As a result, Winfield quit his job and founded Creo Arts, a non-profit that exists to bring beauty, goodness, and truth to the world through the arts.Dr. Winfield Bevins is an internationally recognized author and artist.

Night trains are making a comeback, once again connecting Europe's cities with the promise of green, serene and iconic journeys. Just a decade ago, it appeared to be the end of the line for the continent's sleeper services. But revitalised routes, new operators and innovative cabin designs have sparked renewed excitement around overnight train travel. Yet even as demand from passengers continues to boom, an array of obstacles puts the revival at risk. A number of major new routes have already hit the buffers, and entrepreneurial sleeper train operators face a host of challenges. Is a European night train renaissance simply a nostalgic pipedream, or is it full steam ahead? Speaking to railway operators, innovators and industry insiders, Jack Butcher rides the rails to find out.
Alles zum aktuellen Sponsoring und den aktuellen Rabattcodes und Aktionen [findest du hier.](https://linktr.ee/feuerundbrot) Die Hexe ist zurück. Nicht allein als Märchenfigur, sondern auch als feministische Ikone, als Symbol für Widerstand und für etwas, das uns immer mehr abhandenkommt: Gemeinschaft, körperliche Selbstbestimmung und ein Wissen, das sich patriarchalen Regeln widersetzt und Denken jenseits des Rationalen entdecken möchte. Der Hexen-Trend äußert sich unter anderem durch eine Rückbesinnung auf Spiritualität und Naturheilkräften, Ritualen und Mystik. Doch die Hexen der Gegenwart müssen zwei Dinge navigieren, die es in der Frühmoderne noch nicht gab: Late-Stage-Capitalism und das Internet. Sie verkaufen Zauber auf Etsy, betreiben Online-Shops und zeigen ihre witchy Morgenroutinen auf Social Media. Die Hexen-Szene ist also auch voller Scammer und manche Ansätze enden doch wieder in Hetero- und Cisnormativität. Doch sie allein als Eso-Quatsch abzutun, wäre auch zu kurz gedacht. Das Hexen Revival ist auch eine Reaktion auf eine Zeit, in denen FLINTA wieder in die Unterwerfung geführt werden sollen, und das weibliche Ideal schön, zart und liebt ist. Doch ist es wirklich feministischer Widerstand, wenn man sich spirituelle und kulturelle Praktiken aneignet und zum Geschäftsmodell oder Lifestyle verkommen lässt? In dieser Folge sprechen wir über die „Witch Renaissance“ und ihre historischen Wurzeln, die Repräsentation in der Popkultur und die Frage, ob der Trend wirklich Empowerment bringt oder zu kurz greift.

In this episode of Tall Boy Radio, host Beans sits down with a true Renaissance man of the New York creative scene: Gabriel Rotello.From the grimy, loud-fast-rules energy of the 1970s underground to the high-stakes world of investigative journalism, Gabriel's career has been a masterclass in following one's curiosity—wherever it may lead.The CBGB Era: Gabriel takes us back to the summer of 1977. We discuss the sweaty, sticker-covered walls of the legendary Bowery club and what it was really like to be in the room while the foundations of punk and new wave were being laid.The Musical Journey: Before he was a chronicler of culture, he was a creator within it. Gabriel shares stories from his own musical career, the transition from the stage to the page, and how the "DIY" ethos of the punk scene influenced his later work.A Journalist's Legacy: As an influential journalist and the founding editor of OutWeek, Gabriel played a pivotal role in LGBTQ+ media. He and Beans discuss the art of the scoop, the responsibility of the press during times of crisis, and what it means to be a "truth-teller" in a changing media landscape."The CBGB conspiracy": The heart of the conversation centers on Gabriel's latest novel. Set against the backdrop of 1977 New York—a city on the brink of both a cultural explosion and financial collapse—the book serves as both a love letter and a gritty post-mortem of a specific moment in time.Whether you're a music history buff, an aspiring novelist, or someone who misses the "old New York," this conversation bridges the gap between lived experience and historical fiction. Gabriel offers a unique perspective on how we remember our past and why the stories we tell about it still matter today."You didn't go to CBGB to see a polished performance; you went to see someone figure out who they were in real-time. That's what I wanted to capture in the book." — Gabriel RotelloBuy The CBGB conspiracy hereThe CBGB Conspiracy eBook : Rotello, Gabriel: Amazon.co.uk: Kindle Storetallboyradio.com

Taj Simrit is a modern Renaissance man whose journey has been defined by seeking wisdom through experience and transforming hardship into humility. Guided by the belief that true healing begins within, his work reflects themes of self-discovery, peace, and forgiveness. His debut book, Behold My Soul, shares timeless lessons on healing and transformation that resonate across cultures and generations. Beyond the page, Taj is a globetrotter, a travel writer, a public speaker, a retreat facilitator, and a consultant, known for creating transformative experiences that encourage inner growth and meaningful human connection. In episode 651 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out how Taj's early life was purposeless and compassionless, whether his 8 years of traveling solo was running away, searching, or something else entirely, what was his "rock bottom" moment, what are some of the biggest ego traps young adults fall into, how students can they lead without being driven by ego, how college students can repair relationships, what happens psychologically and physically when someone carries resentment for years, how students can begin exploring spirituality without feeling like they have to abandon their existing beliefs, why so many men struggle to admit they're hurting, and what college students should do if they don't know their purpose. Enjoy!

In this episode - we channel the final challenge, production-assisted sabotages are lazy, Logan finds out about the sabotage he missed, there's an awful lot of filler, Hadewych shows off her geography skills, an old episode title returns, Michael puts a rule in place, the season comes full circle, we get in the ballpark of the next België location, Art tries not to get cancelled, there's a time limit on Traitors Canada, Liesbeth shuts Art down, Bindles wraps up the clues, the season ends in an appropriate way, Logan gets the faintest amount of praise, the Sneaky Tasmanian is revealed, we find the time for a quick game of Play Your Moles Right, the season and cast are all wrapped up and we reveal the additional perk of your ticket at the Iceland Phallological Museum.

Throughout the 16th century, one man stood between the Ottoman Empire and European domination, yet his name has been largely forgotten. Gabriele Tadino was an Italian military engineer whose genius transformed medieval warfare and saved Europe from one of history's greatest conquerors, Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent. In 1522, Tadino defied his Venetian masters by sneaking away in the night to defend Rhodes, where 700 Knights Hospitaller faced an impossible siege against 100,000 Ottoman troops. His revolutionary innovations—from acoustic devices using stretched skins and bells to detect enemy tunnels, to star-shaped fortifications that could withstand cannon fire—turned him into a legend among Renaissance military minds. Despite losing an eye in combat, Tadino continued directing the defense, holding off Suleiman for six months and forcing the Sultan to negotiate a peaceful surrender rather than achieve outright victory. Today’s guest is Edoardo Albert, author of “The Man Who Stopped the Sultan.” We see how Tadino's expertise came at a crucial moment when gunpowder was rendering centuries-old walls obsolete and Europe's power-hungry rulers—Henry VIII, Francis I, and Charles V—were too divided to mount a unified defense against Ottoman expansion. He pioneered counter-mining techniques like "camouflets," controlled explosions that buried enemy sappers alive, and ventilation shafts that redirected the force of gunpowder blasts away from fortress walls. His genius extended from Crete's massive Martinengo Bastion, which still stands today, to the walls of Vienna in 1529, where his underground warfare tactics stopped Suleiman's advance into Central.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today I chat with my second-cousin Megan who is a younger yet ever so wise Millennial toddler mom and Renaissance woman. Our moms are first cousins. Megan has worked as a doula and now runs a doula placement agency in Southern California. She's also a mom to a three-and-a-half-year-old daughter, an IBCLC, and a Nurse Practitioner. Have you heard of the company Carrot? Women who are not even adequately trained to be postpartum doulas are able to bypass the necessary time and in-person training it takes in order to become one in order to get their piece of the pie. Why is this problematic? When families hire a postpartum doula, the expectation is that the entire family unit will be cared for including the home. There is an expectation that breastfeeding support will be offered and that the postpartum doula is actually knowledgeable about breastfeeding. Instead, women are able to claim the title of postpartum doula while actually stepping into the misleading role of overnight nanny or newborn care specialist.During this episode, I also ask Megan for her nuanced opinions on bottle and pacifier usage (it's not so black-and-white!). We discuss what is really attributing to textbook low supply.We delve into a breastfeeding technique I had never heard of before called “reverse cycling” and why we think it's so seldom discussed. It's typically used as a strategy for moms who must return to work and don't want to affect their supply or offer formula, so they hold off on nursing all day and then nurse truly on-demand all throughout the night. It does require bedsharing in order to be successful.I ask her what is the worst breastfeeding advice she's ever heard as someone who is trained as an IBCLC, a Nurse Practitioner, a former doula and a toddler mom who is still nursing.Despite having to return to work outside the home (part-time for 12 hour shifts!), Megan is still successfully nursing her 3.5 year old.Connect/book a consult with Megan here.Grab your FREE guide:Questions To Ask A Prospective Birth Attendant or MidwifeSupport the showStay Connected With Me: Subscribe to Moms Off The Record on YouTube JOIN THE MOTR PRIVATE COMMUNITY here Book a potty training 1:1 consult with me here Discount codes & links to my favorite courses and products here Love Moms off the Record?

James Hankins is a Renaissance historian, longtime Harvard professor, and co-author of The Golden Thread: A History of the Western Tradition. In this conversation with Coleman Hughes, he explains why he recently left Harvard, after nearly four decades, and why he believes the study of Western civilization has quietly disappeared from American education. Hankins argues that if students want to understand ideas like free speech, equality, and the rule of law, they need to know the long history story behind them—from ancient Greece and Rome through Christianity and the Enlightenment to the modern world. Along the way, he reflects on the controversy surrounding the Western canon, the debate over “dead white men,” and the question of whether a shared civilizational story is still possible in a pluralistic society.

Have you ever looked at a piece of toast, a cloud or a nearby house and had the impression there's a face in it, looking right back at you? If you're like most people, it happens to you on a regular basis, and once you've seen the face, you just can't un-see it! It's down to a human tendency known as pareidolia. The psychological phenomenon comes from the Greek words para, meaning “beside” or “beyond” and “idolia”, meaning form or image. It's basically our brains playing tricks on us, but for a very good reason. And it's nothing new either; Renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci wrote about it in his notebooks. Pareidolia is an example of apophenia, which is the tendency to make sense of, or connect things that are actually unconnected. Our brains are always looking for patterns in information from the outside world, to use as a basis for the decisions we make. Do you have any examples? Why does the brain do that then? Are some people more affected than others? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions! To listen to the latest episodes, click here: What is bae-realing, the new dating trend?

Tech bros like to blabber about AI and the end of the world. But the more plausible catastrophe they'll unleash is severe inequality and economic distress. As anger and panic grows over the automation of labor, the technology industry is casting around for a new social license to operate. One vogueish idea is some form of Universal Basic Income, or UBI: a regular cash income paid to all, on an individual basis, without means test or work requirement. The most important experiment to date into how a basic income could work was funded by Sam Altman of OpenAI, the organization that developed ChatGPT. One thousand people in the US states of Illinois and Texas were given $1,000 a month obligation free between 2020 and 2023. But Altman's vision for how the new-look social assistance would work is deeply flawed. That's the verdict of Philippe Van Parijs, the celebrated philosopher and author of a landmark book on basic income (Harvard, 2017). Altman's recent proposals, where the public gets a share of a promised AI bonanza in exchange for innovation without limits, would fail to protect the public against the vicissitudes that a basic income is meant to address. In this live recording from the Flagey theater in Brussels, Philippe sets out the history and philosophy of an idea that has stirred thinkers and social-justice advocates for half a millennium, from 16th-century Flanders to 21st-century Silicon Valley. Among the figures featured in the show: Renaissance humanist Juan Luis Vives; Belgian social theorist Joseph Charlier; Louisiana Governor and US Senator Huey Long; bandleader Ina Ray Hutton; economist John Kenneth Galbraith; and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei.

Step into a world where knights, mottos, mythic beasts, and phoenixes rise again—and discover how Renaissance symbolism can illuminate your readings in entirely new ways with Tarot Emblemata: Decoding Magical Symbolism. On this episode of the Archetypal Tarot Podcast, Host Cyndera welcomes artist and deck creator Nitasia Roland for an enchanting conversation about (one of her) latest decks. Drawing from 16th-century French and Italian emblem books—particularly the 1551 collection curated by Claude Paradin—Rowland reimagines Renaissance “devices” (symbolic images paired with mottos) as a fully realized tarot system. These historic emblems, originally engraved by Bernard Salomon, explored themes of love, war, faith, philosophy, politics, and morality during the height of the Renaissance. Now, centuries later, they re-emerge as living archetypes. The conversation also explores the Renaissance world that birthed these emblems—a time of religious upheaval, artistic revolution, and humanist revival—and reflects on what this symbolic medicine offers us today. As Roland beautifully suggests, reviving these images is almost a calling: a way of bringing buried wisdom back into contemporary consciousness. In this episode, you'll discover: How a chance encounter with occult-flavored emblem art sparked the creation of the deck The fascinating structure of traditional emblems—pictura (image), inscriptio (motto), and subscriptio (commentary)—and how they translate seamlessly into tarot Why these 500-year-old images feel uncannily aligned with modern archetypes The alchemical and esoteric currents flowing beneath the artwork (such as the powerful phoenix symbolism of rebirth and transformation) The creative journey from black-and-gold indie edition to lush, colorized reimagining Roland shares her passion for pairing poetic language with evocative imagery, creating cards that speak directly to intuition—often without needing to consult the guidebook. The result is a deck that feels at once ancient and immediate, scholarly and mystical. Whether you're drawn to tarot as an intuitive art, a historical system, or a symbolic language of transformation, this episode offers rich insight into how past and present intertwine through archetype and image.

In this episode Natalie Grueninger interviews manuscript specialist Sienna Wells about illuminated medieval and Renaissance manuscripts. They discuss how manuscripts were made, who produced and owned them (including women), how the printing press changed book culture, and what physical traces of use reveal about past readers' lives and emotions. The conversation highlights personal stories like birthing girdles and the intimacy of Books of Hours, offering listeners insights into the human connections preserved in these remarkable objects.

In this episode of I Remember Liking That Movie, we head back to the Renaissance for a supposedly smarter, more grounded take on Cinderella with Ever After from 1998. Starring Drew Barrymore, Anjelica Huston, and Dougray Scott, the film ditches fairy godmothers and magic in favor of historical realism… and somehow still finds room for Leonardo da Vinci. One of us remembers this one as the “classy” Cinderella, the version with brains, attitude, and a heroine who can quote philosophy while throwing apples at royalty. One of us has never seen it. We'll let you guess who is who. So does this prestige fairy tale still charm, or does it feel more like a history lecture wrapped in corsets? Join us as we revisit mean stepmothers, awkward princes, suspiciously convenient Renaissance geniuses, and a fairy tale that may or may not be taking itself way too seriously. Does Ever After still hold up… or did one of us just remember liking it, and will the other even like it?

Why are the Swiss called the Swiss? After all, Schwyz in only of 26 cantons, and not one of the largest ones. How did the proud and prosperous citizens of Zurich or Berne, mighty city states in their own right, decide they wanted to be named after a mountainous region largely inhabited by peasants tending to their gorgeous brown cattle, the Braunvieh. They even called their national airline Swissair, until my former colleagues at McKinsey let the air out of that one.So, why Swiss? The answer goes back to today's topic, a war that the Swiss call the Schwabenkreig or Swabian War. This war played a massive role in Swiss historiography, and its main battles at the Caven and at Dornach was mentioned in the same breath as Morgarten and Sempach. It was seen as the moment when Switzerland de facto exited the Holy Roman Empire and began ploughing its own furrow in European history. Meanwhile in Germany, this war that we called the Schweizerkreig or Swiss War is largely forgotten amongst the hundreds of other military conflicts.It was also the first of many contests between the two formidable fighting forces of the Renaissance, the Swiss Reisläufer and the German Landsknechte. These soldiers of fortune have percolated the national consciousness on both sides, their fanciful dress depicted in art on both sides of the Rhine and still providing one of Rome's most instagrammable photo opportunities.That on top of the usual incompetence and skullduggery should be incentive enough to listen to this episode.The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comIf you wish to support the show go to: Support • History of the Germans PodcastFacebook: @HOTGPod Threads: @history_of_the_germans_podcastBluesky: @hotgpod.bsky.socialInstagram: history_of_the_germansTwitter: @germanshistoryTo make it easier for you to share the podcast, I have created separate playlists for some of the seasons that are set up as individual podcasts. they have the exact same episodes as in the History of the Germans, but they may be a helpful device for those who want to concentrate on only one season.

In this week's episode, we discuss Romantasy, the Franken-genre that has conquered the publishing world and defined the libidinal landscapes of a generation of women. We decode the genre's DNA from dimestore bodice-rippers to high fantasy epics, examine the sociological profile of its authors and audiences, and explore how it's mutated in the digital age via AI visualizers and high-budget audio erotica. We also talk about Renaissance faires, fujoshi discourse, the mirror image of male vs. female gooning in popular culture, Emerald Fennell's Wuthering Heights as the BookTok movie of the century, and more.

Anne Ghesquière reçoit Maud Ankaoua, romancière à succès, coach et conférencière. Comment avancer quand l'incertitude nous fige, comment accepter sans se résigner ? Que faire lorsque les réponses ne viennent pas et que l'espoir vacille ? À travers cette histoire bouleversante, Maud Ankaoua nous rappelle que même dans nos plus grandes blessures se cachent les graines de notre renaissance. Une leçon d'espoir et de sagesse. Un voyage initiatique au cœur des paysages africains, mais surtout un profond chemin intérieur, nourri de sagesse ancestrale, de rencontres décisives et d'enseignements clés sur l'attente, l'acceptation, nos choix, le deuil, la résilience et la joie retrouvée. Dans son nouveau roman Tu m'avais promis aux Éditions Eyrolles, Maud Ankaoua nous emmène au Kenya, aux côtés de Gabin et de sa fille Luce, partis sur les traces d'une promesse et d'une disparition restée sans réponse. Épisode #672Quelques citations du podcast avec Maud Ankaoua :"Le problème de l'espoir, c'est que lié à l'espoir, il y a l'attente.

An episode about Goths and Atlantis featuring the parapol goat Reid does not really need an introduction but you deserve one anyway. I will set the stage by talking about language magic and how it developed during the Renaissance after the kabbalists fled Spain.We will trace the origins of this Word and practice back through the eras of the neoplatonic logos doctrine. Reading early church fathers, apostles, desert dwelling mystics and my absolute favorite women among the Beguines and Beghards during the High Middle Ages.After this extended dreamy first act which might lull you to sleep in the best of ways, or have you thirsting for more in the night under this still quite full moon. Sebbe, Reid and I will tell you about the OG modern Atlantis researcher, Olaus Rudbeck (1630-1702).Together with this mad genius we will go through strange runic translations of old Greek myths, newly arrived Icelandic sagas, as spoils of war from the continental 30 year war fill up the shelf of the Collegium of Antiquites, with the most priced being the Gothic Silver Bible.

Located in the remains of the 16th-century Palazzo del Pilotta, once the royal residence of the Farnese dukes of Parma, the National Gallery houses one of Italy's premier collections of Renaissance paintings. It includes masterpieces by Fra Angelico, Correggio, Parmigianino, and Leonardo da Vinci.
Huzzah! Another week of petty crime chaos is upon us. In this episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, Amanda takes us back to the Renaissance — from medieval period problems to terrifying torture devices — while Trevin seeks advice for his lifelong nail-biting habit and delivers a strange-but-true Two Truths and a Lie about fingernails. Amanda's Two Truths and a Lie dives into infamous medieval torture devices before bringing us to the Colorado Renaissance Festival in Larkspur, Colorado, where 22-year-old Connor Ward allegedly crashed a live jousting performance and attempted to steal a knight's sword mid-tournament. Trevin's story heads to Kent County, Michigan, where 51-year-old Shannon Soltys was charged after allegedly forging attorney-client mail to smuggle narcotics into the Kent County Jail, leading to arrests on Trenton Avenue in Cedar Springs. From jousting theft to forged jail mail, this episode proves that crime can span centuries — but it's always petty.
The concept that originated from the Renaissance humanism, uomo universale describes the potential for individuals to excel in multiple fields of knowledge and skills, reflecting the belief in the importance of human capabilities and education. We spoke about this concept in era of "specialization" that we live in, how modern polymaths differ from figures like Da Vinci and Alberti and joy of achievement. Enjoy!

The period known as the Middle Ages was defined by more than knights and warfare. It began centuries before the First Crusade was called, in the confusion that followed the end of Roman rule in western Europe. And it persisted for a thousand years, until the Renaissance, the Protestant Reformation, and the discovery of the so-called New World ushered in the beginnings of modernity. But just how important was the fall of Rome for people across the continent? What political and religious institutions sprang up to fill the power vacuum left behind? And who were the leaders who strengthened Europe sufficiently to once again launch armed expeditions across the sea? This is a Short History Of The European Middle Ages, Part 1 of 2.

When our students face challenges in the classroom, some teachers double down on control and rigor: tighter rules, firmer consequences, higher demands. Others lean toward grace and flexibility: easing up, giving extensions, and softening expectations because they know our students are carrying a lot. But what if the answer isn't either/or? Warm Demander pedagogy is an approach that pairs genuine care and deep relationship-building with unwavering high expectations. It's the belief that students need to feel seen, respected, and valued — and that we honor them most by refusing to lower the bar. In today's episode, I'm joined by educators Marcee Harris and Dr. Wendy Amato. They explain what Warm Demander pedagogy looks like in action, how it supports student agency and productive struggle, and why it's especially relevant for teachers right now. ___________________________ Thanks to Renaissance and SchoolAI for sponsoring the episode.
