but hurried off, and dragged by wicked hands, she, trembling, stood before the altar. Alas! not as a virgin, the solemn forms being duly done, drawn with pleasing force to Hymen’s noble rites, but a chaste maid, just ripe for nuptial joy, falls a sad victim, by a father’s hand, only to beg a kind propitious gale for Grecian ships. Such scenes of villainy Religion could inspire!

The text that will be covered in Episode Three appears beginning at approximately line 81 of the Latin edition of Book One.1743 Daniel Browne Version: But in these things, I fear, you will suspect you are learning impious rudiments of reason, and entering in a road of wickedness. So, far from this, reflect what sad flagitious deeds Religion has produced. By her inspired, the Grecian chiefs, the first of men, at Aulis, Diana’s altar shamefully defiled with Iphigenia’s blood; her virgin hair a fillet bound, which hung in equal length on either side of her face. She saw her father, covered with sorrow, stand before the altar; for pity to his grief the butchering priests concealed the knife. The city, at the sight, overflowed with tears; the virgin, dumb with fear; fell low upon her knees on the hard Earth; in vain the wretched princess in distress pleaded that she first gave the honored name of Father to the King; but hurried off, and dragged by wicked hands, she, trembling, stood before the altar. Alas! not as a virgin, the solemn forms being duly done, drawn with pleasing force to Hymen’s noble rites, but a chaste maid, just ripe for nuptial joy, falls a sad victim, by a father’s hand, only to beg a kind propitious gale for Grecian ships. Such scenes of villainy Religion could inspire!Munro Version: This is what I fear herein, lest haply you should fancy that you are entering on unholy grounds of reason and treading the path of sin; whereas on the contrary often and often that very religion has given birth to sinful and unholy deeds. Thus in Aulis the chosen chieftains of the Danai, foremost of men, foully polluted with Iphianassa’s blood the altar of the Trivian maid. Soon as the fillet encircling her maiden tresses shed itself in equal lengths down each cheek, and soon as she saw her father standing sorrowful before the altars and beside him the ministering priests hiding the knife and her countrymen at sight of her shedding tears, speechless in terror she dropped down on her knees and sank to the ground. Nor aught in such a moment could it avail the luckless girl that she had first bestowed the name of father on the king. For lifted up in the hands of the men she was carried shivering to the altars, not after due performance of the customary rites to be escorted by the clear-ringing bridal song, but in the very season of marriage, stainless maid mid the stain of blood, to fall a sad victim by the sacrificing stroke of a father, that thus a happy and prosperous departure might be granted to the fleet. So great the evils to which religion could prompt!Bailey Version: Herein I have one fear, lest perchance you think that you are starting on the principles of some unholy reasoning, and setting foot upon the path of sin. Nay, but on the other hand, again and again our foe, religion, has given birth to deeds sinful and unholy. Even as at Aulis the chosen chieftains of the Danai, the first of all the host, foully stained with the blood of Iphianassa the altar of the Virgin of the Cross-Roads. For as soon as the band braided about her virgin locks streamed from her either cheek in equal lengths, as soon as she saw her sorrowing sire stand at the altar’s side, and near him the attendants hiding their knives, and her countrymen shedding tears at the sight of her, tongue-tied with terror, sinking on her knees she fell to earth. Nor could it avail the luckless maid at such a time that she first had given the name of father to the king. For seized by men’s hands, all trembling was she led to the altars, not that, when the ancient rite of sacrifice was fulfilled, she might be escorted by the clear cry of ‘Hymen’, but in the very moment of marriage, a pure victim she might foully fall, sorrowing beneath a father’s slaughtering stroke, that a happy and hallowed starting might be granted to the fleet. Such evil deeds could religion prompt.

Med inspiration från tidig renässans och medeltid, skapade prerafaeliterna konst som var motsägelsefull på många sätt. Hur kunde den rymma religiositet, radikala idéer, sex och natur på samma gång? På Prins Eugens Waldemarsudde i Stockholm har det i helgen öppnat en ny utställning, "Edward Burne-Jones Prerafaeliterna och Norden". Det är den första utställningen i Skandinavien med konst och design av konstnären Edward Burne-Jones, som var elev till en av en förgrundsgestalterna bland prerafaeliterna, Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Burne-Jones fick inflytande i Norden, både med sin konst och den roll han hade inom Arts and crafts-rörelsen. Konstnären Helena Blomqvist, som inspirerats av Prerafaeliterna, kommer till studion tillsammans med P1 Kulturs konstkritiker Cecilia Blomberg för ett samtal om en tämligen udda, men fantasieggande konstströmning. Det har varit stor premiärhelg på de svenska teaterscenerna och P1 Kultur har varit på Göteborgs stadsteater, där vår kritiker Mia Gerdin har sett Eugene ONeills familjedrama "Långdags färd mot natt" i regi av Emil Graffman.

Inga nya kulturreservat och mindre än hälften så många nya byggnadsminnen som tidigare. Det kan vår reporter Joakim Silverdal berätta om i dagens reportage om läget när det gäller bevarandet av landets kulturmiljö.

Donald Macleod explores the music, and what little is known of the life, of Baroque master Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber. Biber’s first appearance in the historical records is in his early 20s, when we find him in the service of Karl Liechtenstein, prince-bishop of Olomouc in central Moravia. In this week’s episode, we meet Biber as he runs an errand for his boss, but mysteriously absconds en route, trading in his old employer for a new and even more illustrious one, Prince-Archbishop Maximilian Gandolph von Küenburg. In Salzburg, Biber put down roots, married the daughter of a wealthy local businessman, fathered eleven children and gradually rose through the court ranks to become Kapellmeister. His risky career-gamble had paid off. Donald introduces us to the musical legacy the elusive composer left behind, playing Biber’s best-known work (his Mystery, or Rosary, Sonatas) as well as his music for church and stage. We also learn about his close relationships with the violin and his home of Salzburg, and the five remarkable printed collections of instrumental music that spread his name across Europe. Music featured: Missa Alleluia (Kyrie) Sonata ‘La pastorella’ Battalia a 10 (Sonata di marche) Sonata violino solo representativa Partita VI in D (Harmonia Artificioso-Ariosa) The Rosary Sonatas: The Five Joyful Mysteries Passacaglia in G minor for unaccompanied violin Vesperae longiores ac breviores, 1693 Arminio, or Chi la dura la vince (extracts) Litaniae Sancto Josepho Sonata No 11 in A (Sonatae tam Aris, quam Aulis servientes) Partita No 3 in A minor (Mensa sonoris, seu Musica instrumentalis) Sonata No 3 in F (Sonatae violino solo) Sonata No 12 in A major (Fidicinium sacro-profanum) Partita No 1 in D minor (Harmonia artificioso-ariosa) Balletti a 6 (1. Sonata) Missa Salisburgensis Sonata a 7 Sonata Sancti Polycarpi Presented by Donald Macleod Produced by Chris Barstow for BBC Wales For full tracklistings, including artist and recording details, and to listen to the pieces featured in full (for 30 days after broadcast) head to the series page for Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0003rq6 And you can delve into the A-Z of all the composers we’ve featured on Composer of the Week here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/3cjHdZlXwL7W41XGB77X3S0/composers-a-to-z

THE STORY: (45 minutes) In this horrifying episode Agamemnon, Commander in Chief of the Greek’s Operation Trojan Storm, is confronted with an existential question. How badly does he want to invade Troy, and who or what is he willing to sacrifice in order to realize his plans? THE COMMENTARY: MURDER, INCEST, INFIDELITY & CANNIBALISM – AGAMEMNON’S INTERESTING FAMILY! (16 minutes; begins at 45:00) This deeply troubling episode is based on the story of the sacrifice of Iphigenia – Agamemnon’s teenage daughter. In the post-story commentary I explore how two different Athenian dramatists used the broad outlines of the well-known “Iphigenia story” to craft their own unique plays. I first look at Aeschylus’ Agamemnon (458 B.C.E.), and explain why I chose to follow his general plot outline in narrating my own account of the story. Then I turn to Euripides’ Iphigenia at Aulis (405 B.C.E.), seeking (and finding) a much happier and less horrifying account of the story I have just told. I leave you the listener to decide which of the two versions you find more compelling and believable – because of course, none of us will never know what really happened on that beach at Aulis. Finally I turn to a quick account of Agamemnon’s absolutely horrifying family: the House of Atreus. Starting with Agamemnon’s great grandfather, then down through the generations to Agamemnon himself, I recount a family predilection for murder, incest, infidelity and cannibalism. I discuss the Bronze Age belief that “the sins of the fathers are visited upon the sons” to account for the horrifying intergenerational curse of the House of Atreus. Because of my “no plot spoilers” promise, I conclude my review of the curse with Agamemnon himself, but promise listeners that in later episodes of Trojan War: The Podcast, Agamemnon’s descendants will carry on the proud family history of horrifying deeds.

Performed in Athens in the last years of the Peloponnesian War and when Athens had a democracy, Euripides’ Iphigenia in Aulis is appropriately a play about decision-making. In this lecture Dr Heather Sebo traces the dramatic events in Iphigenia in Aulis leading up to the departure of the Greek fleet for Troy. Although based on a myth, Euripides’ play has never ceased to be relevant in terms of its examination of the dilemmas and circumstances in which human beings become enmeshed.
