I ruinerna av det krossade Karthago vandrar Tobias Svanelid och Richard Holmgren bland antika bad och gladiatorarenor. Roms ärkefiende blev romerskt. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Det tredje puniska kriget innebar Karthagos undergång, även om det där med att plöja ner salt i åkrarna nog var en överdrift, menar arkeologen Richard Holmgren. Men några generationer efter stadens fall återuppstod Karthago som en romersk stad, med typiska badhus, och med amfiteatrar där Hannibals elefanter hetsades mot Atlaslejon. Resterna av detta romerska Karthago syns betydligt tydligare än de äldre lämningarna och berättar om en imperialistisk politik för 2000 år sedan.Men allt i den feniciska kulturen försvann inte med Karthagos fall, deras alfabet lever vidare i vårt eget, avslutar Richard Holmgren på Hannibalstationen i det moderna Tunis.

Följ med Tobias Svanelid, Richard Holmgren och Hannibal på en vådlig marsch över Alperna i det andra puniska kriget - antikens supermaktskonflikt. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Efter sekler av ökade spänningar bröt det första av tre krig mellan Rom och Karthago ut år 264 f Kr. Vetenskapsradion Historia återvänder till en av krigsskådeplatserna - krigshamnen i Karthago varifrån enorma flottor skeppades ut för att kämpa med romerska skepp om makten över Medelhavet. Hör också om de ikoniska nordafrikanska elefanterna och deras vådliga marsch över Alperna, om Hannibals krigslister på den Italiska halvön och om Karthagos undergång vid slaget vid Zama år 202 f Kr.I del 2 av Expedition Karthago fokuserar arkeologen Richard Holmgren och Tobias Svanelid på det första och andra av de Puniska krigen, stormaktsdrabbningarna som omformade maktbalansen i Medelhavsområdet.

Vi diskuterar Kobbie Mainoos roll och framtid, Hannibals roll, Sancho som falsk nia och sedan silly season: Varför Höjlund framför Kane? Rätt att sälja Elanga? Det och mycket mer i veckans avsnitt. Lyssna gärna!

När fredsfördraget efter första puniska kriget signerats 241 f.v.t. stod det klart att maktbalansen mellan den Romerska republiken och Karthago i grunden hade förändrats. Rom hade under det nästan 20 år långa kriget om Sicilien under det första puniska kriget utvecklats till en sjömakt i medelhavsområdet, medan Karthago hade förlorat sin flotta, blivit tvungna att betala ett enormt skadestånd, och politiskt och symboliskt förnedrats i grunden. På land hade dock Karthago egentligen inte besegrats av Rom, och snart föddes en idé i Karthago om att via fastlandet istället nå Rom och därigenom ta revansch. Särskilt angelägen var den unge Hannibal som ville hämnas sin fars och Karthagos öde.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden diskuterar idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved och professorn i historia Martin Hårdstedt det andra puniska kriget.Mycket talade för att Rom skulle vara känsligt om det anfölls norrifrån. Under perioden mellan det första och andra puniska kriget kämpade den romerska republiken med att freda de med Rom numera allierade stadsstaterna från de keltiska gallerna i de norra delarna av den italienska halvön. Samtidigt hade Karthago allt mer etablerat sig i på den Iberiska halvön och därifrån byggt upp en maktbas med tillgång till både soldater och resurser. Genom att utgå från den spanska östkusten, och på vägen alliera sig med de keltiska gallerna tänkte sig Hannibal således att läget för en marsch genom den norra Medelhavskusten, genom alperna, och ner till Rom var mycket gynnsamt. Med sig hade Hannibal ca 50000 man, varav 40000 var infanterister och 9000 bestod av kavalleri.Hannibals kalkyl skulle visa sig vara helt rätt. Trots att marschen genom alperna blev kostsam för hären lyckades Hannibal överraska och i grunden slå de arméer som den Romerska republiken lyckades uppbåda på sitt eget territorium. Vid tre avgörande slag slog Hannibal de romerska arméerna i grund, varav det mest kända är slaget vid Cannae, år 216 f.v.t. Att vinna slagen är dock inte samma sak som att vinna krigen, och under 20 års tid skulle Hannibal bli sittande i den södra halvan av den italienska halvön i väntan på ett avgörande. Att vinna stöd bland stadsstaterna och därigenom splittra Roms allianser visade sig också vara svårt när de förde keltiska galler med sig i leden. Hatet mot Hannibals allierade och rädslan för Roms repressalier var antagligen större än de fördelar en frigörelse skulle innebära.Rom beslutade sig så småningom att tolerera den Karthagiska härens närvaro och började driva kriget dels med gerillataktiker, och dels mot periferin i stället. Genom att slå mot Hannibals underhållslinjer, och till slut föra kriget till den afrikanska nordkusten istället, blev Hannibal snart isolerad och tvungen att lämna. Avsaknaden av en Karthagisk flotta som kunde understödja Hannibals krigsföretag visade sig till slut vara avgörande, samtidigt som Rom hela tiden förvägrade Hannibal något definitivt avgörande.Bild: Målning av slaget vid Zama av Cornelis Cort, 1567.

Last time we spoke about the battle of Komandorski islands. Admirals Kinkaid and McMorris began a naval blockade of Attu and Kiska putting the IJN in a terrible bind. They could either give up the Aleutians, or they would have to reinforce them, either of which came at huge costs. Admiral Hosogaya had no choice but to try and breach the allied blockade to get the much needed reinforcements to the frozen islands. Hosogaya's fleet was superior in numbers and firepower to that of McMorris when they fatefully met in the frigid northern seas. Yet by a stroke of luck, a single man fired a High Explosive shell during the heat of battle causing Hosogaya to make a terrible blunder. Under the impression allied airpower was about to attack them, Hosogaya backed off, losing the chance to claim a major victory. And today we are going to venture, behind the desk so to speak.  This episode is the Pacific Military Conference: MacArthur vs King Welcome to the Pacific War Podcast Week by Week, I am your dutiful host Craig Watson. But, before we start I want to also remind you this podcast is only made possible through the efforts of Kings and Generals over at Youtube. Perhaps you want to learn more about world war two? Kings and Generals have an assortment of episodes on world war two and much more  so go give them a look over on Youtube.

If you are still hungry for some more history related content, over on my channel, the Pacific War Channel you can find a few videos all the way from the Opium Wars of the 1800's until the end of the Pacific War in 1945.  Now before we jump into the real war of the Pacific, General Douglas MacArthur vs Admiral Ernest King, I first want to jump over the good old CBI theater. Interesting to mention I recently did a livestream, gaming with a friend of mine, answering some audience questions from you dear old audience members and others from my Youtube channel and Fall and Rise of China Podcast. One guy asked me “how important was the CBI theater?” and it really got me thinking on the spot. Honestly when Americans talk about the Pacific War, two things immediately come to mind, naval battles and island warfare. China gets overshadowed despite literally being the lionshare of fighting against the Japanese, I mean hell they kept like 30+ divisions in China out of 50 or so. But even more than that you hardly hear about Burma or India, they are always the quote en quote benchwarmers compared to lets say your Guadalcanal's or Iwo Jima's. As I said to the audience member on the livestream, its hard to quantify something, but honestly tossing %'s around you could argue the CBI was a hard 50-60% of the war effort, because it did the most important thing necessary to win a way, it drained Japan of men/resources. So lets jump into it a bit shall we? So the last time we were talking about the disastrous First Arakan Campaign. The British launched their offensive and saw heavy resistance at Rathedaung and Donbaik. General Irwin continuously made blunders. When Wavell made an inspection of the battlefields later on he commented how Irwin's forces had “fought in penny packets”. Basically what he was getting out with this little jab, was unlike conventional battles, take for example the famous battle of Alamein. Instead this offensive consisted of hundreds of chance encounters, dozens of disparate set piece clashes, hand-to-hand conflicts, frontal attacks, ambushes, desperate defenses, bombing raids, all of which had been minutely chronicled, but the details of them were quite the mystery. General Slim when asked described it all ‘as an epic that ran across great stretches of wild country; one day its focal point was a hill named on no map; next a miserable unpronounceable village a hundred miles away. Columns, brigades, divisions, marched and counter-marched, met in bloody clashes and reeled apart, weaving a confused pattern hard to unreal”.  Now the beginning of the first arakan offensive seemed to go well. Despite the logistical nightmares, Lloyd enjoyed the advantages of both air superiority and numerical superiority. But the Japanese built their defenses knowing full well what was coming to hit them. The Japanese made no attempt to hold onto the lines between Maungdaw and Buthidaung, nor resist the British forces at Kyauktaw. Lloyd began sending optimistic reports, such as on Christmas Day when the enemy pulled out of Ratheduang. And so the British continued along the peninsula until they came a few miles north of a point of Donbaik, sitting on the coast of the Bay of Bengal. It was here, General Koga had dug in and waited for his enemy. It was to be here, after showcasing the Japanese superior jungle fighting tactics, their roadblocks and amphibious hooks, that they would unleash a new unsuspecting weapon, that of the bunker. General Slim described it as such “‘For the first time we had come up against the Japanese “bunkers” – from now on to be so familiar to us. This was a small strong-point made usually of heavy logs with four to five feet of earth, and so camouflaged in the jungle that it could not be picked out at even fifty yards without prolonged searching. These bunkers held garrisons varying from five to twenty men, plentifully supplied with medium and light machine guns.' The bunkers were impervious to field guns and medium bombs. They also had crossing fire lanes, thus for one force to attack a bunker they would be fired upon by 2 more. The redoubt at Donbaik was situated alongside a “chaung”, which was a natural anti-tank position, having steep sides up to 9 feet high up on the bunkers. On January 7th of 1943, the forces got their first taste of these defenses and were tossed back with heavy casualties. For days a pattern emerged of men throwing themselves at the bunkers, only to be butchered. It was so bad, both Wavell and Irwin were forced to come visit Llyod on the 10th, just to tell him “you must take Donbaik at all cost”. And so Llyod asked for tanks, and he was given them. But to Slims horror the man only asked for one troop of them, prompting Slim to object stating “the more you use the fewer you lose”. His argument was sound and simple, if you were going to utilize tanks, you tried to do so en masse to overwhelm, otherwise the resources would be vulnerable and most likely lost. His objections were tossed aside, and half a squadron of tanks, merely 8 hit the bunkers. The british attacks were beaten off all he same. Now Koga knew he had to fight off the enemy until at least the end of march to receive some decent reinforcements. Thus he determined to hold out; he needed to perform a counterattack. Meanwhile his counterpart Irwin was determined that overwhelming infantry numbers on narrow fronts could achieve victory. And as one contemporary analysis called it “an idea rich in casualties”. Koga brought up the bulk of his 55th division to Akyab and on March 7th the 213th regiment attacked the Kaladan Valley, driving away the V force. Then the 112th regiment attacked the 123rd and 55th Indian brigades north of Rathedaung who were forced to pull back to Zedidaung. This left the 47 indian brigade trapped at the Hwitze bridgehead and the Japanese carried out wide outflanking maneuvers and infiltration attacks against the British lines. In response Irwin tried to toss another assault against Donbaik, which had just been further reinforced by Koga. On March 18th, the 6th brigade of Brigadier Ronald Cavendish launched a front attack on a very narrow front, despite multiple advice given by other commanders stating he should try to outflank the Japanese along the mountain crest. His force made little progress and suffered heavy casualties for their efforts. Meanwhile the 213th regiment secured the eastern side of the Mayu river and the 112th regiment was preparing to cross it. In early March Irwin was doing something aside from tossing his men into a meatgrinder, he began covering his ass. Sensing defeat was staring him in the face, in his desperation he tried to coopt his hated rival, General Slim into sharing some of his blame to come. He sent Slim to Maungdaw to see Lloyd and report on the situation there. When Slim asked him if this meant he was now in operational control, Irwin said absolutely not, he just wanted Slim's assessment of the situation over there. Irwin did however add in, that Slim might gain operational control in the future, but only when Irwin said so and even in that case, Irwin would be retaining administrative control. Well Slim found the Lloyds men's morale was at an all time low. He advised Lloyd to abandon the idiotic frontal assaults and instead to try and flank the enemy through the jungles. Lloyd argued that was too unfeasible and because of Irwins ordered overruled Slim. Thus Slim returned to Irwin with a useless report. Up until this point Wavell pretty much had no idea what was going on. He continued to urge action from Irwin, so Irwin ordered action from Lloyd and the result was just more disaster. By March 20th Wavell, Irwin and Lloyd all accepted they would have to withdraw the forces to the Maundaw-Buthidaung line. Wavell was livid at his subordinates writing “It seemed to me to show a complete lack of imagination, and was neither one thing nor the other. An attack in real depth with determined soldiers like the 6th Brigade would, I am sure, have accomplished something, though it has cost us casualties. But to use one battalion at a time, and that usually only deploying one company, seems to me to be poor tactics. With the Japanese in a pocket like that, I cannot believe that a plan could not have been made to eat them up; it looked to me like practically ideal for covering machine gun and mortar fire from a flank.” On the night of the 24th, the 112th regiment crossed the Mayu river, marched along narrows paths and jungle to get to the crest of the supposedly impassable Mayu range. The following days say lines of communications to Kyaukpandu severed, the enemy captured the mountain crest near Atet Nanra on the 39th and in response to this Lloyd sent the 47th and 6th brigades to retreat west before they were encircled. This of course was in contradiction to direct ordered he had received to wait until the monsoon season had broke before pulling out. Thus Irwin was forced to countermand Lloyd's order. Wavell was livid over his insubordination blundering of things and sought to toss Lloyd under the bus. Thus Irwin was discreetly told to sack Lloyd, and before doing so he took direct command of the 14th indian division.  Lloyd was replaced by Major General C.E.N Lomax who was promptly ordered to carrying on doing the exact same things Lloyd had done. The 26th Indian division and Lomax were sent to bolster the peninsula, Lomax was going to assume command of all the Arakan forces when he got there, but until then Irwin had to run the show. Koga was not letting up of course and the 112th regiment managed to build a roadblock north of Indian village b April 3rd, successfully cutting the lines of communication of the 47th and 6th brigades. Simultaneously the 143rd regiment burst into the area advancing northwards up the Mayu River valley. The Japanese were soon infiltrating British positions at Indin village and overran the HQ of the 6th brigade capturing its commander, Cavendish in the process. However one of Cavendishes last orders before being grabbed was for the British artillery to open fire on Indian, which they did, taking the Japanese completely by surprise. It caused significant casualties on the Japanese, but also the British, killing Cavendish in the end. With the 47th brigade practically annihilated by Koga's forces, Irwin began to launch himself into a frenzy of blame-shifting. He argued the brigade, not his own tactical ideas, was alone to blame and yet again he tried to drag Slim into the mess. This time he told Slim to hold himself in readiness to take over operational control and to move his HQ to Chittagong. But again Irwin reminded him he would not have administrative control of operations nor operational direction until Irwin said so. Slim met with Irwin in Calcutta on April 5th, having been recalled from leave in the small hours, something Irwin did often to him. That evening he dined with Lloyd at the Bengal Club and heard his side of the story, which the man remarkably told without any bitterness of his shabby treatment. After this Slim had a meeting with Lomax at Chittagong. The 6th brigade narrowly escaped annihilation by retreating along a beach road and the 47th brigade avoided the same by destroying their own heavy equipment, broke out into small parties and ran for their lives cross-country to the beach, thus ceasing to be a fighting force.   Following that initial catastrophe, Lomax and Slim devised a stratagem for catching Koga's men in a box along the Mayu peninsula. The box would involve 6 battalion, 2 on the ridges of the Mayu hills, 2 along the mayu river and 2 on the hills due south of the Maungdaw-Buthidaung road. The idea was that the Japanese would be bound to utilize the tunnels on a disused railway track, dismantled for years. They would be led into a box on their way to the tunnels and then the lid of the box would be shut by a force of brigade strength. It was in many ways an attempt to replicate Hannibals famous victory at the battle of Cannae, every generals dream since ancient times. Lomax and Slim were going to used their tired and greatly demoralized men to carry out a scheme of geometrical perfection. But that is all for this week at the CBI theater.   Now as we all know, during the Pacific War General MacArthur and Admiral King both laid out their own plans for the drive towards Japan. This led to a compromise plan that held 3 phases: Phase 1 was to seize Guadalcanal; phase 2 was to drive up the central solomons and New Guinea; lastly phase 3 was to neutralize Rabaul. Now as much as MacArthur and King hated another, they both understood Rabaul was a crucial lynchpin for both their plans. Working together did not always go so well as you might imagine. Take for example Admiral Halsey who continuously found himself in the middle. At one point in early February  he was forced to go meet MacArthur to request reinforcements, because Operation KE made the allies think a major offensive was on its way. MacArthur argued that his heavy bombers were too few and that he could not promise much support as he believed an impending offensive was about to be launched in his own area. Now Halsey was one of the few men, a Navy man no less, that MacArthur did not hate, so if he was going to jerk him around, you can tell he was being difficult to work with. All of these difficulties emphasized the two services and two area commands needed to better coordinate. And thus a conference was called to hammer out the fine details of how they would all play nice together.   Now meeting all in person was not feasible so the commanders sent their representatives to Washington to present their plans. On March 12th, the Pacific Military conference was held with representatives from each Pacific area command: Lt-General George Kenney, Major General Richard Sutherland and Brigadier-General Stephen Chamberlin represented MacArthurs Southwest command; Lt-General Millard Harmon, Major-General Nathan Twining, Captain Miles Browning and Brigadier-Genreal De Witt Peck represented Halsey's south pacific command; Lt-General Delos Emmons, Rear-admiral Raymond Spruance, Brigader-General Leonard Boyd and Captain Forrest Sherman represented Nimitz Central Pacific command.   Now small side note here, since MacArthur could not make this conference I still wanted to toss my good old 2 cents at the man. While all of this was going on, Richard Sutherland had been sent on another mission to Washington by MacArthur. Richard sutherland was sent to meet Arthur Vandenburg, a senior Republican senator. They met informally at the home of Clare Booth Luce, a strongly anti-Roosevelt republican. She was also the wife of Henry Luce, the man in control of the Time-Life media conglomerate. The purpose of the meeting was to discern how much republican support MacArthur could expect if he ran for President in 1944. Vandenburg was onboard for it and a month later MacArthur would send another aid over bearing a note to the senator stating “I am most grateful to you for your complete attitude of friendship. I can only hope that I can someday reciprocate”.   Vandenburg and his allies  drafted MacArthur for the republican nomination as MacArthur met with his public relations staff, better called his court. One of his court members, Colonel Lloyd Lehrbas was disgusted by open discussions of MacArthur winning the presidency and running the war from washington. Lehrbas was a former newspaper editor who now reviewed press releases in MacArthur's name. MacArthur kept the man on his staff specifically because of his media connections. Vandenburg found strong support for MacArthur amongst the arch-conservatives. The republican party was going to nominate two candidates: Wendell Wilkie and Thomas Dewey, but Vandenburg was trying to sneak MacArthur in as a third. However there was a specific group of republicans who adamantly opposed MacArthur's nomination, veterans who had served under him during the Pacific War and before. Vandenburg tried to get a better picture by sending representatives to canvas the troops in the Pacific theater for their thoughts. The consistent response was overly negative about MacArthur.   In early 1944, a private conversation between MacArthur and Congressman Arthur Miller of Nebraska was leaked to the public. It revealed MacArthurs plot behind the scenes to run for presidency and this forced MacArthur to back pedal heavily. On April 30th of 1944 his staff released a statement from MacArthur stating  “I request that no action be taken that would link my name in any way with the nomination. I do not covet it nor would I accept it”. Yeah, MacArthur would try two more times to run. But anyways now that you know that little tid bit information on my favorite figure lets carry on.   The Pacific Military conference lasted until march 28th, conducted under the supervision of the joint staff planners, headed by Rear-Admiral Charles Cooke and Major-General Albert Wedemeyer. Now MacArthur's team came to the conference with a plan in hand, codenamed Elkon. Elkon was a town in Maryland, a famous destination for quick marriages, and the operation was to be a two-pronged offensive. It called for the seizure of the New Britain, New Ireland and New Guinea area which would be based on phase 2 and 3 of the July 2 directive. That being the two approaches heading for Rabaul: one proceeding along the northern coast of New Guinea and the other through the Solomons. This ambitious plan called for first seizing airfields on the Huon Peninsula and New Georgia, then air bases on New Britain and Bougainville, then the seizure of Kavieng and finally Rabaul would be isolated enough to be invaded.   The first week of the conference became a arm-wrestling match between Sutherland and the other join chiefs, especially General Marshall who squabled over the details of Elkton. Admiral King and the navy were quite hostile to the plan, but rather shocking to some, William Bull Halsey was a large supporter of MacArthurs plan. Halsey's team argued the plan did not overstretch their resources and in fact Halsey was finding working with MacArthur was enormously benefiting the Pacific War effort. Halsye and MacArthur were a lethal combo, but King was hard pressed because the truth was they simply did not have the necessary resources for MacArthur's plan. So as you can imagine compromises were made. Macarthurs initial calculations for the plan to work required 12 and ⅔ divisions and 30 air groups for the southwest pacific area, while 10 divisions and 15 air groups were needed in Hasleys south area.    The joint chiefs responded by asking what the pacific representatives thought they could accomplish in 1943 with the best reinforcements washington could deliver. Sutherland and Halsey's team agreed task two: taking northeastern New Guinea, Madang-Salamua-Huon gulf triangle, Bougainville, New Georgia, Cape Gloucester and New Britain could be taken, but they would probably run out of resources to take Rabaul. The joint chiefs said to forget about Rabaul for the time being and focus on taking the Bismarck Archipelago. MacArthur began writing from Brisbane he thought this idea to be a huge mistake “We are already committed to the campaign in New Guinea….If at the same time we enter upon a convergent attack on the New Georgia group, we have committed our entire strength without assurance of accomplishment of either objective.” This led Hasley to agree to wait for his attack on New Georgia until MacArthur had achieved his objectives of taking the islands of Kiriwina, Woodlark and the Trobriand islands. When proposed back to the joint chiefs, to everyone's amazement King accepted the revised Elkon plan with little compliant. The final directive went out on March 28th, officially canceling the 3 stage drive to rabaul. Instead the objectives for 1943 would be first Woodlark and Kiriwina, then the Madang-Salamaua-Finschhafen triangle and New Britain, and finally the Solomons + southern Bougainville. For the first time in the Pacific war, there was an agreed-to strategy for winning in the southwest pacific. In the mind of MacArthur, who you can imagine was only thinking about the Philippines, he had achieved his plan to direct the war where he wanted it and he had a surprising naval ally in Bull Halsey. The Elkon plan would eventually be called operation Cartwheel   I would like to take this time to remind you all that this podcast is only made possible through the efforts of Kings and Generals over at Youtube.

If you are still hungry after that, give my personal channel a look over at The Pacific War Channel at Youtube, it would mean a lot to me. Operation Cartwheel was greenlit and it showcased MacArthur could under extremely rare circumstances, make peace with his true enemy during the Pacific War, the United States Navy. Yes MacArthur would be able to direct the war, at least for a bit, to where he wanted it, the Philippines.

Det fanns bara plats för ett imperium runt Medelhavet. Efter att Karthago förlorat det första puniska kriget i kampen med Rom blev fredsfördraget mycket hårt för förloraren Karthago i form av högt krigsskadestånd och stora landavträdelser.Det andra puniska kriget var ett faktum när den karthagiske generalen Hannibal erövrat staden Saguntum i nuvarande Spanien som var lierad med Rom år 218 f kr. Redan som nioåring fick Hannibal Barkas inför sin far Hamilkar Barkas och gudarna lova att bli romarnas fiende. Hannibal Barkas räknas än idag som tidernas främsta härförare.I avsnitt 109 och 110 av podcasten Historia Nu samtalar programledare Urban Lindstedt med Karin Westin Tikkanen, språkvetare, författare och journalist som nästa år släpper en bok om den karthagiske generalen Hannibal.Efter erövringen av Saguntum följer världshistoriens mest beryktade fälttåg med elefanter över Alperna och omskakande nederlag för det växande imperiet Rom. Hannibal tog sina stridselefanter och trupper från Spanien, via Frankrike över Alperna för att tillfoga romarna deras största nederlag vid slaget vid Cannea. Men trots lysande segrar kunde inte Karthago besegra det resursstarka Rom i längden.När Hannibal blev överbefälhavare över Karthagos trupper år 221 fvt var han 26 år. Han hade redan som nioåring anslutit sig till sin far Hamilkar Barkas trupper i Spanien efter att han lovat att aldrig bli vän med romarna.Trots att Karthago gick till historien som de stora förlorarna i envigen med Rom har befälhavare som Napoleon, Marlborough och nutida befälhavare dragit lärdom av Hannibals ofta genialiska taktik. Hannibal var alltid noga förberedd och utnyttjade ett väl utbyggt underrättelseväsen. Han lyckades också samordna olika vapengrenar.Det första puniska kriget utkämpades mestadels till havs mellan 264 och 241 f.Kr. Då den romerska republiken erövrade Sicilien, Sardinien och Korsika av Karthago. Det andra puniska kriget var det mest kända genom Hannibals härtåg genom Spanien, Gallien och över Alperna. Kriget varade från 218 till 201 f.Kr. Det tredje puniska kriget, som utkämpades mellan 149 och 146 f.Kr, avslutades med förstörelsen av Kartago.Färgbild: Hannibal på elefant över Alperna av Jacopo Ripanda, målad 1510, Capitoline Museums, Rom, Wiki Media, Public domain.

Karthago var ett handelsimperium som sträckte sig över hela Medelhavet. De puniska krigen som utspelade sig från år 264 till år 146 före vår tidräkning var en kraftmätning mellan det rika Karthago och det gryende imperiet Rom som slutade med förstörandet av Karthago och utrotandet av den karthagiska kulturen. Den största anledningen att vi vet så mycket om det andra puniska kriget är kartagernas härförare Hannibal - som trots att Karthago gick till historien som den stora förloraren i envigen med Rom räknas som världshistoriens största befälhavare.I avsnitt 109 och 110 samtalar programledare Urban Lindstedt med Karin Westin Tikkanen, språkvetare, författare och journalist som nästa år släpper en bok om den karthagiske generalen Hannibal.Det kartagiska imperiet grundades av finicier från dagens Libanon på 800-talet före vår tidräkning. Det första puniska kriget utkämpades mestadels till havs mellan 264 och 241 f.Kr. Då den romerska republiken erövrade Sicilien, Sardinien och Korsika av Karthago. Det andra puniska kriget var det mest kända genom Hannibals härtåg genom Spanien, Gallien och över Alperna. Kriget varade från 218 till 201 f.Kr. Det tredje puniska kriget, som utkämpades mellan 149 och 146 f.Kr, avslutades med förstörelsen av Kartago.

Today we're discussing a pop culture icon, the one, the only...Hannibal Lecter. We take time for all of his incarnations, touching on the source material as well as the myriad of adaptations, and bring it all back to: why do we love Hannibal the Cannibal so dang much? Homework for the episode: Manhunter (1986, dir. Michael Mann), Silence of the Lambs (1991, dir. Jonathan Demme), Hannibal (2001, dir. Ridley Scott), Red Dragon (2002, dir. Brett Ratner), and Hannibal (2013-2015, pr. Bryan Fuller)

Veckans avsnitt spelades in tidigt dagen efter den tunga förlusten mot Liverpool på Anfield. Bland annat följde diskussioner om Hannibals inhopp, Ten Hags tacksamma (?!) uppgift och Maguires skeva verklighetsuppfattning – plus mycket mer. Trevlig lyssning! Kika gärna in våra sociala medier!

Inga matcher som spelats, men podden den sover inte. Mikael befinner sig någonstans mellan Malmö och Pajala(tror vi) och sitter fast med examensjobb. Emil har utlovat en vits, som inte går hem till hundra hos Rasmus och Niclas. Vi hugger tag i den märkligt skötta corona-situationen i Premier League. Hannibals fina insatser i ”arab cup”. Uniteds representanter till kommande afrikanska mästerskapet. Cavani gör så det pirrar, inte ska väl han lämna? Henderson och en eventuell ersättare. Martial och Lingard, vem bör lämna? Vi pratar om den knepiga tajmingen i McKenna out. Hur kommer elvan se ut framöver? Kommer vi få se ett mer sprudlande United? Dessutom avhandlar vi positiva och negativa överraskningar i truppen under hösten. Vi avslutar med en viss oro kring Bruno. Tack för ni lyssnar och ha en riktigt god jul!

Gaelen is back for Act 3 of the show she calls "Mindf@#$ing in Three Acts"-- it's most mindf@#$ery that ever was!!! The censors were totally not paying attention.

Folge 10 - Staffelfinale. Unnötig aufgebauscht und von der internationalen Presse hochgejazzt unterlaufen Dadaist Frank Tonmann und seine Vasallen konsequent sämtliche Erwartungen - wenn auch unabsichtlich. Dafür gibt es gleichzeitig den lustigsten und den traurigsten Höhepunkt in 10 Jahren “Eulen vor die Säue”, ein Intro, das Elton John gern geschrieben hätte und ein völlig neues Klangerlebnis. Wir sagen “cool”, ‘Die Neue Post’ schreibt “Kann man machen!”

Det fanns bara plats för ett imperium runt Medelhavet. Efter att Karthago förlorat det första puniska kriget i kampen med Rom blev fredsfördraget mycket hårt för förloraren Karthago i form av högt krigsskadestånd och stora landavträdelser. Det andra puniska kriget var ett faktum när den karthagiske generalen Hannibal erövrat staden Saguntum i nuvarande Spanien som var lierad med Rom år 218 f kr. Redan som nioåring fick Hannibal Barkas inför sin far Hamilkar Barkas och gudarna lova att bli romarnas fiende. Hannibal Barkas räknas än idag som tidernas främsta härförare. I avsnitt 109 och 110 av podcasten Historia Nu samtalar programledare Urban Lindstedt med Karin Westin Tikkanen, språkvetare, författare och journalist som nästa år släpper en bok om den karthagiske generalen Hannibal. Efter erövringen av Saguntum följer världshistoriens mest beryktade fälttåg med elefanter över Alperna och omskakande nederlag för det växande imperiet Rom. Hannibal tog sina stridselefanter och trupper från Spanien, via Frankrike över Alperna för att tillfoga romarna deras största nederlag vid slaget vid Cannea. Men trots lysande segrar kunde inte Karthago besegra det resursstarka Rom i längden.När Hannibal blev överbefälhavare över Karthagos trupper år 221 fvt var han 26 år. Han hade redan som nioåring anslutit sig till sin far Hamilkar Barkas trupper i Spanien efter att han lovat att aldrig bli vän med romarna.Trots att Karthago gick till historien som de stora förlorarna i envigen med Rom har befälhavare som Napoleon, Marlborough och nutida befälhavare dragit lärdom av Hannibals ofta genialiska taktik. Hannibal var alltid noga förberedd och utnyttjade ett väl utbyggt underrättelseväsen. Han lyckades också samordna olika vapengrenar.Det första puniska kriget utkämpades mestadels till havs mellan 264 och 241 f.Kr. Då den romerska republiken erövrade Sicilien, Sardinien och Korsika av Karthago. Det andra puniska kriget var det mest kända genom Hannibals härtåg genom Spanien, Gallien och över Alperna. Kriget varade från 218 till 201 f.Kr. Det tredje puniska kriget, som utkämpades mellan 149 och 146 f.Kr, avslutades med förstörelsen av Kartago.Färgbild: Hannibal på elefant över Alperna av Jacopo Ripanda, målad 1510, Capitoline Museums, Rom, Wiki Media, Public domain.

Fra Hadrians mur i England til Nilens utløp. Fra Afrikas Kartago til Donaus nordlige bredd. Romerriket var tusenårsriket som samlet hele den vestlige verden i en sivilisasjon – under en ledelse, en militærmakt og etter hvert også under en gud. Hør foredraget om Romerrikets vekst og fall av Jan Ove Ekeberg.Hvordan oppsto dette enorme riket, større og mektigere enn noen senere statsdannelse, og like interessant: hvilke krefter brakte det mektige imperiet i kne?Forfatter, den tidligere TV 2-programlederen, Jan Ove Ekeberg tar oss med tilbake i tid, til Roma og Istanbul.Vi skal høre om hvordan den lille bystaten på Tibers bredder med militær makt og diplomatisk kløkt ble sentrum i et verdensrike og om hvordan den demokratiske republikken, med sine store folketalere og demokratiske forbilder forvandles til et despotisk keiserdømme under Cæsar og stesønnen, Augustus. Om hvordan generalen Scipio beseirer Hannibals elefanter og om gladiatoren Spartacus, som mobiliserer de eiendomsløse og nesten feller imperiet innenfra.Historien om Romerrikets vekst og fall rommer hele verdenshistorien gjennom tusen år. Den nådeløse krigsmaskinen og den barbariske forfølgelsen av fiender av riket, men også hvordan romerne har formet vår måte å tenke på, innen juss, medisin, filosofi og ikke minst kulturen.Produsent: Litteraturhuset FredrikstadRedigering: Litteraturhuset FredrikstadJingle: Christoffer Schou See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

218 vor Christus zog der karthagische Feldherr über die Alpen. Dabei tausende Pferde, Maultiere und 37 Elefanten. Der Mikrobiologe Chris Allen von der Universität Belfast hat herausgefunden, welche Route der Heereszug genommen hat. Wie er die Lösung fand, ist eine unglaubliche Geschichte.

Året är 216 f.kr och Rom har samlat ihop en enorm armé på 86000 man, på slätterna vid Cannae möter de en varm dag i augusti Hannibals armé. Resultatet var förfärligt. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Tobias Svanelid undersöker Hannibals ikoniska elefantmarsch över Alperna med arkeologen som vill återskapa bedriften. Dessutom granskas bioaktuella Sameblod som skildrar rasbiologins Sverige. Den kartagiske härföraren Hannibals marsch över Alperna räknas som en av antikhistoriens största bedrifter, men nu vill arkeologen Richard Holmgren undersöka hur den egentligen gick till. Tobias Svanelid träffar honom hos elefanterna på Kolmårdens djurpark för att diskutera elefanters snövana, deras motståndskraft mot kyla och hur effektiva elefanterna egentligen var under de Puniska krigen. Man skulle idag kunna använda moderna arkeologiska metoder för att försöka belägga de antika historikernas berättelser om Hannibal, menar Richard Holmgren. Dessutom granskas bioaktuella Sameblod av historikern Maja Hagerman, som menar att filmen är ett första unikt försök att berätta rasbiologins historia ifrån de drabbades perspektiv. Och så svarar Dick Harrison på lyssnarfrågan om var de romerska kejsarna egentligen ligger begravda.

Denna vecka lyckas vi äntligen komma till skott med vårt mastodont-TV-serie-avsnitt, som vi pratat om, och ni förhoppningsvis längtat efter, sedan före sommaren! Panelen denna kväll består av Peter, Vanne,  Jonas, Niklas, Mats och Tove. Hela gänget alltså, för en gångs skull. Vi dyker direkt in i TV-träsket och granskar noggrannt nyheten att Corey Taylor (från bland annat Slipknot) ska vara med i Doctor Who säsong 9 som… ett skrik? Peter har scoopet, Tove och Mats reagerar. Därefter kastar vi oss in i en lång, vindlande diskussion om tredje säsongen av Orange is the New Black som alla givetvis har sett och älskar i olika grad. Vilken karaktär fick egentligen den bästa backstoryn i år? Jonas och Niklas går på djupet i True Detectives andra säsong – förvirringen är total bland fansen när serien byter skådisar, miljö och rent av koncept, men vår panel har järnkoll. Därefter en snabbtitt på varför det är så kul med knarkaffärer i Narcos, som Jonas har kollat närmare på. Orphan Black får en ingående beskrivning och högsta beröm från Tove, Mats och Vanne, medan Peter nattar baby och Jonas och Niklas försöker hänga med i svängarna så gott det går. Och givetvis älskar alla (utom Jonas) Downton Abbey och ser fram emot att se hur den sista säsongen kommer att avslutas. Sprängs godset av Per Ragnar eller säljs det till David Beckham? Slutligen kommer vi in på Hannibals tredje säsong. Den konstigaste, vackraste och bästa av dem alla, och både Mats och Tove är smått upprörda över att så få sett den att det med största sannoliket inte blir någon fjärde. Och Peter får äntligen diskutera sitt älskade Agents of SHIELD. Blev det verkligen så mycket bättre när Inhumans introducerades, och vad händer härnäst med våra kära agenter? Räkna med en och annan urspårning också, i detta matiga avsnitt! Puss Hej!

Har du nogensinde funderet over betydningen af de fem skilte der hænger på det træ som Clarice løber forbi i åbningssekvensen af Silence of the Lambs? Har du nogensinde gravet i den symbolske betydning af den "afskedsgave" Miggs har til Clarice efter hun forlader Hannibal første gang? Og har du lagt mærke til at der er en meget tydelig forbindelse mellem Hannibals en af Hannibals tegninger og den by Buffalo Bill bor i? Disse og mange, mange andre emner gnasker vi os igennem, i denne dejligt lange After Dark om Silence of the Lambs. På overfladen er det en ekstremt vellykket thriller, men vi prøver at grave lidt i den og ser hvad vi kan finde. Som altid banker vi et handlingsreferat på plads og gennemgår filmens primære karakterer. Herefter springer vi direkte ud i gennemgangen af de ti scener, som vi mener dækker over de aspekter af filmen, som vi gerne vil undersøge nærmere. Der er lidt Clarice der løber, lidt Bill der danser og rigtigt meget Hannibal der snakker. Efterfølgende forsøger vi at opsummere filmens temaer og Jesper får endelig chancen for at dykke ned i sit speciale fra universitetet, der blandt andet omhandler Silence of the Lambs. Vi har også fundet et par dansklærer-fortolkninger som vi tager temperaturen på og selvom Jesper ikke er meget for dem, så er det stadig sjovt at se hvad en kreativ fortolkning af en ellers uskyldigt udseende scene, kan føre til. Sidst men ikke mindst, sætter vi kort fokus på bloggen Cananalyze.blogspot.dk, for om vi så havde lavet en 90 timer lang podcast, ville vi kun nå Cananalyze til sokkeholderne i analysering og über-overfortolkning af Silence of the Lambs. Det er endnu engang vores udsøgte fornøjelse at tage dig med langt ind i en ellers velkendt film. Det er rodet, det er usammenhængende og det er langt fra så struktureret som det kunne have været, men det er ganske enkelt fordi vi som udgangspunkt ikke har fuldt overblik over hvad vi finder i filmen. Derfor er det sjovt at lave og derfor er det forhåbentlig også sjovt og lærerigt at lytte til. Vi glæader os allerede til næste gang. God fornøjelse! Med venlig hilsen, Casper & Jesper

Its a tough gig... to work for one of the most acclaimed publications of the century during the day time, work everyday independently towards writing a book in a half lotus position, research like hell so as to get all the facts and the perspectives right, update a book blog almost daily, then come home late at night to crash on the bed! Andreas Kluth, the humble tech correspondent from The Economist joins us to talk about Hannibal, the Carthaginian general from about 200 BC who marched with an army of elephants over the Alps, defeated the Romans over and over again, but his life ended with an anti-climax; he lost everything and committed suicide! In his book, Andreas intends to draw parallels between Hannibals life and that of our contemperories like Steve Jobs, Al Gore,and may be even Heath Ledger! No, you wont find it in the Self Help aisle of your book store. In this podcast Andreas shares all his views on this very eventful journey of writing his first book which is slate to come out sometime in 2009.
