En este episodio de Grandes Maricas de la Historia, nos adentramos en la fascinante y controvertida vida de Sextus Varius Avitus Basianus, más conocido como Heliogábalo, el joven emperador romano que desafió las normas de género, religión y poder en el siglo III d.C. Durante sus cuatro años de reinado, Heliogábalo rompió moldes y escandalizó a la élite romana con sus innovadoras reformas religiosas y su vida personal, que desafiaba abiertamente las convenciones de la época. Pero ¿cuánto de lo que sabemos de él es real, y cuánto es producto de la manipulación histórica? Exploramos cómo las fuentes antiguas, desde Cassius Dio hasta la infame Historia Augusta, distorsionaron su figura para convertirlo en un símbolo de decadencia y "depravación oriental". Analizamos cómo el cristianismo emergente se apropió de estas narrativas para demonizar al paganismo, reforzando prejuicios sobre género y sexualidad que han perdurado hasta nuestros días. En este recorrido, desmentimos los mitos más infames: desde las orgías y los estanques de vino hasta la supuesta prostitución del emperador en palacio. También reflexionamos sobre su identidad de género, su relación con Hierocles y su fascinante intento de integrar el culto a Elagabal en la religión romana. Este episodio no es solo una defensa del Heliogábalo histórico, sino también una crítica a la manera en que la homofobia y la moral cristiana han moldeado nuestra percepción del pasado. Porque, al final, Heliogábalo no fue el tirano decadente que nos han hecho creer, sino una figura revolucionaria que se atrevió a ser diferente en un mundo que no estaba listo para entenderle.

Episode Synopsis: In this episode of The Mummy Movie Podcast, we delve into the historical accuracy of the character Commodus, as portrayed by Joaquin Phoenix in the 2000 film Gladiator. We explore how closely the movie's depiction aligns with historical records and what creative liberties were taken in bringing this infamous Roman emperor to life on screen.Support the Show:Patreon: Support us on PatreonContact Us:Email: mummymoviepodcast@gmail.comEpisode References:Benfree.

Se cree que el mejor ejemplo del concepto de Platón del Rey Filósofo alguien que gobierna según preceptos filosóficos y verdades superiores es el del emperador romano Marco Aurelio, el último de los Cinco Buenos Emperadores de Roma. y un devoto estudiante del estoicismo, cuyos principios influyeron tanto en su vida como en su reinado. Esta es la forma más común de ver a Marco Aurelio, de quien su reinado se caracterizó por una devoción a su pueblo y una disciplina estoica expresada claramente en su obra Meditaciones, un diario privado que llevó y que, una vez publicado, se ha convertido en su mayor legado. Marco Aurelio fue muy respetado en vida y personas que existieron antes y después de el, personas como Dion Casio o Cassius Dio, y los autores de la Historia Augusta, una historia de los emperadores romanos, se refieren a él como “el filósofo”. De estas fuentes se entiende que conocían las Meditaciones de Marco Aurelio, pero los autores se centran no sólo en la obra escrita sino en cómo vivió su filosofía a lo largo de su reinado. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/vidaestoica/message

Here is my research on it... The Apocryphal New Testament Authorship https://www.academia.edu/s/cbbb322c87/the-apocryphal-new-testament-authorship Was Pliny The Younger, the Roman author and friend of Emperor Trajan, and who was famous for asking Trajan what to do about Christians, also writing as St. Ignatius? Is this more evidence of the Oligarchy (1%) existing even in ancient times? Pliny The Younger As Saint Ignatius http://www.academia.edu/s/99511f2e10/pliny-the-younger-as-saint-ignatiuspdf Some of the easiest evidence regarding the Roman creation of Christianity for those who are just beginning to study the way that we do in the New Classical Scholarship is in examining the works of Pliny The Younger. Emperor Trajan & Pliny The Younger: Mutual Ancestry http://www.academia.edu/s/f6541cd384/emperor-trajan-and-pliny-the-younger-mutual-ancestry Two of my forthcoming papers are very important as evidence of the Roman creation of Christianity. One of these papers is on the subject of the fabrication of Christian persecutions by Roman emperors. This can be shown by giving the descent of all Roman emperors from Antoninus Pius onward, from Arrius Piso (or his immediate family), the main creator of Christianity. And the other paper will show the direct descent of no less than 60 popes from Arrius Calpurnius Piso. At this time, I have already posted the information giving the direct descent of at least 35 popes from Arrius Piso.

I need to start off by saying thank you to my very cool brother in law, Peter for becoming a show patron. By being a patron he get’s exclusive access to what I’m working on in the background, research material and the like. And Peter’s dollar a month helps me pay the bills for the podcast as well as purchase more research material for me to consume, digest and turn into more episodes.So, Peter, thank you.I need to give another thank you to Ben at the Thugs and Miracles podcast, he gave me a most excellent and thoughtful shoutout in his last episode. As I was going through my rolodex of potential “Almost Episode” candidates, I was struggling to find something a little bit lighter that might bring a smile to all our faces. Judging by my line up, I seem to be naturally drawn to the macabre: slavery, genocide, rebellion, cannibalism are all reoccurring themes. But I found one that I think will work. It has a humorous element to it and since it’s about a Roman emperor, it pairs nicely with my biography on Arminius which was released earlier this month. In a way it also transitions into the subject of next month’s episode too, but stay tuned for more on that.So now, for the latest Almost Episode: The Emperor Plays Chicken.
Claudius II: This time it's hyped up! Find out wht the Historia Augusta claims that this man was the best emperor in the history of Rome bar Constantine himself. Find out how he fought barbarians and... other stuff. That he must have done. I mean, he is obviously great, the Historia Augusta told us so... so he must be. Yep.
The Historia Augusta is one of the few historical sources we have for learning about the later emperors of the Roman empire - it's just a shame it's so untrustworthy.
Chapter 10 – Part 3: “The Accuracy and Collection of the New Testament” Modern skeptics challenge that the New Testament is not an assembly of the true Scriptures, but reflect the spoils of victory for one group of beliefs that triumphed over others. The Nicene Creed, written during the First Council of Nicaea in 325 AD, expresses core orthodox beliefs that were based upon Old Testament writings. It is an affirmation of the teaching of the earliest doctrine in the Church. As the earliest church grew the apostles and the leaders recognized that the return of Jesus was not as imminent as they initially thought they started putting into writing their recollections and teachings. All of these writings became important as the church moved from the time of the apostles and faced heretical teachings. Key Words Orthodox, Nicaea, First Council of Nicaea, Trinity, “one-ness’ of God, singularity, Arius, “Lost Scriptures”, “victors’ views”, “in the form of God”, “emptied himself”, “apostolic church”, “first generation church”, Thessalonians, false prophets, “syncretism”, Ptolemy I, Serapis, Historia Augusta
David Rohrbacher (NCF) is a prominent scholar of late antique historiography. In this important article, he weighs in on the sources of the (in)famous Historia Augusta. If you like this article, I would try his excellent book, Historians of Late Antiquity. "Abstract: The first step toward unravelling the mysteries of the late Roman biographical collection called the Historia Augusta is to separate out the authentic historical material from the fictions which the author offers in abundance. This article presents a careful re- examination of the evidence for the sources of each section of the work, concluding that the author draws upon Enmann’s Kaisergeschichte and its progeny, Marius Maximus, Herodian, Dexippus, and, for the last Lives, a Greek source, perhaps Eunapius."Link to Histos Table of Contents.Link to the Article PDF.Link to the Podcast.
