Enlightenment publications on human anatomy changed the way artists understood their place in the world. Check out these examples of life-changing images brought to you by prints in books! In s2e31 of Platemark's History of Prints series, Tru and Ann continue their discussion of the Enlightenment. This time they look at several publications that put forward new discoveries about human anatomy: William Hunter's The Anatomy of the Human Gravid Uterus, Bernhard Siegfried Albinus' Tabulae sceleti et musculorum corporis humani, and Jacques Fabien Gautier d'Agoty's Myologie complette en couleur et grandeur naturelle. They conclude with Denis Diderot's Encyclopédie, ou dictionnaire raisonné des sciences, des arts et des métiers, a 17-volume tome that attempted to define and codify all of human knowledge. At the end of the episode, Ann and Tru wax philosophical about how incredible this blossoming of human knowledge is, and how talking about it makes each of them think about our place as humans on the planet. It gets a bit deep, but worthwhile. A. Hadamart. Exhibition of the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture in the Grande Galerie of the Louvre, 1699. Engraving.

In Platemark's History of Prints series, we are leaving the Baroque behind and are turning to the Enlightenment. The late seventeenth and eighteenth century is a fascinating time when social ideas focused on the value of knowledge in all sectors. Rationalism and empiricism led to the scientific revolution, the separation of church and state, literary salons, and for the purposes of this episode, art academies. The era saw the establishment of taxonomies, dictionaries, encyclopedias, and studies of foreign cultures. The results of all of these studies led to both good and bad, leading Tru and I to discuss alternate terms for the era beyond the Enlightenment: the Endarkenment and the Enwhitenment. Listen in as we parse out this fascinating moment in history. You can listen to Platemark or watch a video version. Links to all the possibilities are on the episode page at www.platemarkpodcast.com.

The duel between the Horatii brothers and the Curiatii brothers seemed to settle the Roman-Alban dispute and give Rome authority over Alba. But wily Mettius Fufetius has a trick or two up his sleeve. Meanwhile, the one surviving Horatius brother strikes down his sister in cold blood, an incident Jacques-Louis David drew but never ended up painting. The civilized three-on-three duel now threatens to give way to an all-out war of extermination between Rome and Alba. This is the sixth episode of "No Republic Was Ever Greater," a podcast series examining the rise of the Roman Empire through the work of Livy and Machiavelli.

After the long peace of Numa's reign, Rome gets a new king, even more ferocious than Romulus: Tullus Hostilius. As soon as he comes to power, he begins looking for a way to start a war (while keeping a good conscience about it).

A dispute between the young city of Rome and its neighbor, the ancient capital called Alba Longa, escalates into war. Rome's ambitious king, Tullus Hostilius, seeks a glorious victory in battle; a fateful duel to the death ensues, fought between the Horatii, a set of three brothers from Rome, and the Curiatii, three brothers from Alba. The freedom of Rome and Alba Longa hang on the outcome of the duel of champions. A story from Roman history (7th century BC), based on Livy's History of Rome (Book 1.22-25), featuring: Tullus Hostilius, the Horatii brothers (feat.

Paucis colloquiis iam habitis de Boethii opere de Philosophiae Consolatione, manifestum est (nobis saltem) rimandum esse quidnam sit consolatio. Multum Augustus consolationis dixit se invenisse in carmine Horatii ubi Faber autem nil huius generis vidit, cui aliud est consolari velle aliud alicunde sua sponte solacium accipere. Quid igitur sit haec res quam consolationem appellamus?
Philosophia Boethii docet nobis cavendum esse a Musis scaenicis quae nos aegros dulcibus alant venenis et morbo cuidam assuefaciant. Sunt autem poetae, ut Horatius, qui nos carminibus consolantur de vita humana. Ecquid nos homines naturā morti obnoxios consolari possit? quidsi mors ipsa consolatio ut Boethius in carmine primo docere videtur? Infra legi potest carmen Horatii de quo in hoc episidio colloquimur: 4.VII Diffugere nives, redeunt iam gramina campis arboribusque comae; mutat terra vices et decrescentia ripas flumina praetereunt; Gratia cum Nymphis geminisque sororibus audet 5 ducere nuda choros. Inmortalia ne speres, monet annus et almum quae rapit hora diem. Frigora mitescunt Zephyris, ver proterit aestas, interitura simul 10 pomifer autumnus fruges effuderit, et mox bruma recurrit iners. Damna tamen celeres reparant caelestia lunae: nos ubi decidimus quo pater Aeneas, quo dives Tullus et Ancus, 15 puluis et umbra sumus. Quis scit an adiciant hodiernae crastina summae tempora di superi? Cuncta manus avidas fugient heredis, amico quae dederis animo. 20 Cum semel occideris et de te splendida Minos fecerit arbitria, non, Torquate, genus, non te facundia, non te restituet pietas; infernis neque enim tenebris Diana pudicum 25 liberat Hippolytum, nec Lethaea valet Theseus abrumpere caro vincula Pirithoo.
Episode 5: Taken from the Headlines October 7, 2020 “Taken from the Headlines” considers European history painting, its roots and its legacies. What exactly are history paintings? And why are they significant in the canon of Western art? In this episode of “Unboxing the Canon” Dr. Steer examines these questions along with some historical examples before turning to the present moment to consider how artists use this genre today and reflect on some of its limitations. This episode covers the concept of istoria and Renaissance narrative paintings, dramatic 19th century history paintings in France and their relationship to politics, and contemporary Indigenous work dealing with the trauma of the residential school system in Canada.

It's time for some death metal. Nothing but death metal. Ripping death metal. Crushing death metal. Brutal, technical, gut-busting death metal. And of course, the monstrously inbred, three-headed stepchild... slam. The Black Metal Guy leads off with debut full-lengths from Draghkar and Sepulchral Curse, two strikingly original takes on oldschool sounds. For Draghkar, it's 80s proto-death filtered through epic speed metal. For Sepulchral Curse, it's Stockholm death metal filtered through a thoroughly Finnish sensibility. But will The Black Metal Guy's picks pass muster with the famously picky Death Metal Guy?? In the second half of the show, the Death Metal Guy brings us to the vanguard of weird brutality, with the new one from German masters Defeated Sanity, and the return of the Hellenic slamophiles, Embryectomy. DS's The Sanguinary Impetus is their most out-there yet, leaving both your hosts' jaws on the floor. Embryectomy work at the total opposite end of the spectrum, perpetrating an almost unthinkable atrocity -- a slam record without all those pesky trem riffs and blasts. And you know when the slams are hot and heavy, The Death Metal Guy can't control himself. So strap yourself in for the latest spasm of Autism Hour... the Grand Unified Theory of Slam. 00:00 - Introductory bullshitting / gore stories / rundown of bands and labels 12:11 - Draghkar - At The Crossroads of Infinity (Unspeakable Axe - imprint of Dark Descent) 52:56 - Sepulchral Curse - Only Ashes Remain (Transcending Obscurity Records) 01:27:30 - Defeated Sanity - The Sanguinary Impetus (Willowtip Records) 01:59:35 - Embryectomy - Flamethrower Ecdysis (Morbid Generation Records) 02:20:06 - Autism Hour - The Grand Unified Theory of Slam 02:44:37 - Outro - House Of Atreus - "Oath of the Horatii," fr. From the Madness of Ixion CORRECTION: Early on in the show, The Black Metal Guy accidentally combines Azath's Andrew Lee w/ his bandmate, Brandon Corsair, to make "Brandon Lee." That's Bruce Lee's son, who starred in - and made the ultimate sacrifice for - The Crow. CLARIFICATION: Sepulchral Curse only shares two members with Solothus - Kari Kankaanpää (vocals) and Aleksi Luukka (guitars). Both also play in Yawning Void (Finnblack death-doom) with Tommi Ilmanen (drums and vocals).

The reign of Tullus Hostilius, Rome's third king, was characterised by war, war, and war. The clue really was in the name 'Hostilius'! In this episode, we'll take a closer look at the campaigns of Tullus and some of the dilemmas he faced, including an heroic showdown between two sets of triplets and a not-so-heroic return for the victor.
In hoc acroamate, Horatii epodon II legimus, in quo vitam rusticam describitur et extollitur laudibus...sed quisnam laudem profert? Perlegendum est carmen!
Tullus Hostilius was de derde koning van Rome. Hij regeerde tussen 673 en 642 v. Chr. en zo vredig als zijn voorganger Numa Pompilius was, zo oorlogsgezind was Tullus Hostilius. De deuren van de tempel van Janus werden vrijwel direct geopend en in deze staat zullen ze blijven ze verkeren. De Romeinen komen in oorlog met Alba Longa, Fidenae én Veii en in een van deze oorlogen speelt een van de bekendste duels zich af, die tussen de Horatii en de Curiatii.
