The Gnostic Trilogy is the best-known and most important work by the ascetic philosopher and teacher Evagrius of Pontus. Among the writers of his age, Evagrius stands out for his short, perplexing, and absorbing aphorisms, which provide sharp insight into philosophy, Scripture, human nature, and the natural world. The first part of the trilogy, the Praktikos (The Practiced One), provides a diagnosis and treatment of the eight tempting thoughts. It was a foundational text for monastic asceticism and was the basis for the later Seven Deadly sins tradition. The second, Gnostikos (The Knower), explains how someone who has mastered the body and mental delusions should teach others. The third, longest, and most controversial, the Kephalaia gnostika (Gnostic Chapters), ranges broadly over the origin of the universe, the nature of rational beings, and the hidden symbols of Scripture. This part was responsible for Evagrius's condemnation as a heretic and, as a result, does not survive intact in the original Greek and must be restored from ancient translations. Evagrius of Pontus: The Gnostic Trilogy (Oxford UP, 2024) presents the Trilogy in its entirety for the first time since antiquity and provides a fresh, comprehensive English translation of all three works, in all their known ancient versions, both Greek and Syriac. Detailed explanatory notes, cross-references to Scripture, to ancient literature, and to Evagrius's other writings, as well as commentary on the translation techniques of the Syriac translators, provide the necessary resources for understanding this significant but puzzling text. New Books in Late Antiquity is presented by Ancient Jew Review. Robin Darling Young is Professor of Church History at the Catholic University of America. Joel Kalvesmaki is a digital humanist and the editor of University of California Press's book series Christianity and Late Antiquity. Find a link to his online Guide to Evagrius in the show notes.

Sokoto was the largest and longest lasting of West Africa's nineteenth-century Muslim empires. Its intellectual and political elite left behind a vast written record, including over 300 Arabic texts authored by the jihad's leaders: Usman dan Fodio, his brother Abdullahi and his son, Muhammad Bello (known collectively as the Fodiawa). Sokoto's early years are one of the most documented periods of pre-colonial African history, yet current narratives pay little attention to the formative role these texts played in the creation of Sokoto, and the complex scholarly world from which they originated.  Far from being unified around a single concept of Muslim statecraft, Paul Naylor's book From Rebels to Rulers: Writing Legitimacy in the Early Sokoto State (James Currey, 2021) demonstrates how divided the Fodiawa were about what Sokoto could and should be, and the various discursive strategies they used to enrol local societies into their vision. Based on a close analysis of the sources (some appearing in English translation for the first time) and an effort to date their intellectual production, the book restores agency to Sokoto's leaders as individuals with different goals, characters and methods. More generally, it shows how revolutionary religious movements gain legitimacy, and how the kind of legitimacy they claim changes as they move from rebels to rulers. Paul Naylor is a Cataloguer of West African Manuscripts at the Hill Museum and Manuscript Library, Minnesota. He has held teaching positions at Loyola University Chicago and Tulane University's Africana Studies Program. Sara Katz is a Postdoctoral Associate in the History Department at Duke University.

If you were to contribute a ‘drop in the bucket' to address political, religious, or humanitarian challenges, how would you do it? It's a hard challenge to address, no doubt. While many of us listening to this podcast are still formulating ways that we can use our time, talent, and treasure to address societal challenges that are dear to us, today's guest has found a profound avenue of work that piques both a sense of adventure and impact. Fr. Columba Stewart, today's guest on the podcast, has traveled to the far reaches of the earth on literary rescue missions to save and preserve ancient manuscripts of the Christian and Islamic religions. When he isn't conserving these ancient texts across the world's farthest reaches, or meeting Pope Francis in Rome as he most recently did last month, he can be found in the Hill Museum and Manuscript Library, or across the St. John's campus in Collegeville, where he serves as the Executive Director of HMML and a professor of Theology. To give you a better sense of his adventures and work, here is a quote from a recent article on Fr. Columba in the Smithsonian Magazine “Sometimes I feel like a war correspondent. Other times I'm cast in a religious role. In northern Iraq, I'll be in my habit at Mass with 1,500 worshipers chanting in Aramaic. Then I'll be going around in a tank.” - it seems like quite the juxtaposition from a quiet, prayer-filled monastic life in Collegeville, Minnesota. And, if you haven't seen it yet, I recommend watching the 60 minutes episode with Columba to get a more profound idea. A common thread through all of this is a connection to the understanding and preservation of history, and a sense of taking part in something bigger than yourself - both in the sense of continuing ancient traditions through preservation and participating in a community like St. John's.

Alon is an exceptional person and someone who could feel like life is playing with him. A man whose life changed forever in the 1967 Six-Day War between Israel and allied Arab Nations. The war has been studied ad nauseam by historians and how the effective reserve units of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) had so much success against Arab Ary regulars. However, this story is different and personal, taking place at Ammunition Hill, a remote outpost in the northwest portion of Jerusalem with a labyrinth of trenches designed to protect British ammo supplies during the British Mandate of Palestine. The site itself is a museum at this point, but the story of the men who fought there changed the trajectory of the war to give the IDF confidence enough to retake the Old City, however at a heavy price. Alon tells the story as a Director and from a personal perspective because this was his own unit that took the hill, and his father was a part of the unit. A family legacy of being generational paratroopers is actually common in Israel; the honor and pride of the unit have stood the test of time as it has been the part of every conflict Israel has been a part of. The world is simply a better place with people like Alon representing his people and his country. Enjoy this incredible story!

 The exciting and unique story of early Dodge City is told daily along Front Street at Boot Hill Museum. The area's rich history dates back to the Native Americans who thrived off the land and the buffalo.

Our Strolling Strasburg episode this month took us on a tour of Strasburg's Visitor's Center with Olivia Hilton: Interim (soon to be permanent I hope!) Director of Community Development for the Town of Strasburg and Linda Wooten: Tourism Specialist and Manager of the Visitor's Center. Olivia explained why she chose this location for our visit this month and Linda gave us some background on the types of people she sees in the center and the kinds of information they're looking for. We talked about the different items you can find in the gift shop and where (locally) most are made. Linda gave us a quick history lesson about the trails that surround the property and told us about the caverns. We wrapped up our visit with a walk through Hupp's Hill Museum - a partnership with Shenandoah Valley Battlefield Foundation - which is quite impressive. For more information about the Strasburg Visitor's Center, click here to visit their website or just stop by: 33229 Old Valley Pike (across from City National Bank) in Strasburg. They are open seven (7) days a week from 9am - 5pm.

The grants provide up to $10 million per company with a limit of $5 million per physical location. The grants can be used to cover payroll, rent, utilities and other operational expenses. Under the proposal, bars, restaurants and caterers showing significant financial losses due to the pandemic could apply for grants to cover eligible expenses, such as payroll support, benefits, rent, utilities, building maintenance and construction of outdoor facilities. Reed said: “Restaurants add so much to our communities and culture. They are economic force multipliers, bringing people, jobs, and opportunities to the places they serve,” “They are worth fighting for.” If you or a business you know wants to apply for these grants, you can visit Reed's senate website at reed.senate.gov/contact for more information.
