Hilary Tiscione"Setole"Polidoro Editorewww.alessandropolidoroeditore.itDopo il successo di Liquefatto, Hilary Tiscione torna in libreria il 12 aprile nella collana Interzona con Setole, un romanzo dalla lingua fenomenica e vorticosa.Dentro una dimenticata villa con piscina, in un tempo e luogo sospesi come in un quadro di David Hockney, si muovono vite disastrose e illuminanti, quelle di Mira, Lena, Rocco e Cino. Nel cuore tormentoso della grande casa, la quale pulsa di disastri e incontri, gli abitanti sembrano non appartenere a se stessi e al mondo fuori, appartengono solo alle loro stanze, ai tetti e al giardino, che a dispetto della loro immobilità, pullula di vita. In questo spazio mosse dall'aria e dal fato, galleggiano le esistenze di una ragazzina lolitiana mai stufa di vivere, una donna oppressa dalle pillole e dal peso delle indecisioni e di altri personaggi che gravitano intorno alla lussuosa villa. Poi, c'è un uomo lontano, eppure incastonato, come un emblema che si accartoccia su sé stesso mai perdendo la forza simbolica, nelle esistenze di tutti loro. Il suo nome è Al.Un romanzo che sembra richiamare il ritmo masticato, filosofico e acidamente lirico di Nabokov, di Ellis e di Manganelli. Setole vuole rinnovare la poetica cinematografica delle solitudini avanzata da un film cult come Il giardino delle vergini suicide di Sofia Coppola."Setole" proposto da Filippo Bologna al Premio Strega 2025 con la seguente motivazione:«Come nelle celebri tele di David Hockney o nell'indimenticabile film di Jacques Deray con Alain Delon, anche in questa storia c'è una piscina. Con l'acqua a volte limpida, a volte torbida, increspata di piccole onde. Proprio come i sentimenti di Lena, adolescente inquieta confinata in una villa su un'isola delle Hawaii, sospesa nel tempo immobile di un'estate senza fine. E attorno a questa piscina, sotto un sole stordente che si abbatte sul polveroso cantiere della dépendance e sul lussureggiante giardino, si muovono presenze sfuggenti, ombre riflesse sul fondale, indecise se tuffarsi o meno nella vasca senza fondo delle loro vite. Sono Lena, prigioniera dei turbamenti ormonali e del febbricitante languore estivo; Mira, madre depressa e femme fatale sfiorita che annega il suo malessere tra sonniferi e alcol; Cino, giardiniere tuttofare che regge sulle spalle l'eroismo silenzioso della sopportazione; e Rocco, giovane e atletico manovale che diventa il vertice di un conturbante triangolo del desiderio. Su questa Itaca dei Tropici aleggia l'assenza onnipresente di Al, musicista e compagno di Mira, padre di Lena, Ulisse smarrito, che ha dimenticato la rotta di casa e forse non farà mai ritorno alla sua reggia. Setole è un romanzo dall'atmosfera ipnotica, che avvolge da subito il lettore tra le sue spire narrative. Con una struttura compatta e incalzante, scandita in trentuno capitoli – tanti quanti i giorni di agosto – e una voce capace di captare ogni minima vibrazione dell'animo di un'adolescente, Hilary Tiscione dimostra una sensibilità di scrittura rara. Attraverso un uso del dialogo asciutto e percussivo, di chiara ispirazione cinematografica, e uno stile visivo e sensoriale, denso di immagini poetiche, l'autrice crea un efficacissimo montaggio, che alterna accelerazioni improvvise e dilatati ralenti. Tra campiture pittoriche fatte di esplosioni di luce e violenti tagli d'ombra, e una vibrante playlist che diventa colonna sonora dell'abbandono, della delusione e del tradimento, Setole si impone come un romanzo originalissimo e pop, capace di distinguersi per personalità e stile nel panorama della letteratura contemporanea.»Hilary Tiscione (1987) è nata a Genova e vive a Milano. Si è laureata in Lettere e Filosofia all'Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore. Ha scritto per il Magazine 8 e mezzo e per la rivista online LongTake. Scrive per La Ragione.

Hello my lovely archaeogastronomers!A new episode is out!"Aedepsus in Euboea, where the baths are, is a place by nature every way fitted for free and gentle pleasures, and withal so beautified with stately edifices and dining rooms, that one would take it for no other than the common place of repast for all Greece. Here, though the 'earth and air yield plenty of creatures for the service of men, the sea no less furnisheth the table with variety of dishes, nourishing a store of delicious fish in its deep and clear waters."So Plutarch tells us in his book, Moralia.How much fish did the ancient Greeks eat? Was it popular? Expensive? What are the surviving recipes?Let's explore on this episode the story of fish eating in the ancient Greek World!Music by Pavlos KapralosLove,Thom & The Delicious Legacy podcastSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-delicious-legacy.

And Alexander wept, seeing as he had no more worlds to conquer. That’s a quote from Hans Gruber in Die Hard, which is a very convoluted paraphrase from Plutarch’s essay collection Moralia. There’s plenty of truth in that unattributed quote from Mr. Gruber. Alexander the Great’s death at 323 BC in Babylon marked the end of the most consequential military campaign in antiquity. He left behind an empire that stretched from Greece to India, planted the seeds of the Silk Road, and made Greek an international language across Eurasia, all in 13 short years. He became and remained the biggest celebrity in the ancient world, probably only replaced by Jesus a few centuries into the Christian era. But what if he had not died as a young man? What if he had lived years or decades more? How much more influence could he have had? We have clues about Alexander’s plans for the future – and they come from Greek chroniclers Diodorus and Arrian, writing centuries after his death. They include conquering the Mediterranean coast all the way to the Pillars of Hercules (Rock of Gibraltar), building a tomb for his father Philp that would be as large as the Great Pyramid of Giza, and transplanting populations from Greece to Persia and vice versa to unite his domains through intermarriage.To explore this hypothetical scenario is Anthony Everitt, author of “Alexander the Great: His Life and Mysterious Death.” We look at the life of the most influential person in the ancient world, and explore the ramifications of his life having even more influence.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Why are you so obsessed with me!? In episode 111 of Overthink, Ellie and David untangle envy, jealousy, and admiration, in everything from Sigmund Freud to Regina George. They think through the role of envy in social media and status regulation alongside Sara Protasi's The Philosophy of Envy, and investigate the philosophical lineage of this maligned emotion. Does the barrage of others' achievements on social media lead to ill-will or competitive self-improvement? Why do we seek to deny our own envies? And how might Freud's questionable theory of 'penis envy' betray the politics of how we assign and deflect desire?Works DiscussedAristotle, RhetoricBasil of Caesarea, On EnvyChristine de Pizan, City of LadiesJustin D'arms, Envy in the Philosophical TraditionSigmund Freud, Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality, “Analysis Terminable and Interminable”Luce Irigaray, This Sex Which is Not OnePlato, PhilebusPlutarch, Moralia, “Of Envy and Hatred”Sara Protasi, The Philosophy of EnvyMax Scheler, RessentimentGenesis 4, Exodus 20Snow White (1937)Mean Girls (2004)Overthink epiosdes60.

The Cross That Carries You. Today, Michael is talking of denial and carrying your cross. Simon's (not Simon Peter) story is fascinating. At this point in the story, Jesus has been arrested, had a false trial, beaten until his back was shredded, and after all of this, they (the Romans) make Him carry the cross to the hill, Golgotha, the place of skulls. Jesus, though God, took on the fullness of humanity so that He could feel things like pain and exhaustion. At some point, He stumbles; the Roman soldiers pull a man out of the crowd, and his name is Simon. Simon was in Jerusalem at the time of the feast of Passover. Simon is the father of Alexander and Rufus, who were known to Mark's Roman audience. Simon's family was impacted by this for generations, by his carrying Jesus' cross to the hill of execution. Simon was the first to take up the cross. For him it was literal, but it became spiritual. Some believe that Simon became a Christian through this, but certainly his sons did. “When you carry the cross, the cross carries you,” is our core message today. (CSB Bible Notes) Condemned prisoners customarily carried the crossbeam, or patibulum, to the site of their execution, where it was attached to the vertical beam. The Greek biographer Plutarch wrote: “Every criminal condemned to death bears his cross on his back” (Moralia, 554 A/B). Apparently Jesus was too weak from being flogged and beaten to carry it all the way. Roman soldiers had the right to press citizens of subject nations into compulsory service (Mt 5:41), so they forced Simon to carry Jesus's cross. Simon was a Jewish Cyrenian from the north coast of Africa. He was the father of Alexander and Rufus, indicating that readers in Rome probably knew these men (Rm 16:13). Today's verses can be found in Matthew 16: 24, Mark 15: 21, and Romans 16:13.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/it/articoli.php?id=7735LA COMPUNZIONE, IL DOLORE CHE AVVICINA A DIO«Come c'è un cattivo zelo, pieno di amarezza, che separa da Dio e porta all'inferno, così ce n'è uno buono, che allontana dal peccato e conduce a Dio e alla vita eterna» (Regola di San Benedetto, 72). Con queste parole San Benedetto introduce il penultimo capitolo della Regola (RB). Nel nostro sforzo di comprendere cosa sia la compunzione, potremmo semplicemente sostituire la parola "zelo" con "tristezza": proprio come c'è una cattiva tristezza, piena d'amarezza, che separa da Dio e conduce all'inferno - e la chiamiamo malinconia -, così c'è una buona tristezza che separa dai vizi e conduce a Dio e alla vita eterna: la compunzione. Parlando di questi due tipi di tristezza, San Paolo dice che «la tristezza secondo Dio produce un ravvedimento che porta alla salvezza, del quale non c'è mai da pentirsi; ma la tristezza del mondo produce la morte» (2 Cor 7,10).Come si fa a capire la differenza tra le due? Per cominciare, dovremmo riconoscere che tutta la tristezza deriva da una perdita, reale o percepita: di qualche oggetto importante, di un lavoro, di una casa o di un'auto, di un animale domestico, dell'affetto e del rispetto degli altri, di una relazione importante, dell'amore, di una persona cara. Nelle sue fasi iniziali, tutta la tristezza è moralmente neutra, ma siamo noi a guidarla verso la compunzione o la malinconia.Ora, se la nostra disposizione fondamentale è quella della fede in Gesù Cristo, allora saremo in grado di considerare ragionevolmente se possiamo fare qualcosa per riguadagnare ciò che abbiamo perso e, in tal caso, pregheremo per avere la saggezza e la fortezza per farlo. Se, tuttavia, l'oggetto perduto non è recuperabile, vedremo che ciò che è stato perso non era così importante, come inizialmente pensavamo; oppure saremo in grado di accettare la nuova realtà con fede nell'amore provvidenziale di Dio e nella sottomissione alla sua santa volontà. Inoltre, lasceremo che Dio stesso si sostituisca a ciò che era perduto, così che si realizzino in noi le parole della Madonna: «ha ricolmato di beni gli affamati» (Lc 1,53).LE LACRIME BUONE E QUELLE CATTIVE«Vanno bene le lacrime, dice Sant'Ambrogio, se tu riconosci Cristo» (Esposizione del Vangelo secondo Luca, X, 161), cioè se ti addolori nella verità e nell'amore di Dio. Tale dolore si trasforma felicemente in una santa compunzione. Se, invece, non si piange nella fede, ma si cerca di fare da soli, senza Dio, ne deriva la confusione mentale e si è incapaci di trovare il sentiero che conduce fuori dalla selva oscura. Al posto della rassegnazione alla volontà di Dio che dona pace, c'è una rabbia costante che rifiuta di accettare qualsiasi perdita, un'amarezza che tratta tutti come fossero una qualche sorta di nemico. Tale dolore è purtroppo diventato malinconia. La malinconia di questo tipo rifiuta di accettare la realtà e quindi non ha fine; nasce dall'orgoglio e spesso porta a un'autocommiserazione paralizzante che incolpa gli altri per le perdite subite.La malinconia può derivare dall'orgoglio anche sotto forma di odio verso se stessi. In questo stato vediamo noi stessi come un fallimento secondo gli standard del mondo (non di Dio) e di conseguenza ci disprezziamo. Questa malinconia frutto dell'odio di sé può apparire una forma di umiltà, un santo disprezzo di sé; ma quanto sia lontano dall'umiltà è dimostrato dalla freddezza, anzi, dal disprezzo, che questa persona prova per Dio. La genuina umiltà, al contrario, è sempre legata a un profondo amore per Dio e alla sottomissione alla sua volontà: «Ci sono alcuni che piangono, ma non sono umili; piangono perché sono afflitti, tuttavia pur fra le lacrime si levano contro il prossimo e contestano le disposizioni del Creatore» (Gregorio Magno, Moralia, IX, 56).C'è un altro tipo di malinconia, quella che desidera i beni terreni, ed è rattristata dalla loro assenza o perdita. Le persone afflitte da questa malinconia si sottomettono devotamente ai gioghi più duri della schiavitù per ottenere queste cose e, quando riescono nel loro scopo, sono ancora più infelici, poiché ogni bene mondano deve essere affannosamente protetto dalla perdita e vi si deve infine comunque rinunciare quando si muore.COMPUNZIONE VS MALINCONIAIl dolore della compunzione, tuttavia, è lontano dalla malinconia come l'Oriente lo è dall'Occidente. Chi è pervaso da compunzione non è rattristato dalla perdita delle cose temporali, ma dalla perdita di Dio. Come il Salmista, questa persona trova consolazione in Dio solo e merita la beatitudine da Lui pronunciata: «Beati coloro che piangono, perché saranno consolati» (Mt 5,5). Tali anime si considerano semplici viandanti e vedono questa vita per quello che è: un luogo di pellegrinaggio e una valle di lacrime, e sono quindi piene di quel dolore che, secondo San Gregorio Magno, è l'amarezza dei saggi (amaritudo sapientium) e il dolore del cuore degli eletti (luctus cordis electorum) (cfr. Moralia, XVIII, 66; XV, 68).San Gregorio distingue due tipi fondamentali di compunzione: una di paura e una di amore. La prima è una purificazione dal peccato e una protezione contro di esso; l'altra è una forza del desiderio spirituale che ci trascina verso il Cielo. Due tipi e quattro motivi: «Quando ricorda le proprie colpe, considerando dov'era (ubi fuit); quando teme la sentenza del giudizio di Dio e interrogandosi pensa dove sarà (ubi erit); quando esamina seriamente i mali della vita presente, con tristezza considera dov'è (ubi est); quando contempla i beni della patria eterna che ancora non ha raggiunto, piangendo si rende conto dove non è (ubi non est)» (Moralia, XXIII, 41).I primi due nascono dal timore di Dio, che è il primo e fondamentale dono dello Spirito Santo. Ma è soprattutto attraverso il dono della scienza che la compunzione della paura matura e cresce in noi, perché ci permette di vedere noi stessi come siamo, con i peccati che ci allontanano da Dio, ma anche creati a sua immagine e somiglianza, redenti dal sangue di suo Figlio e chiamati nell'amore ad essere santi come Lui. Vedendo la nostra peccaminosità e ingratitudine verso Dio, siamo pieni di disgusto verso noi stessi e arriviamo a odiare i nostri peccati; ma vedendo il prezzo che il Figlio di Dio ha pagato per la nostra salvezza, ci viene data la speranza di cambiare le nostre vite e diventare santi come Lui è santo.IL TIMORE DEL SIGNORECosì il dono del timore del Signore ci ispira a «essere sempre consapevoli di tutto ciò che Dio ha comandato» e porta i nostri pensieri a «meditare costantemente sul fuoco dell'Inferno che brucerà per i loro peccati coloro che disprezzano Dio»; e così ci protegge ogni momento «dai peccati e dai vizi». Questa santa paura ci dà la certezza che «Dio ci guarda sempre dal cielo e che le nostre azioni sono ovunque visibili agli occhi divini e vengono costantemente segnalate a Dio dagli Angeli» ; ci fa sentire «in ogni momento la colpa dei nostri peccati in modo tale che ci consideriamo già difronte al tremendo Giudizio e diciamo costantemente nel nostro cuore ciò che il pubblicano del Vangelo ha detto con gli occhi fissi sulla terra: Signore, sono un peccatore e non sono degno di alzare gli occhi al cielo» (Regola di San Benedetto, 7)Le anime pervase da questa duplice compunzione di paura provano una profonda contrizione per i loro peccati e temono di finire con i dannati alla sinistra di Cristo. Fanno proprie le richieste del Miserere, insuperabile preghiera di pentimento e contrizione; e chiedono misericordia come se fossero già di fronte al Giudizio Universale, in sentimenti che sono perfettamente espressi nel Dies Irae, quel capolavoro poetico della Messa da Requiem. In queste preghiere, vediamo da un lato un timore servile che ha paura della punizione, dall'altro un timore filiale che rabbrividisce al pensiero di offendere Dio. Il primo diminuisce man mano che il secondo aumenta, poiché il timore filiale è espressione della carità, di «quell'amore perfetto di Dio che scaccia il timore servile» (RB 7; 1 Gv 4,18).Con la crescita del timore filiale, entriamo nella terza compunzione: il nostro amore per Dio e il nostro desiderio di essere con Lui danno origine a una disponibilità a soffrire in questa vita per meritare la beatitudine eterna nella prossima. Una grande fonte di consolazione per chi si trova in questo stato è la bella preghiera della Salve Regina, nella quale ci rivolgiamo alla Madonna perché ci consoli tra le inevitabili afflizioni di questa vita. I nostri occhi, dal suo volto materno, ritornano di nuovo su questo mondo. E lo vedono per quello che è: un luogo di esilio e tentazione, di fatica e sofferenza, giusta penitenza per il peccato originale e per i nostri molti peccati personali. Ma Dio nella sua misericordia ci permette di considerare queste sofferenze come benedette, perché con esse «condividiamo le sofferenze di Cristo e meritiamo di avere una parte anche nel suo regno» (RB, Prologo). E così si comprende la "legge" dei santi: «quanto più in questo mondo l'anima del giusto è afflitta dalle avversità, tanto più acuta diventa la sua sete di contemplare il volto del proprio Creatore» (Moralia, XVI, 32).Divenuti così cari a Dio per le fatiche, possiamo stabilirci nella quarta compunzione, in cui non c'è più dolore, ma solo gioia penetrante, perché sente Dio vicino e disponibile ogni volta che si prega. San Benedetto ci dice che questo può accadere anche a noi, perché «quando avrai fatto queste cose, gli occhi del n

Elena Panzera"I salmoni aspettano agosto"Giulio Perrone Editorewww.giulioperroneditore.comNon si è gemelli solo nel corpo. A volte lo si è anche nel modo in cui ci percepiscono gli altri. Può capitare, allora, che Michele e Francesca si scambino inavvertitamente un amore, o che un gesto dell'uno completi il pensiero dell'altra. In questa lettera lunga un'estate – quella che conduce entrambi al diploma di pianoforte e alla fine del conservatorio – notte dopo notte Michele, in morbosa attesa del rientro della sorella, risale la storia della sua famiglia con l'istinto e la fatica del salmone, in cerca del significato del suo nome. Lo fa con il linguaggio semplice e scarnificato di chi è venuto al mondo trecento secondi prima di piangere ed è rimasto in apnea tutta la vita, indietro, strano, chino sui tasti. Al posto delle rapide, incontra i segreti del padre, presenza luminosa ormai lontana, imprendibile. Al posto degli orsi, chiunque cerchi di strapparlo al suo viaggio per riportarlo al presente: un tenace insegnante di musica che non dà tregua al suo talento, distratto solo dall'incanto per sua moglie Hanna; due genitori impegnati a dissimulare non si sa quale anacronistica vergogna; le dolenti relazioni di Francesca mescolate alle sue, fuse fino a renderli un unico oggetto di desiderio. Sullo sfondo, una Viareggio che si apre sulla costa come un sorriso d'Alpi Apuane, tuttavia sfigurato dalla strage ferroviaria del 29 giugno 2009 che ha cancellato parte di una storica mappa di affetti per tutta la famiglia. I salmoni aspettano agosto è il racconto a ritroso che conduce a una decisione definitiva – “il momento di distacco dalla molteplicità dei possibili”, per dirla come Calvino –, la storia di un amore che continuamente si sdoppia sotto le mani di Michele, aggrappate per l'ultima volta a quelle di Francesca, per sempre a un pianoforte.Elena Panzera è nata nel 1991 a Viareggio. È laureata in Lettere e ha un master in Editoria e Comunicazione. Dopo aver lavorato per alcuni anni come copywriter, editor e traduttrice, attualmente lavora in una libreria indipendente. Scrive di letteratura, poesia e politica sul «Tascabile», «Altri Animali», «Interno Poesia», «Minima&Moralia» e altre riviste online. Nel 2022 è tra i fondatori di «Linoleum», progetto letterario dedicato alla narrativa breve.

Daniel writes, 'Plutarch mentions a letter to Alexander from Anaxarchus in his Moralia. It was stated that there were 'worlds innumerable' and that Alexander wept as he had not even conquered a single one. Firstly, could this be an early precursor to the 'multiverse' theory so popular in media at the moment? Secondly, would you be able to comment on the contrast between this statement and the usual notion that Alexander wept when 'there were NO more worlds left to conquer', as these both seem to contradict each other?' Thank you Daniel for sending that in. Join us on Patron patreon.com/ancientwarfarepodcast
Não faltam desafios ao pastor que quer seguir a Jesus, o Supremo Pastor. Mas o maior problema não é saúde mental, administração ética dos recursos, respeito a mulheres ou mesmo qualidade teológica da pregação. O maior desafio, e a raiz de todo pecado, sempre foi, é e será o orgulho. O convidado de hoje do podcast é um homem que já foi herdeiro, político e monge, mas abandonou tudo isso para ser pastor de Roma (ou papa, como ficou conhecido). E lá escreveu uma "regra" que se mostrou definidora para o que seria então entendido como cuidado de almas no ocidente — inclusive de almas orgulhosas de pastores.

I talk with The Minimalists' Joshua Fields Millburn about how to see the world through a sense meaning, not a desire for objects.

Alexander the Great's death at 323 BC in Babylon marked the end of the most consequential military campaign in antiquity.

Plutarch wants to emphasize this even from the beginning. His education in and prowess in wrestling impress Philip equally as much as his intelligence. Both become an asset to Philip and then Alexander. On top of that, he's able to defeat many of Alexander's most competent generals in battle and gain a reputation among the Macedonians as a bold leader.Justice (δικαιοσύνη) - Eumenes, of all the successors, seems most motivated to keep the dynastic succession in order and rule Alexander's new domains along the lines the Persian leaders had set up before. In other words, he considers it just to step into his role as satrap and leave it at that. As the other kings become greedier and more prideful, Eumenes serves the interests of the regent and, as he sees it, the rightful kings on the throne. He even tells Antigonus that he values his life less than the trust people have placed in him. He is just and willing to put his life on the line for it. How's that for skin in the game?Wisdom (σοφία) - As much wiliness in this life as wisdom, Eumenes has the ability to convince those hostile to him to listen, to ourmaneuver even talented generals, and to inspire confidence through competence. He's also smart enough to recognize all his enemies and finds ways to profit from his enemies: somethine Plutarch would be proud of, since he wrote a whole essay on the topic in the Moralia.Arrogance (ἀλαζονεία) - Categorized by Aristotle as the excess beyond honesty, this vice is rooted in a form or self-deception: seeing yourself as greater than you are. Other definitions include pretension and imposture. Plutarch points out the successors of Alexander suffer under this vice, unaware of their limitations and unwilling to accept that none of them measure up to Alexander.Support the show

In aflevering 5, de laatste aflevering van seizoen 3, praten Tess en Eva met Moralia over de FemDom- scene. Moralia is lang geleden de BDSM scene ingekomen als sub, maar is inmiddels al jarenlang een FemDom. Moralia bezocht veel FemDom-feestjes en vond het leuk om met ons over deze FemDom-scene te praten. Wat is er allemaal te beleven in de FemDom-scene? Wat voor mensen komen er op de feestjes en hoe gaat het er daar aan toe? Hoe is het als je voor het eerst de FemDom-scene binnenkomt? Ook praten we over onze ideeën en misschien wel vooroordelen over deze scene en natuurlijk horen we ook van Moralia wat ze het leukst en minst leuk aan deze FemDom-scene vindt. Wil je meelezen met deze aflevering? Dan kan dat hier bij de transcriptie van deze aflevering.
Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!Welcome back to another episode of our archaogastronomical adventures!I hope you're all well and healthy and had a lovely Easter.Today's episode is all about ancient vegetarianism. And the philosopher Pythagoras is the central figure on all these talk today.Pythagoras, the father of mathematics, was born and raised in Samos. around 580BCE. He is one of the most acclaimed pre-Socratic philosophers and the Pythagorean Theorem bears his name. Samos is a green island known for its mixed flora, full of mountains and plains. Olive groves are covering most of these plains, since the age of Pythagoras and even before, while the main varieties are the local Ntopia Elia, Koronéiki and Kalamòn. Even though Pythagoras spent more than forty years in his birthplace, he eventually decided to set sail for new seas; his thirst for knowledge led him to travel throughout most of the then known world, most notably Egypt and Babylon, centres of wisdom knowledge and secret mystical rites, before settling down to Croton, a town in Magna Graecia, modern Southern Italy. He may have found pupils to follow him, and welcoming ears to listen to his preaching....More on the audio if you press play!Notes for this episode:Theophrastus (c. 371–287 BCE) was a Peripatetic philosopher who was Aristotle's close colleague and successor at the Lyceum. He wrote many treatises in all areas of philosophy, in order to support, improve, expand, and develop the Aristotelian system. Of his few surviving works, the most important are Peri phytōn historia (“Inquiry into Plants”) and Peri phytōn aitiōn (“Growth of Plants”), comprising nine and six books, respectively.Aulus Gellius (c. 125 – after 180 AD) was a Roman author and grammarian, who was probably born and certainly brought up in Rome. He was educated in Athens, after which he returned to Rome.Diogenes Laërtius was a biographer of the Greek philosophers. Nothing is definitively known about his life, but his surviving Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers is a principal source for the history of ancient Greek philosophy Porphyry of Tyre (c. 234 – c. 305 AD) was a Phoenician Neoplatonic philosopher born in Tyre, Roman Syria during Roman rule. He edited and published The Enneads, the only collection of the work of Plotinus, his teacher. His commentary on Euclid's Elements was used as a source by Pappus of Alexandria.He wrote original works on a wide variety of topics, ranging from music to Homer to vegetarianism. His Isagoge, or Introduction, an introduction to logic and philosophy, was the standard textbook on logic throughout the Middle Ages in its Latin and Arabic translations. Through works such as Philosophy from Oracles and Against the Christians (which was banned by Constantine the Great), he was involved in a controversy with early Christians.His parents named him Malchus ("king" in the Semitic languages) but his teacher in Athens, Cassius Longinus, gave him the name Porphyrius ("clad in purple"), possibly a reference to his Phoenician heritage, or a punning allusion to his name and the color of royal robes. Under Longinus he studied grammar and rhetoric. Epicurus is one of the major philosophers in the Hellenistic period, the three centuries following the death of Alexander the Great in 323 B.C.E. (and of Aristotle in 322 B.C.E.). Epicurus developed an unsparingly materialistic metaphysics, empiricist epistemology, and hedonistic ethics.Plotinus (204/5 – 270 C.E.), is generally regarded as the founder of Neoplatonism. He is one of the most influential philosophers in antiquity after Plato and Aristotle.Plutarch (ca. 45–120 CE) was a Greek Middle Platonist philosopher, historian, biographer, essayist, and priest at the Temple of Apollo. He is known primarily for his Parallel Lives, a series of biographies of illustrious Greeks and Romans, and Moralia, a collection of essays and speeches.Croton was an ancient Greek colony in Magna Graecia (southern Italy) that was established circa 710 BC. In Greek society, Croton led in Olympic titles, physics, and sobriety, and Pythagoras founded his school in Croton in 530 BC. Crotone, Latin Croton, port town, Calabria regione, southern Italy. It lies along the Gulf of Taranto, northwest of the Cape of Colonne, and east-northeast of Catanzaro. It was known as Cotrone from the Middle Ages until the Italian form of its early name was restored in 1928. Cylon of Croton was a leading citizen of Croton, who led a revolt against the Pythagoreans, probably around 509 BC. ... After the success of the rebellion, all debts owed were eliminated and property was seized for redistribution; this arguably resulted in Pythagoras being expelled from Croton. Pedanius Dioscorides was a Greek physician, pharmacologist, botanist, and author of De materia medica —a 5-volume Greek encyclopedia about herbal medicine and related medicinal substances, that was widely read for more than 1,500 years. He was employed as a physician in the Roman army. Alexis, (born c. 375 bc, Thurii, Lucania [Italy]—died c. 275), one of the foremost writers of Middle and New Comedy at Athens, a low form of comedy that succeeded the Old Comedy of Aristophanes.Vetch: A member of the pea family, Fabaceae, which forms the third largest plant family in the world with over thirteen thousand species. Of these species, the bitter vetch, was one of the first domesticated crops grown by neolithic people. There are many different vetch species, the purple flowered varieties are all safe to eat.

The Moralia (Ancient Greek: Ἠθικά Ethika; loosely translated as "Morals" or "Matters relating to customs and mores") is a group of manuscripts dating from the 10th-13th centuries, traditionally ascribed to the 1st-century Greek scholar Plutarch of Chaeronea.[1] The eclectic collection contains 78 essays and transcribed speeches. They provide insights into Roman and Greek life, but often are also timeless observations in their own right. Many generations of Europeans have read or imitated them, including Michel de Montaigne and the Renaissance Humanists and Enlightenment philosophers.

Me casé con la persona equivocada ¿no tengo derecho a rehacer mi vida? ¿por qué se me obliga a vivir infeliz atado a este sufrimiento? El divorcio es una ofensa grave a la ley natural. Pretende romper el contrato, aceptado libremente por los esposos, de vivir juntos hasta la muerte. El divorcio atenta contra la Alianza de salvación de la cual el matrimonio sacramental es un signo. El hecho de contraer una nueva unión, aunque reconocida por la ley civil, aumenta la gravedad de la ruptura: el cónyuge casado de nuevo se halla entonces en situación de adulterio público y permanente: «No es lícito al varón, una vez separado de su esposa, tomar otra; ni a una mujer repudiada por su marido, ser tomada por otro como esposa» (San Basilio Magno, Moralia, regula 73). -CEC2384 Vivimos en un mundo donde el divorcio es el pan de cada día, parejas separándose y yéndose por una vía que aunque no lo parezca es la fácil. En México entre el 2010 y el 2017 el divorcio incrementó un 32% a comparación con la década de los 2000. Y en el mundo solo hay dos países que no permiten el divorcio, las Filipinas y el Vaticano. Te invitamos a que te quedes junto a nosotros en este tan interesante episodio...
This week we're celebrating badass women through history. With a series of sources written by men, because history. Sigh. Tom's giving us a whistlestop tour of The Moralia, Greek/Roman historian Plutarch's account of even older Greek and Roman women. Condescending and sexist? Yes. But there's still plenty of fierce women and rebels to enjoy. Next, Sam takes us to Mongolia for a look at Khutalun: 13th Century Mongol princess, champion wrestler, incredible archer and superb kidnapper... Who very nearly inherited the mongol empire whilst breaking the noses of every good looking bachelor in 1000 miles in her search for love. Subscribe and listen to us!

Magna Moralia (Ancient Greek: ΗΘΙΚΩΝ ΜΕΓΑΛΩΝ English: Great Ethics) discusses topics including friendship, virtue, happiness and God. It is disputed whether Aristotle wrote Magna Moralia. This author concludes that it is absurd to suggest that God contemplates only God but does not propose an alternative activity for God. Translated by St. George William Joseph Stock. Audiobook read in English by Geoffrey Edwards. Proof listened by Larry Wilson. Meta-Coordinated by Bart de Leeuw. Cover: The Wave by William-Adolphe Bouguereau 1896.
