"Bellerophon – Gedichte" - Jan-Eike Hornauer und Uwe Kullnick sprechen mit Christian Dörr – Lyrik on Stage(Hördauer ca. 57 Min.)Den Alten galt der Bellerophon-Mythos gleich dem des Herakles. Meist gerät der Held erst zum Ende in die Verwirrung. In Christian Dörrs Gedichtzyklus tritt sie jedoch auf dem Höhepunkt ein: Mit einem Sturz des Helden vom Pegasos endet der anvisierte Gipfelsturm. Nur das geflügelte Pferd erreicht den Olymp und wird zum Sternbild erhoben. Der Gefallene überlebt den Sturz schwer verletzt, zieht sich von Menschen und Göttern zurück. Wer ihm begegnet, ahnt dennoch, dass er es mit einem besonderen Liebling der Götter zu tun hat.Christian Dörr (*1967 in Wertheim am Main) ist ein deutscher Schriftsteller, Lyriker und Pädagoge. Nach dem Abitur am humanistischen Ludwigsgymnasium München leistete er Zivildienst in der Schwerstbehindertenbetreuung, bevor er an der LMU München Philosophie, Germanistik, Komparatistik und Orientalistik studierte. Prägende Jahre verbrachte er zwischen 1990 und 2005 auf Reisen durch den Mittelmeerraum und Vorderen Orient, insbesondere in Italien, der Türkei und Syrien, wo er sich intensiv mit Sufismus und hinduistischer Mystik auseinandersetzte.2005 gründete er den Verein Hafis e.V., der sich für Bildungschancen junger Migrant:innen einsetzt, und arbeitet parallel als Berufsfindungscoach. Sein literarisches Schaffen umfasst drei Gedichtbände: Melusinen im Kopf (2019) und Buddha in Nachbars Garten (2021) im Anthea Verlag sowie Bellerophon (2022, mit Linolschnitten von Steffen Büchner) in der Lyrik-Edition NEUN. Seine Gedichtfilme, produziert mit Krunoslav Ruf, veröffentlicht er auf seinem YouTube-Kanal „Christian Dörr-Poetrycast“.Dörrs Werk verbindet mythologische Motive (etwa Melusinen oder Bellerophon) mit zeitgenössischen Themen wie Migration und Naturbetrachtung, oft inspiriert von seinen Sehnsuchtsorten Rom und Venedig. Eine unveröffentlichte Übersetzung der indischen Mystikerin Mirabai sowie Kinderlehrbücher für Hafis e.V. runden sein Œuvre ab.Moderatoren Uwe Kullnick und Jan-Eike Hornauer**als Redakteur Lyrik neu hinzugekommen: Jan-Eike Hornauer, geboren 1979, leidenschaftlicher Textzüchter (freier Lektor, Texter, Autor, Herausgeber), wohnt in München.

In this episode of Fintech Chatter, Dexter Cousins chats to Nathan Walsh and Michael Starkey, Co-Founders of Athena Home Loans.Making their long awaited return to the show, Nathan and Michael discuss their journey over the past four years, and the insane challenges they've had to navigate as interest rates rose rapidly and funding markets dried up. According to Wikipedia Athena was the patron goddess of heroic endeavor; she was believed to have aided the heroes Perseus, Heracles, Bellerophon, and Jason. She may have also aided Michael and Nathan over this last few years!We ask Nathan and Michael the tough questions like how do you compete with banks, balance innovation with regulatory requirements, navigating the rapid interest rate rises since 2022, and the importance of partnerships.

We launch into the opening salvos of the Badab War proper. We examine the tactics and temprement of the Fire Hawks and their penchant for genocide, and the expanding ambitions of the Karthan lords. The Marines Errant join the fray for the loyalists and the Executioners reluctantly join for the secessionists. We look at the hit and run tactics of the Mantis Warriors and the ultimately ill-fated battle on and above Bellerophon's Fall. With the space marine chapters engaging each other, the Karthan lords launch a final tithe raiding fleet, which ends in “hilarious consequence”. The failure of the loyalist forces draws attention from the High Lords of Terra itself, which dispatches a Triumvirate of Legates to adjudicate who is at fault and what needs to happen. We close out the episode with the “local issue” being upgraded to an official “rebellion”.Show notes PatreonMerchandiseQuartermaster
Mike Faloon and Lexy Van Dyke join Mike to wrap up Sci-Fi July with one of the classics of the genre, Forbidden Planet (1956). A loose adaptation of Shakespeare's The Tempest, the film stars Leslie Nielsen as Commander J.J. Adams. He and his crew land upon a planet in the Altair system where they look for survivors from the spaceship Bellerophon. There they discover just Professor Morbius (Walter Pidgeon), his daughter Altaria (Anne Francis), and their robot servant (Robby). There's a mystery afoot and it's up to Commander Adams and his gang of goofy astronauts to solve it.

Deacon Harrison Garlick and Adam Minihan sit down to talk about Hector returning to Troy.In this episode we will discuss:What happens in book six?What should be noted in the duel between Glaucus and Diomedes?What may be noted in Helen's lament to Prince Hector?What lesson does Homer provide by Hector returning to Troy?Is Homer presenting Hector as a virtuous character?Book SixHector Returns to TroyAlways be the best, my boy, the bravest, and hold your head up high above the others. Never disgrace the generation of your fathers.Hippolochus to Glaucus, his son (6.247)35. What happens in book six of the Iliad?Pressed against an Achaean advance led by Ajax and Diomedes, Hector and Aeneas receive word of an omen from Helenus, son of Priam, the seer (6.88). The Trojan army is to hold the line, while Hector is to return to Troy and direct his mother, the queen of Troy, to arrange a sacrifice to Athena—a sacrifice to entice the goddess of wisdom to pity Troy and hold back Diomedes (6.102). Hector obeys and returns to the palace of Priam—a magnificent structure that houses the fifty sons and twelve daughters of King Priam (6.291). Hector tells Hecuba, his mother and queen of Troy, to perform the sacrifice (6.318). It is notable that she is to lay before Athena the robe she personally prizes the most, which illuminates the personal sacrifice being ask of her (6.323). Hecuba obeys, but Athena refuses to listen to the Trojan prayers (6.366). It is not unremarkable that Homer immediately follows Athena's rejection with the introduction of Paris into the narrative (6.368). Hector chastises Paris—who has remained in his bedroom since his duel with Menelaus—and exhorts him to return to the war (6.383). Before returning to the war, Hector visits his wife, Andromache, and his son Scamandrius, who the Trojans affectionately call the “Lord of the City” (6.477). Hector then rendezvouses with his brother, Paris, and returns to fight the Achaeans (6.601).36. What should be noted in the duel between Glaucus and Diomedes?After we see Hector begins his return to Troy, we are introduced to the duel between Glaucus, the Trojan, and Diomedes, the Achaean (6.138). Diomedes, whom Homer gives the epithet usually reserved for Menelaus—“the lord of the war cry”—taunts his opponent but notably gives the caveat he will not fight a deathless god in disguise (6.148). He is still obedient to Athena's command to not fight the gods—save Aphrodite (5.142). At first, Glaucus provides a somewhat nihilistic response, stating, in part, “like the generations of leaves, the lives of mortal men” (6.171). He then, however, begins his lineage with Sisyphus, “the wiliest man alive,” who is a prominent figure in Greek mythology (6.180). To wit, Sisyphus had a habit of wanting to outsmart the gods, and this resulted in him being damned to Hades to roll a stone up a hill (only to have it roll back down) for all eternity. His son, Glaucus (the great-grandfather of the Glaucus dueling Diomedes) decided to habituate his horses to eating “human flesh to make them fierce in battle.” For this horrific act, the gods ensured Glaucus was tossed from his chariot and devoured by his own horses. His son Bellerophon, who may have been sired by Poseidon instead, is a classic hero in Greek mythology. The narrative of Antea being unable to seduce Bellerophon but then blaming him for lusting after her (6.188) bears many similarities with the Hebrew story of Joseph and Potiphar's wife (Gen 39:5-20). Bellerophon carries his own death sentence to Antea's father, and the...

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for November 15, 2023 is: chimera kye-MEER-uh noun In Greek mythology, Chimera is a fire-breathing monster that has a lion's head, a goat's body, and a snake's tail. In general contexts, chimera can refer to something (such as an aspiration) that exists only in the imagination and is not possible in reality. // The fantasy is a utopian chimera, but there are real improvements for the town that can be made. See the entry > Examples: “For years, consumer advocates maintained that giving subscribers a la carte options from cable menus instead of the one-size-fits-all model would save people money. Alas, this nirvana has proved to be a chimera. Streaming channels have peeled off from cable lineups and established their own individualized subscription services, with the result that what used to be bundled together in premium tiers are now separate charges.” — Michael Hiltzik, The Los Angeles Times, 17 Apr. 2023 Did you know? “In head and shoulders, she was like a lion, / in back and tail, a snake, and in the middle, / a she-goat, and she breathed a dreadful blast / of blazing fire.” So did Homer describe the fearsome Chimera in The Iliad (as translated by scholar Emily Wilson in 2023). The Chimera terrorized the people of Lycia until slain by the hero Bellerophon, but the beast lived on in people's imaginations, and English speakers adopted her name for any monster similarly composed of the parts of different animals. Later, chimera took on another meaning that is common in today's lexicon: “an illusion of the mind, especially an unrealized dream.” This sense of chimera is often used to refer to a fantasy or delusion.

Peace by Aristophanes audiobook. The 'Peace' was brought out four years after 'The Acharnians' (422 B.C.), when the War had already lasted ten years. The leading motive is the same as in the former play—the intense desire of the less excitable and more moderate-minded citizens for relief from the miseries of war. Trygaeus, a rustic patriot, finding no help in men, resolves to ascend to heaven to expostulate personally with Zeus for allowing this wretched state of things to continue. With this object he has fed and trained a gigantic dung-beetle, which he mounts, and is carried, like Bellerophon on Pegasus, on an aerial journey. Eventually he reaches Olympus, only to find that the gods have gone elsewhere, and that the heavenly abode is occupied solely by the demon of War, who is busy pounding up the Greek States in a huge mortar. However, his benevolent purpose is not in vain; for learning from Hermes that the goddess Peace has been cast into a pit, where she is kept a fast prisoner, he calls upon the different peoples of Hellas to make a united effort and rescue her, and with their help drags her out and brings her back in triumph to earth. The play concludes with the restoration of the goddess to her ancient honours, the festivities of the rustic population and the nuptials of Trygaeus with Opora (Harvest), handmaiden of Peace, represented as a pretty courtesan. Such references as there are to Cleon in this play are noteworthy. The great Demagogue was now dead, having fallen in the same action as the rival Spartan general, the renowned Brasidas, before Amphipolis, and whatever Aristophanes says here of his old enemy is conceived in the spirit of 'de mortuis nil nisi bonum.' In one scene Hermes is descanting on the evils which had nearly ruined Athens and declares that 'The Tanner' was the cause of them all. But Trygaeus interrupts him with the words: "Hold-say not so, good master Hermes; Let the man rest in peace where now he lies. He is no longer of our world, but yours." Here surely we have a trait of magnanimity on the author's part as admirable in its way as the wit and boldness of his former attacks had been in theirs.
Prophecy Radio episode #51 gets into our next Monster Guide, this time about Echidna and the Chimera. Karen and Kristen also tackle all the latest news, including the title for the Solangelo book, The Sun and the Star: A Nico di Angelo Adventure, as well as discuss Percy Jackson and the Last Olympian chapter 6. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and all ages are welcome to tune in. News and Updates (00:02:25) You Only Live Once, David Bravo by Mark Oshiro is now out in the world! What does Read Riordan think of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians teaser trailer? (Check out Prophecy Radio episode #49 for our breakdown.) The same people producing Percy Jackson will also be adapting The Ring and the Crown by Melissa de la Cruz. Mark Oshiro confirms the Solangelo book title is The Sun and the Star: A Nico di Angelo Adventure! And yes, it's probably a reference to Bob. What's the last we saw from Nico and Will? (Listen to Prophecy Radio episode #5.) Monster Guide: Echidna and the Chimera (00:16:38) We decided to put these two creatures together because they kind of go hand-in-claw. This episode is surprisingly relevant to our current reading because Typhon (aka Typhoeus) was her husband. You can pretty much thank Echidna for all the famous Greek monsters you know. We definitely question the anatomy of the Chimera. Sorry, King Amisodarus, but you kind of had it coming. Bellerophon seems like an interesting hero, and we can thank him for killing the Chimera. How did Rick Riordan depict Echidna? We wonder if they'll change her appearance for the show. Are Kampê and Echidna related? Echidna may have stepped out on Typhon to have the Sphinx. Believe it or not, Echidna and the Chimera are one of the only monsters not defeated and sent to Tartarus in all of the Camp Half-Blood Chronicles. How is the Chimera depicted in Percy Jackson and the Olympians? Do monsters adapt their appearances to better scare modern demigods? Mark us down for not wanting to go up against a monster with human intelligence. Chimeras are totally a real thing in the science world. We're always gonna shout out Teen Wolf, and this week we get to do it because they also had chimeras on the show. Percy Jackson and the Last Olympian discussion (00:38:58) It's that time of the week—let's discuss Percy Jackson and the Last Olympian chapter 6. Do you think you'd like Shadow Travel as much as Percy? We need some little monster Beanie Babies from Disney now. Luke's mom is a little scary, especially her eyes. How does this whole Oracle thing work, and is this why the Oracle in the attic is just a dead body? What did we think of Hestia and what she was trying to impart on Percy? Did you realize we've seen her before? If you didn't already love Nico, how could you resist now? Hestia really is a different kind of goddess, and we love that. Paul and Mrs. O'Leary on the same page is just too much adorableness for us to process coherently. Poor Sally has to make a huge decision, and we're kind of glad she's hesitating? The Empire State Building lighting up blue in our world means SO much more now. Feedback (01:13:26) We get a wonderful email from Jubilee, who gives us a What If scenario from Lightning Thief. Nephele lets us know the Iliad and Odyssey mention that the gods have their own language, and we definitely want to know more! Mac also wonders if the symbols will transform into numbers on the flags on the cabins. Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 52, where we'll come up with some ideas for a Percy Jackson board game. This episode's hosts are: Karen Rought and Kristen Kranz.

Demons cannot tell us who Jesus really is. Science cannot tell us who Jesus really is. Our emotions cannot tell us who Jesus really is. Jesus cannot and will not be known in these ways. Look at how people try to get to heaven to know God, and, like the mythological Bellerophon, they come crashing to earth.

In Greek mythology, the creature known as the chimera is a fire-breathing female monster that attacked Lycia and Caria. It was later killed by Bellerophon. Some western scholars of Chinese art, starting with Victor Segalen, use the word "chimera" generically to refer to winged leonine or mixed species quadrupeds, such as Bixie, Tianlu, Ky Lan and even Qilin.The most common description of the chimera comes from Homer's Illiad, in which the creature is said to have the head of a lion, the body of a goat, and tail of a snake. Despite being classified as a female, the lion's head has a mane which is typical of male lions.The Chimera's origins are highly disputed and its genealogy has never been formally agreed upon. According to Hesiod, the Chimera's mother was a certain ambiguous "she", which may refer to Echidna, in which case the father would presumably be Typhon, though possibly the Hydra or even Ceto was meant instead.Other accounts say that Chimera was the child of Typhoeus and Echidna and sibling of Cerberus and the Lernaean Hydra. There are several different genealogies—in one version, it mated with its brother, Orthrus, and mothered the Sphinx and the Nemean Lion.Read more at https://mythlok.com/chimera/

Today we have episode 7 of our Iconic Ships mini-series in which a curator of a historic ship makes a case for their ship being iconic, or a historian takes a ship from history but which sadly no longer survives and make a case for that ship being iconic. HMS Bellerophon - known fondly as the Billy Ruffian - was a Third 74-gun ship of the line with one of the most extraordinary careers of any warship in the great age of sail. She was the first ship to engage the Revolutionary French at The Glorious First of June in 1794; she made up the fleet under Horatio Nelson, hunting the French and assisting in their destruction at the Battle of the Nile in 1798; and she fought under Nelson once more against the combined French and Spanish at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. As well as these larger events, she spent time on blockade duty off the coast of France, defended the West Indies whilst based on the Jamaica Station and kept an eye on the Spanish, in Cadiz. She transported Napoleon Bonaparte to Britain after his surrender in 1815, perhaps one of the events she is most renowned for, before ending up as a Prison Hulk on the Medway and then later in Plymouth.The story is told today by naval historian Kate Jamieson who you can (and should) all follow on Twitter @Kejamieson_ See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Today, Lucy Branch talks to Amy Goodman, who is probably known best for her Equestrian sculptures such as the much loved, Romsey War Horse and Pegasus and Bellerophon, but to only mention them would do her a huge dis-service as she's also the creator of some incredible military monuments, portraits as well as breath-taking abstract sculpture. Her focus is always to capture the movement and character of her subjects whether that's bronze portraiture or a few lines of steel. Join us for a In this episode and BE INSPIRED BY SCULPTURE as Amy discusses her creative journey and motivation to become a sculptor, her inspiration and what it takes to be a professional sculptor.

Amy Goodman: Yes, I've always loved art. I love drawing, painting and making things. Also, from a really young age I was resolving ideas in 3D, making sculptural objects like animals and horses. I've always loved to challenge myself by making really complicated things, and nature has always fascinated me. So really, even though I was academic, I always gravitated towards the arts. When I got to the GCSE and A-level phase later on in school, arts, pottery and sculpture were the subjects that I naturally went into. Lucy Branch: Fantastic. So was there somebody, like a role model at home, that kindled that interest? Amy Goodman: I think it was always in me. My mum could draw and get a likeness of things and I believe my grandfather, who I didn't know very well, was quite a talented painter in his spare time. But really, it was something that I'd always just gravitated to and had an affinity with. I used to get accused of watching, I think I was a natural observer. I loved to watch what was going on around me and record it. For instance, in my pottery classes when I was 15, I loved to stay after school late into the evening. I just was fascinated by it. I had to make the most complicated things possible. I once made a “George and the dragon” with outstretched wings, and I gave George a lance for the poor dragon. I loved the challenge, how you have to be an engineer. You've got to think about balance and center of gravity, although I didn't have words for them back then. You've really got to know about balance of form and volume, and how they relate to each other, to have a successful freestanding sculpture.
Monica Rodgers talks to Dr. Catherine Blackledge about the unsung power of the vagina. One of the greatest pieces of unconscious conditioning we have in western culture is that we do not teach our girls to name the source of her feminine power. If anything we are taught to call our genitals by colloquialisms such as Coochie, Privates, Down There, Front-Bottom - the list goes on. Those who were given a more "scientific" term were often taught to call it “vagina,” a sterile and clinical word that is also physiologically incorrect. Worse, the majority of women are taught to call it nothing at all, and not to refer to it, look at it, or know it's magic, and this had had a devastating impact. Personally, I didn't have the courage to look at my own vagina until I was in my 40s. In my world, it wasn't something that was talked about growing up, and as far as I was concerned, there was some kind of disgust that permeated any reference to my nether region. How tragic to finally reach the age of almost 50 years old and recognize that it's only just in the last few years that I have begun to reveal and heal my own inner misogyny. I use that word deliberately because it's true, we live in a world that teaches a woman to hate herself, and to think less of herself based on her gender. I consider Dr. Catherine Blackledge a true visionary. To me, a visionary is someone who sees the missing link. They understand the fundamental missing piece, sometimes years and even decades before others catch on. Dr. Blackledge was inspired to write her book almost 17 years ago, and she has since become an internationally acclaimed author of the bestselling book, Raising The Skirt, The Unsung Power of the Vagina, which celebrates the beauty and power of the vagina and womanhood and reveals how the true extent of vaginal and female power has been forgotten, ignored and misrepresented. Raising The Skirt was originally published in 2003 as the story of V and has sold over 100,000 copies in 13 countries. Women describe it as their Bible and say it has saved their lives. Show notes: The term Anasyrma means "raising the skirts" or the showing of genitals, and this act of a woman exposing herself has many historical roots referring to a women's innate power to ward off evil, defeat armies, or harness supernatural powers. * In Gaelic and Greek mythology, groups of women raised their skirts en masse to defeat Irish sun god Cúchulain and Greek hero Bellerophon, respectively. Ancient and modern history relate how women deploy the raising the skirt gesture in protest and as a military tactic. Just over sixty years ago, in 1958, seven thousand women in west Cameroon, Africa raised their skirts in an incredible display of vaginal power to protest against government regulations changing for the worse the way the women farmed their land. The women won. * The idea of the vagina as a passive vessel, a simple sheath to surround the penis, is one of science's greatest misconceptions. We have to get past women being so undervalued in the world and help women know how powerful we are as not only the portal of life, but as a being who has an extraordinary amount of wisdom, power and influence. There is still a tremendous amount of misinformation out there and very little about the true anatomy of the vagina. The clitoris, for example, is a massive wishbone structure that is seated deeply into the pelvis, not simply a small nub at the top of the vagina. Catherine understood at an early age that the vagina was being misrepresented and set out to understand why and reveal a deeper truth. When Catherine initially told people she wanted to write about it, people could not even say the word, even her publishers. Catherine believes the word Veranda should be brought back - it's an older term that was used for female genitalia, meaning "parts inspiring awe, respect or reverence." Catherine believes having a positive, respectful word for the vagina, which girls and women feel comfortable and confident using is a vital first step to female empowerment and being proud of what we have between our legs. Catherine discovered many wonderful scientific facts, such as men, also have a clitoris, it's what causes the penis to become erect. Catherine shares her own personal story of becoming infertile due to an STD that went undetected when she was young. She believes that if there were not such a stigma around women's sexuality that this could have been avoided. The Pink Pussy Hats worn in the Women's March is a modern-day representation of Raising the Skirts.
