The story of why, and how, an arrow ended up in Harold's eye in the Bayeux Tapestry is tied to the politics of the early 19th century, to Napoleon's ambitions and Britain's national pride, and the work of two antiquaries, Anne and Charles Stothard, who travelled to northern France several times to make drawings of the great embroidery. In this episode from our series on Romantic History, originally released in 2022, Rosemary Hill talks to Roey Sweet about the emergence of the Bayeux Tapestry as an artefact of political importance in the early 1800s and the new breed of multi-disciplinary investigators, who, in the years after the French Revolution, studied everything from woollen threads to tombstones in their efforts to imagine the past.

Just off San Pablo Point, near the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge, there's a tiny spec of an island with a beautiful Victorian-era building on it. East Brother Light Station has been there since 1874, its light beaming out to warn boats away from unexpectedly shallow waters. Bay Curious listener Kathleen Taylor noticed the lighthouse on a ferry ride from Vallejo to San Francisco for a baseball game and wondered what went on there over the years. She tagged along as we visited the island and got a private tour with the current keepers.

Is your man clueless when it comes to romance? Does "date night" mean football on the couch? Is his idea of foreplay a slap on the ass? Are you experiencing a "Sex Standoff? If so, You're not alone. This week on Big Lash Energy, Jayna is diving into the sneaky (and shockingly simple) reason so many women end up married to "the least romantic man alive" — and the one shift that can completely change how he shows up for you. Using stories from her own dating history, Jayna breaks down exactly how she did it — and why it might be easier than you think. If you've ever complained about your man's lack of romance, called him out for it, or quietly accepted that "he's just not that guy" — this episode is about to change everything. Grab a pen and paper, because Jayna's teaching you how to cast a spell of your own. Funny, relatable, and just a little bit witchy — this is Big Lash Energy at its best.

Romanticism made Scotland famous. It critically shaped the course of Scottish culture, while impacting on cultures elsewhere and inaugurating the country's still-flourishing and lucrative tourist industry. This book is about Edinburgh's most emblematic architecture over the long 19th century: the castellated and stone built cityscape of national revivalist architecture. It reveals why Scotland had by the 1820s become one of Europe's great centres of Romanticism, due both to the majestic Highlands, and to Edinburgh itself as city of Romanticism. Additionally, Edinburgh developed as the main centre and hub for travellers drawn to Romantic Scotland through the work of James ‘Ossian' Macpherson and Sir Walter Scott: visitors including Schinkel, Mozart, Verne, Turner, Haydn, amongst innumerable others. Edinburgh: City of Romanticism (Lund Humphries, 2026) by Dr. Aonghus MacKechnie also provides a long-overdue counterbalance to the contrastingly much-examined and much-published topic of Enlightenment Edinburgh, showing how this and Romantic Edinburgh have comfortably co-existed. It examines how Edinburgh's Romanticism was similarly driven by intellectuals, amongst whom were Enlightenment figures and artistically talented individuals, and it discusses the legacy of those who contributed to the Romantic cityscape of today; an architecture that provides much of the character of the UNESCO-designated World Heritage Site and of the city that countless tourists come daily to see. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Kyle Grim of Dogwood Tales was born in the wrong century. He really belonged among the Romantic poets, who saw the purity of nature as a source of renewal. I mentioned this to Grim after he told me that a large part of his process revolves around the wonderment of nature. He loves to walk, and in those moments he finds beauty in water, the shadows of trees, and even the ducks. Then again, Grim counts William Faulkner and Breece D'J Pancake among his favorite writers, so his actual influences are more modern. The first time I heard the Harrisonburg, Virginia band's song "McMemories," I was hooked. Their new album Every Star in Rockingham County on Born Losers Records is one of my favorite releases of the year.

"Is it romantic to propose on someone's birthday... or is he just being cheap so he only has to buy one gift?" That single question sparks a full-blown marriage debate in this episode of Married Into Crazy, as Snooks and Lovey unpack a real conversation Snooks had with a group of women who said they'd never want to be proposed to on their birthday — and Lovey isn't having it. Married almost 30 years (together 31), Snooks and Lovey get brutally honest about what a birthday proposal really reveals about readiness for commitment, partnership, and selflessness in a relationship.  This isn't just a proposal story — it's a deep dive into modern dating culture, "prom-posal" one-upmanship, social media narcissism, and the real difference between healthy and unhealthy expectations going into marriage. They cover:  Is a birthday proposal romantic — or a red flag of being "cheap"? Why some women say "my birthday is my birthday" — and what that reveals about readiness for marriage  How social media and "prom-posals" have inflated proposal expectations for an entire generation  The line between selfishness and selflessness in commitment and partnership Why communication about expectations BEFORE a proposal matters more than the date itself  What "immaturity" looks like when it comes to dating, commitment, and merging your life with someone else's  This is real relationship advice and marriage talk from a couple who's lived it — perfect for anyone navigating dating, engagement planning, communication in marriage, or figuring out what healthy partnership actually looks like before you say "I do." 

Richard Tuttle talks to Ben Luke about his influences—from writers to musicians, and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped his life and work. Tuttle, who was born in 1941 in Rahway, New Jersey and grew up in nearby Roselle, lives today in New York, Abiquiú, New Mexico, and Mount Desert, Maine. He combines elements of drawing, painting, sculpture, artist books, printmaking and textiles, often arranged in lyrical installations, yet does not settle in any one discipline or medium. Pushing and pulling between different forms and modes, and between two and three dimensions, he has developed a singular response to architecture, which is often activated in unexpected ways by the placement of the objects he makes and their arrangement in spatial compositions. And while the meaning of the works is often as elusive as their form, they offer poetic enticement for their audience through a delight in broad and often humble materiality and a fertile relationship with different forms of language. Tuttle is seen as a leading figure in Post-Minimalism and certainly contributed to the liberating approach to form, matter and content unleashed by that tendency from the 1960s. But any attempt to neatly categorise his output is profoundly inadequate and limiting. Experiencing his exhibitions, one feels part of a philosophical response to the world, a questioning of what it is to inhabit it and what it might mean to make art in it. As Richard himself said in 1975, “if the artist does a piece of real work and we see it, it's as though we ourselves are doing it”.He discusses the fundamental importance of drawing to all his work and how the line he uses “is not a pure line like most people would think. It's actually the edge of something.” He reflects on art's relationship with the viewer and community, and art's role as a positive force in the world. He expresses his admiration for Van Eyck, for Nam June Paik, for his friend and mentor Agnes Martin, and for Philipp Otto Runge, the German colour-theorist and Romantic painter. He also discusses reading great works of literature in their original language and his love of architecture. He gives insight into life in the studio and answers our usual questions, including the ultimate: what is art for?Richard Tuttle: Half Light, now open and on long term view at Dia Beacon, Beacon, US; Richard Tuttle: Small Sculptures of the 1970s, Modern Art, Bennet Street, London, 3 September-3 October Hosted on Acast.

Romantic love naturally brings strong emotions, physical attraction, and sexual desire, but wisdom means learning to control and direct those feelings appropriately. Instead of allowing desire to become purely physical, restraint can help couples deepen their understanding of each other and grow in character and intimacy.

On Episode 117 of the Daebak K-Rambles Podcast, Jess and Sarah from Kdrama This and the Afternoona Asks Podcast tackle one of the most controversial parts of being a K-drama fan: dropping dramas. What makes us give up on a K-drama, and when does a drop become a hate-watch?Jess and Sarah break down their philosophy on dropping dramas, from being completionists to accepting that life is too short to finish a K-drama you're no longer enjoying.The duo dig into the patterns behind the drop—messy humor, overly angry villagers, boring plots, frustrating characters, ugly leads—and the special agony of dropping a drama starring an actor you love (sorry, Seo In-guk, Ji Chang-wook, and Lee Jae-wook). Plus, they discuss K-dramas everyone else seemed to love but one of them absolutely did not, including The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call, Reply 1994, Extraordinary You, and Dr. Romantic.Not every drop is intentional, so Jess and Sarah also revisit the dramas they meant to finish, including Run On, Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938, and Twinkling Watermelon, as well as the shows they probably should have dropped but stubbornly kept watching. Finally, the Drop List goes beyond K-dramas with C-drama drops like The Untamed, Forever and Ever, You Are My Glory, and A Journey to Love.So grab your unfinished-watchlist shame and join us for a deep dive into why we drop K-dramas, which K-dramas we dropped, and when it's time to stop watching.GUEST: SarahAfternoona Asks Podcast: Available on Spotify, Google, AppleInstagram: @afternoonaasksInstagram: @kdramathishttp://www.afternoonaasks.comhttp://www.kdramathis.comAll K-dramas discussed within this episode:Tale of the Nine Tailed, Descendants of the Sun, Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo, My Mister, Lost, My Liberation Notes, The Potato Lab, Sold Out on You, Brewing Love, Love Your Enemy, Genie Make a Wish, Hometown Cha Cha Cha, Summer Strike, Ms. Incognito, Dear Hyeri, In Your Radiant Season, Cinderella at 2am, Wedding Impossible, A Korean Odyssey, Hotel del Luna, The Greatest Love, Big, Alchemy of Souls, Can This Love Be Translated?, Warm and Cozy, The Master's Sun, My Girl, Delightful Girl Chun Hyang, When the Stars Gossip, Thirty-Nine, Extraordinary You, My Roommate Is a Gumiho, Are You Human Too?, Encounter, Today's Webtoon, Andante, Can We Get Married?, One Spring Night, Operation Proposal, Reply 1994, Run On, Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938, Bon Appetit, Your Majesty, Twinkling Watermelon, My Country: The New Age, Twelve, Boyfriend on Demand, See You at Work, Tomorrow, Jinxed at First, Motel California, Oh My Venus, The Midnight Studio, Heavenly Ever After, Tastefully Yours, Doona, She Would Never Know, Rain or Shine, Arthdal Chronicles, Abyss, Alchemy of Souls, Welcome to Samdalri, Filing for Love, The Manipulated, Sound of Magic, The Worst of Evil, The Impossible Heir, Last Summer, Doctor on the Edge, The King's Affection, Tomorrow, Destined with You, The Matchmakers, Love All Play, Serendipity's Embrace, In Your Radiant Season, Eye Love You, My Youth, Our Movie, The Nice Guy, Iljimae, Marry My Husband, Love Next Door, The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call, Dr. Romantic, The Last Empress, The Legend of the Blue Sea, Head Over HeelsAll other C-dramas and J-drama discussed within this episode:Forever and Ever, The Untamed, A Journey to Love, Last Samurai Standing (J-drama), Well-Intended Love, You Are My Glory, Miss the Dragon, The Legend of FuyaoIntro Music Credit: “Golden Coconut Club” by Tearliner, from the Cheese in the Trap OST.

Mary Shelley didn't just create Frankenstein - she helped invent modern science fiction while forever changing the landscape of horror. This episode, we explore her remarkable life: her radical parents, scandalous romance with Percy Shelley, the personal tragedies that shaped her, and the stormy night that gave birth to one of literature's greatest monsters. Along the way, we'll also trace how a novel written by an eighteen-year-old became one of the most influential stories ever told, inspiring centuries of debate about science, humanity, and what it truly means to be a creator.

Some of the biggest toxic relationship red flags feel romantic in the beginning. In this video, Lee Hammock breaks down behaviors that can be mistaken for love, including constant contact, rushing intimacy, jealousy, big promises, isolation, boundary pushing, and love bombing. Learn the difference between genuine interest and controlling behavior that slowly takes over your time, confidence, and relationships. Healthy love allows you to be yourself, have boundaries, and maintain a life outside the relationship.

It's an often-told, momentous story: how in the summer of 1816, four friends, including famed Romantic poets Percy Bysshe Shelley and Lord Byron, along with Mary Godwin (soon to be Mary Shelley) and Byron's doctor John Polidori, gathered in a Swiss villa and decided to tell each other ghost stories to pass the time. Mary Shelley began to write Frankenstein, and John Polidori wrote what would become the first modern vampire tale. It's hard to imagine a more spectacular outcome for four people--except that there were not four people involved. There were five. In this episode, Jacke talks to novelist Emily Franklin about her new book Love & Other Monsters, which narrates the story from the point of view of the fifth member of the group, Mary Shelley's stepsister Claire Clairmont, whom Mary tried to erase from history. PLUS Mathelinda Nabugodi (The Trembling Hand: Reflections of a Black Woman in the Romantic Archive) stops by to discuss her choice for the last book she will ever read.

On this week's episode of Local Legends Martin chats with best-selling author of over 80 books, Sue Bentley! As Sue explains, her decision to 'become a writer' didn't happen particularly early in her life, though she was ever a reader, inspired by books like Denys Watkins-Pitchford's The Little Grey Men, Kenneth Grahame's Wind in the Willows, and C.S. Lewis' The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe.Only when she was a Mum with children off at school did she decide to put pen to paper, and after ten years of work found herself in print - as an erotic novelist, working under the first of what soon became many pen names!From children's fairy stories to ghost written celebrity books to the dark Gothic fantasy she most enjoys writing today, she has had a fascinating career, rooted in a fascinating place!We dig into Northamptonshire's folklore and heritage, including Sue's love of the Romantic poet John Clare, and, because it's 'Birth Week' on Three Ravens we chat birth folklore as well, including fairy 'stocks', changelings, and 'Chime Children'.We of course get into Sue's most recent novels as well, including We Other, Second Skin, and her upcoming book Flesh Endures - and along the way dig into condescending ideas of 'Women's Fiction' and Romantasy, the significance of the Lang Fairy Tales, and a whole bunch more!Learn more about Sue and her wonderful books at https://www.suebentley.co.uk - though Sue's brand new website goes live on 28th August - which is also the day of the cover reveal for Flesh Endures, so mark your diaries!And as for where to find Sue on social media, she is on Instagram @therealsuebentley, Facebook @suebentleyauthor and on TikTok @suebentley09About Three Ravens

You've healed your childhood wounds. You've done the work on your romantic relationship. You can spot a red flag in a man from three streets away.But have you ever sat down and actually looked at your friendships the same way?In this episode I'm joined by my friend and dating and relationship coach Amy Rushworth, and we go somewhere the internet basically never goes. Not dating. Not men. Female friendship. The wounds, the patterns, the heartbreak that can be just as brutal as anything a man's ever put us through.Amy's spent years helping women heal their romantic patterns, but she's honest about the fact that the next level of the video game for her was her friendships with women. And once she said that out loud to me, I knew this conversation had to happen.We get into why we'll pour endless energy into fixing our love life and completely ignore the same wounds showing up with our girlfriends. Why being the reliable one, the low maintenance one, the one who always initiates, is quietly costing you. And why decentring men might be the single best thing you can do for your friendships.What we cover:Amy's origin story, from an absolute shit show of a dating life to ten years happily married, and why healing her romantic wounds just uncovered a new layer with womenTaking personal responsibility without turning it into self blame, and why looking in the mirror is always the more empowering moveThe overgiver pattern, why it feels like a gift and quietly comes from a wound, and how it trains people to expect nothing back from youWhy relationships with women can be just as savagely traumatising as romantic onesBeing a self centred woman (not selfish, self centred) and why decentring your man is one of the healthiest things you can do for your marriage, your friendships, and yourselfFriendship red flags to watch for, and the green flags that actually matterWhy the ability to receive is just as important as the ability to give, and how hard that can be for an overgiverAmy's advice for the woman thinking "where the fuck did all my friends go"A few of my favourite moments:"Relationships with women can be just as savagely traumatising as romantic relationships."Amy's take on overgiving as a way to stay in control, so you never have to depend on anyone elseThe reminder that friendship is a goal like any other, and sometimes you just have to be brave enough to ask someone to be your friendIf this episode stirred something up for you, I want to know. Screenshot it, pop it in your Instagram stories, tag us both, and let us know what landed.More from Amy:Instagram: @thisisamyrushworthHer new membership, Chosen Woman, is live now for anyone who wants direct support and coaching around dating and relationships.

Wordsworth was not unusual among Romantic poets for his enthusiastic support of the French Revolution, but he stands apart from his contemporaries for actually being there to see it for himself (‘Thou wert there,' Coleridge wrote). This episode looks at Wordsworth's retrospective account of his 1791 visit to France, described in books 9 and 10 of The Prelude, and the ways in which it reveals a passionate commitment to republicanism while recoiling from political extremism. Mark and Seamus discuss why, despite Wordsworth's claim of being innately republican, discussion of the intellectual underpinnings of the revolution is strangely absent from the poem, which is more often preoccupied with romance and the imagination, particularly in their power to soften zealotry.

In this foreplay replay we talk a lot about romance outside of the bedroom, but what does a romantic interlude look like? “I wish my partner were more romantic in bed” is a statement we often hear from women. “Are you kidding me?” is a retort we often hear from men. “I thought we were done with all the jumping through hoops after we got married.” While it is true that many men feel as described, it's also true that both men and women appreciate romance and thoughtfulness in relationships. Bringing romance to a relationship will differ for everyone but based on our experience, there are 4 important elements for adding spice to the bedroom! Let's break down each of these steps!

Today's bad idea spans literature, film, pop culture and plenty else besides: David talks to literary critic and memoirist Catherine Taylor about what's wrong with romantic heroes, from Byron and Heathcliff to James Dean and Jack Kerouac to Bridget Jones's Mr Darcy and Andy Burnham. How did Romanticism give rise to the template for the brooding outsider who gets the girl? Which was the only Bronte sister to see through the myth? Why do romantic heroines get such a raw deal by comparison? And why does this idea lead to so much bad male behaviour? Out tomorrow on PPF+: a bonus episode to accompany this series in which David talks to political historian David Klemperer about the idea of social credit, which promised to save the world in the 1920s and 1930s and ended up doing nothing of the sort. A fascinating story of cranks, conspiracy theorists and crypto-fascists with curious echoes in Silicon Valley today.

When you combine an Enneagram type with a dominant instinct, you get a subtype — and there are 27 of them. This is the level at which most people finally, fully recognize themselves in the Enneagram. Not at the type level, not at the instinct level, but here — where the two come together into something precise enough to actually fit. In this episode, Anthony and I walk through what subtypes are, why they matter so much, and what some of the most striking examples look like in practice. We spend time on the counter-phobic Sexual Six, who presents so differently from the general Six description that mistyping as an Eight is extremely common. We look at the Self-Preservation Four — stoic, tough, nothing like the image most people carry of the Romantic type — and the Social Three, whose image management has become so sophisticated that they can appear humble and self-effacing while running every calculation in the room. We also talk through how to identify your own subtype, what Beatrice Chestnut's work has contributed to this area of teaching, and what to do with the discomfort that often arises when a subtype description lands a little too accurately. If you've ever felt like your type description is about right but something important is still missing — or if you've ever thought you might be two different types — this episode is the one that usually resolves it.   This episode builds on Episode 3 (Instincts). Listen to that one first if you haven't.     RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE: The Complete Enneagram: 27 Paths to Greater Self-Knowledge by Beatrice Chestnut  The Road Back to You by Ian Morgan Cron The Story of You by Ian Morgan Cron Enneagram Assessment | Find Your Type Ian's speaking and organizational work    Follow on Instagram | Facebook | TikTok | YouTube

A ten-year-old boy gallops across the Russian steppe on a Kalmyk horse, collecting plants for his father while German settlers starve in earth dugouts along the Volga. Seven years later, that same boy is standing on the deck of Captain Cook's Resolution as it crosses the Antarctic Circle for the first time in history, sketching birds and icebergs in a cabin so small he can barely turn around. By twenty-two he has circumnavigated the globe, published a book that Christoph Martin Wieland called a masterpiece and Samuel Johnson praised for its prose, dined with Benjamin Franklin in Paris, and been elected to the Royal Society. By thirty he has become the intellectual mentor to a young Prussian named Alexander von Humboldt, who would spend the rest of his life crediting Forster as the man who taught him how to see the natural world. By thirty-five he has helped found the first democratic republic on German soil during the French Revolution. By thirty-nine he is dead in Paris, abandoned by his wife, cut off from his country, and buried in a mass grave during the Terror. Today's guest is Andrea Wulf, author of The Traveller: The Revolutionary Life of George Forster and his Search for Humanity. We discuss how Forster's father dragged him from a parish near Gdansk to Russia at ten and onto Cook's ship at seventeen, why his account of the voyage was considered the finest travel writing of the eighteenth century, and how his travels through the South Pacific convinced him that human diversity was not a hierarchy but a harmony, with all peoples entitled to the same dignity and rights. We look at how he challenged Kant, Rousseau, and Buffon before he was twenty-five, why he threw himself into the French Revolution and helped build the Mainz Republic only to watch the Terror destroy everything he believed in, and why a man who influenced Humboldt, shaped the Romantic movement, and anticipated the concept of universal human rights has been almost completely forgotten.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For decades, people have been addressing love letters to an oak tree deep in the Dodauer Forest in Germany called the Bridegroom's Oak. The hope is that a passerby might find their letter, write back and form a connection. Journalist Elliot Stein visited this romantic post office box and talked to the mail carrier who used to deliver these letters and who one day, found a letter that was addressed to him.  If you would like to address your own love letter to the Bridegroom's Oak, the mailing address is:  Bräutigamseiche, Dodau 99 Dodauer Forst, 23701 Eutin, Germany Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
