Before Rome had kings or empires, it had a mother — then it erased her. The story of Romulus and Remus isn't about brotherhood or destiny; it's about branding, survival, and how the woman who gave Rome life was turned into a monster.

The Roman emperor Julian (r. 361-363 CE) was a man of action and of letters, which he employed in an effort to return the Empire to the light of the pagan gods, and reverse the Christianization of the empire advanced by his uncle Constantine and the sons of Constantine. This enterprise was inspired and guided by his conversion to the Neoplatonic philosophy and radical pagan Hellenism of Iamblichus and his disciples, and promoted by his production of Greek orations, letters, and satires. These works present a coherent vision of the providentially guided history and destiny of Rome as a series of foundations and refoundations enacted by rulers such as Romulus, Numa, and Caesar Augustus. As this book demonstrates, Julian offers an Iamblichean approach to the exegesis of the legends of Rome's founding, the allegories of Plato's dialogues, and myths of his own creation in order to articulate his own role in the refounding of the Empire. Furthermore, argues Jeremy Swist, approaching the wider examination of Julian's imperial self-image on these terms ends up nuancing and challenging common assumptions influenced by the rhetoric of his contemporary proponents. In his reverence for the gods and for philosophy, the emperor's self-construction embraces the identities of a statesman and soldier more than of a philosopher, of a Roman more than a Greek, and of a mere human rather than a semi-divine being. While distancing himself from the ideal models of philosophical virtue and imperial founding that inspire his own actions, he adopts a different set of exemplary figures as mirrors of himself.

Send us a textA dead station, a desperate crew, and something old that refuses to die—Alien: Romulus pulled us right back into the vent-crawling panic that made this franchise iconic. We unpack why the film's tighter cast, cleaner objectives, and suffocating design make every footstep louder and every choice sting. From that first breathless stalk to a jaw-dropping zero-G showdown, Romulus plays with darkness and silence like weapons, then detonates them at the perfect moment.What surprised us most was the heart: Andy, an outdated synthetic whose dad-joke warmth becomes a knife twist once corporate directives take hold. We dig into how that dual performance reframes trust and turns the station into a social minefield. Then we zoom out to the theme that binds the saga together—motherhood. Alien has always been about bodies, creation, and control; Romulus revitalizes those ideas with a pregnancy plot that heightens empathy and horror in equal measure. It's grotesque, yes, but it's also purposeful, echoing Ripley's lineage, Prometheus's surgical terror, and Resurrection's tragic offspring.Lore hounds, we see you. We trace the black goo breadcrumbs, a chilling chrysalis survival mechanic for xenos, and the risks and rewards of a controversial CGI likeness. When does nostalgia enrich the story, and when does it pull you out? We make the case that Romulus mostly uses its echoes to sharpen stakes—acid blood as a structural threat, environmental tricks that hint at how xenomorphs perceive prey, and character beats that hurt.By the end, we stack Romulus against the greats and ask the big question: did it just earn a place alongside the 1979 original?

When you imagine the city Rome, what comes to mind? Maybe the Colosseum, the Vatican, one of the largest empires in history, or delicious pasta? Rome isn't just Italy's capital; it's also one of the most influential cities in human history. In today's Thinking in English episode, we are going to take a journey through time, from the mythical founding of the city by Romulus and Remus, through the Roman Republic and Empire, the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, and finally to modern Rome. I'm not an expert on Italian history, but I loved researching this episode and I think this is such an interesting topic.

Romarrikets väg till imperium

Att en liten stad vid floden Tibern på den italienska halvön kunde förvandlas till ett imperium som sträckte sig från Mesopotamien till Britannien har fängslat oss i årtusenden. Och Romarriket fortsätter att påverka oss genom språk, arkitektur och lagstiftning.Romarrikets ursprung vilar på legenderna om tvillingarna Romulus och Remus och även hjälten Aeneas från Troja. Dessa myter visar vilka ideal Romarriket byggdes på.Detta är det första av sex avsnitt om Romarriket i podden Historia Nu. Programledaren Urban Lindstedt samtalar med Ida Östenberg, professor i antikens kultur och samhällsliv vid Göteborgs universitet.Arkeologiska fynd visar att bosättningar fanns på Palatinen och Roms andra kullar redan under 800-talet f.Kr. Utgrävningar visar ett samhälle i förändring, påverkat av grannar som etruskerna, och med en växande ambition att härska över mer än bara sina egna sju kullar.Den viktigaste faktorn bakom Roms expansion under antiken var dess militära styrka och organisatoriska skicklighet. Genom ett disciplinerat och flexibelt armésystem, strategisk utplacering av kolonier samt effektiv integration av erövrade folk som medborgare eller allierade, kunde Rom snabbt utvidga sitt herravälde.Det geografiska läget vid Tibern möjliggjorde handel och kommunikation, vilket skapade resurser och strategiska fördelar. Handelsvägar och ekonomiska incitament ledde till välstånd och möjliggjorde import av livsmedel och råvaror – avgörande för att försörja den växande befolkningen och försörja armén. Politisk stabilitet och ett fungerande rättssystem, som de tolv tavlornas lag, bidrog till ordning i ett snabbt växande rike.Roms järnåldersbyar växte gradvis samman. På 600-talet f.Kr. dränerades myrmarkerna mellan kullarna med hjälp av Cloaca Maxima, och Forum Romanum började ta form som stadens centrum.Rom utvecklades från ett kungadöme – där sju legendariska kungar regerade till en republik från år 509 f.Kr. Republiken kom att expandera till ett imperium som kom att dominera hela Medelhavsområdet och stora delar av Europa.Under denna tid utövade etruskerna stort inflytande på Rom. Ett tekniskt och konstnärligt lyft märks i övergången från enkla hyddor till tegel- och stenbyggnader, och från lokala kulter till monumentala tempel. Etruskisk stadsplanering, religiösa ritualer och symboler som fasces införlivades i den romerska kulturen.Etruskerna hade ett utvecklat skriftspråk, avancerad teknik och ett rikt religiöst system som påverkade romarna. Gudavärlden förändrades: den tidigare enkla italiska tron ersattes gradvis av en mer antropomorf och hellenistiskt influerad pantheon. Triaden Jupiter, Juno och Minerva blev symboler för romersk makt och ordning.Omslag: Montage med bröderna Tiberius och Gaius Gracchus som var romerska folktribuner som verkade för omfattande jord- och samhällsreformer till förmån för de fattiga klasserna. En skulpterad framställning från 1800‑talet föreställande de två bröderna Gracchus, utförd av Jean‑Baptiste Claude Eugène Guillaume. Idag uppställd vid Musée d'Orsay i Paris. Wikipedia.

I think the problem, as usual, is going to be people.https://youtu.be/86nhP8tvbLY?si=179uCtun2WcHLHNzI am a music fan and watch many of the big music theory channels on YouTube. Rhett Shull is a musician and YouTuber who has been around the platform for a very long time. In one of his most recent videos, he noticed that YouTube seems to be adding some type of AI filter to his videos and it's not just his videos. In this video he shows several examples and while it looks like YouTube might be using the AI filter to enhance video clarity the most interesting part about it is that he didn't approve it.That's right, it looks like YouTube is adding AI to people's video without their permission or notification.And that to me is the rub.Mike, you're our AI guru what do you make of this?[Kick to Mike]Christina, from an ethics standpoint, what are your thoughts?[kick to Christina]Next, we are back to the world of TTRPGs with a little fun article from EN World.https://www.enworld.org/threads/with-alien-earth-about-to-hit-our-screens-here-for-free-are-a5es-xenid-monster-stats.714828/In preparation for the new Alien series Alien Earth on Hulu, EN World shows some screen shots from the just kickstarted Voidrunners Codex. This new 5E supplement from EN Publishing, the same company that brings you EN World, is a Sci-Fi supplement for D&D Fifth Edition and in their upcoming release they have not one, not two, but 6 pages dedicated to our favorite space monster.Now I bring this up, because some of you might be interested in just such a supplement, and that's cool. But personally, I wanted an opportunity to yell at the Disney Corporation and 20th Century Fox for completely ruining what should have been one of the greatest film franchises in the history of film. I mean seriously, Alien is a masterclass of storytelling and Aliens flipped the script by turning horror into an action/thriller. Then the studio dropped the ball on what should have been a solid David Fincher directed Alien 3. What little good was in that movie was completely excised in Alien Resurrection, then the god-awful Alien vs. Predator films, don't get me started on Prometheus, and Covenant and Romulus just doubled down on the Prometheus crap…And then I tried to watch Alien Earth. It's written by children. Stupid, lazy, and barely literate children.Christina, talk me off the ledge.[Kick to Christina]Mike, what are your thoughts?[Kick to Mike]And there you have it, all the news you've already heard.

Alien: Earth, from Fargo and Legion's Noah Hawley, has now arrived on Disney+, Hulu and FX worldwide. The first two episodes have just premiered, with one episode releasing on each of the following weeks. I consider myself a very casual Alien fan, but I am a bigger fan of it than Predator so there's that. I love the first two films and really enjoyed Fede Alvarez's Romulus from last year as well. The other Alien movies definitely have merit too but I'm mixed-negative on most of the rest of the franchise. Alien: Earth, I believe, is this franchise's first foray into TV. There's been comics for decades and even a really liked video game released, beyond the movies. I had the chance of watching the first two episodes when they dropped and this review will contain my thoughts on the first two episodes, WITHOUT giving spoilers. Enjoy!

Det romerska riket var antikens största och mest inflytelserika imperium. Från att ha varit en liten stadsstat på några kullar vid Tibern, omgiven av etruskiska grannar, utvecklades Rom under 300‑ och 200‑talen f.Kr. till en stormakt i sydvästra Europa och Nordafrika. Därefter växte det till ett kejsardöme som sträckte sig från Skottland i nordväst till Mesopotamien i sydöst – Medelhavet blev i praktiken en romersk insjö.Men hur började det? Byggdes Rom verkligen på sju kullar? Fanns det någon sanning bakom sagan om Romulus och Remus, bebisarna räddade av en varginna, som sedan växte upp till hämndlystna och modiga stadsgrundare? Vem var Lucretia, vars självmord gjorde henne till en kvinnlig förebild för romarna vid Tibern? Hur kunde det lilla Rom underkasta alla grannstäder och skapa ett politiskt system som möjliggjorde expansion åt alla håll? Hur utvecklades strategin "söndra och härska"? Och vilka sanningar finns i Asterix-albumen?I detta avsnitt av podden Harrisons dramatiska historia samtalar Dick Harrison, professor i historia vid Lunds universitet, och Katarina Harrison Lindbergh, fackboksförfattare, om det äldsta Rom. Vi möter både tveksamma hjältedramer och historiska analyser av Forum Romanum, en skildring av det ursprungliga proletariatet och det dödliga nätverket som romarnas stormän utvecklade kring sina residens.Bild: Romulus och Remus diar vargen vid en flodstrand (eftert.

A stunning forensic breakthrough connects two of Michigan's most notorious cold cases, revealing the chilling work of a serial killer who eluded justice for decades.Detective Sergeant Kilbourne, a seasoned Michigan State Police veteran with experience in everything from undercover narcotics to high-profile murder investigations, faces his most challenging assignment yet. Taking charge of the 1986 Margaret Ebi murder case fifteen years after the crime, he discovers a chaotic evidence collection that forces him to rebuild the investigation from the ground up. "We don't have a crime scene, but we got pictures of a crime scene," his superior reminds him as they forge ahead.The turning point arrives when DNA samples preserved from the Ebi crime scene, previously thought degraded beyond use, are submitted to Michigan's state-of-the-art crime lab. What happens next electrifies the investigation – the genetic fingerprint matches DNA from the unsolved 1991 murder of flight attendant Nancy Ludwig in Romulus. Two seemingly unrelated high-profile murders, connected by the invisible thread of a killer's DNA.As the investigation widens, we meet Detective Mike Larson, Kilbourne's counterpart described as "Mr. Yang to Kilbourne's Mr. Ying" – opposite personalities united in their pursuit of justice. Their work parallels the revolutionary case chronicled in Joseph Wambach's bestseller "The Blooding," which documents how DNA profiling first caught a serial killer in England, forever changing criminal investigations worldwide.The path forward becomes complicated when territorial issues arise between state and local agencies. Detective Gordy Melianak, who devoted years to the Ludwig case, finds himself sidelined by departmental politics just as the breakthrough occurs. Will interagency tensions derail the investigation, or can these dedicated detectives overcome bureaucratic obstacles to finally bring closure to two of Michigan's most haunting unsolved murders?Subscribe to The Murder Book for the conclusion of this riveting true crime investigation that demonstrates how modern forensic science can breathe new life into cases long gone cold.Send us a text Support the show

Some murder cases haunt communities for decades, leaving behind unanswered questions and shattered lives. The brutal killing of Northwest Airlines flight attendant Nancy Ludwig at the Airport Hilton in Romulus, Michigan in 1991 is exactly such a case.When Art Ludwig received a phone call that a body had been discovered in Detroit that might be his wife, his world began crumbling. Through a raging blizzard, he made his way to the airport, beginning what he would later describe as the worst days of his life. The devastating visit to the county morgue where he had to identify Nancy's brutally beaten body left him with images that would haunt him for years. "My last image of her is the four or five seconds of looking at her face," Art recounts. "It was so badly beaten you can't imagine going through it."The investigation followed standard protocol—the spouse is always the first suspect. While Detective Milaniak conducted a thorough interrogation, Detective Snyder showed remarkable compassion, refusing to subject Art to a polygraph test given his obvious trauma. Meanwhile, the murders became particularly challenging as the transient nature of airport hotels meant potential witnesses scattered across the country. What makes this case even more compelling is its possible connection to another unsolved murder. Mark and Jonathan Eby noticed striking similarities between Nancy Ludwig's killing and their mother Margaret's murder in Flint in 1986—both women bound, gagged, raped, with their throats cut. Despite their efforts to alert authorities in both cities, these potential connections went largely unexplored.Have you ever wondered how seemingly separate violent crimes might be connected? Listen to this episode to understand how two grieving families sought answers, how trauma reverberates through lives for years, and how crucial investigative connections sometimes fall through the cracks.

In April  Time magazine published a story entitled The Return of The Dire Wolf. Having roamed America's continent for thousands of years, the dire wolf had gone extinct around 10,000 years ago. Until, that is, a company called Colossal Biosciences claims that it has managed to bring the species back to life in the form of two wolf pups: Romulus and Remus. But despite the scientific wonders of gene editing, can we be sure that these pups are genetically identical to the dire wolfs of the past? Are genetics all that matters in the identity of a species? And even if it is practically possible to bring back to life species that have gone extinct - is it a good idea? Are we are morally obliged to bring lost species back to life if we can, especially if humans were responsible in their extinction? Or would such a practices risk "Jurasic Park"-like scenarios and our limited resources for environmental conservation are best channelled in preserving existing species?Jay Odenbaugh is the James F. Miller Professor of Humanities at Lewis & Clark College in Portland, USA.  His research is in the philosophy of science, especially ecology and conservation biology, and environmental philosophy. He is the author of the book Ecological Models (Cambridge University Press)  and has written about the ethics and aesthetics of species conservation and de-extinction. If you enjoyed the episode, please leave us a rating and a review on Apple Podcasts.This podcast is created in partnership with The Philosopher, the UK's longest running public philosophy journalm founded in 1923.

The Romans ended 396 BCE on a high with their military success against the southern-most city of the Etruscans, Veii. But is all well in the Roman world? That may depend on which god you talk to…An incomplete victory?The defeat of Veii leaves the northern peoples - the Capenates and Faliscans - open to Rome's wrath. Their resistance to Rome means that war is on Rome's agenda. This may also explain why we see military tribunes with consular power.A great time for some Roman colonising?Despite the threats to the north, Rome seems intent on setting up a new colony down south towards Volscian territory. Does Rome really have the resources to spare for such an endeavour after a ten-year siege and problems north of Veii? Well, historians have some questions about that!What's up Apollo?Camillus' glorious leadership in taking Veii seems to be undermined by the his vow to Apollo which he had apparently forgotten. This creates real problems as the 10th portion to be offered to Apollo was not collected when the booty was distributed and now people OWE the gods… Will Camillus' reputation emerge unscathed?Things to listen out forIs Veii more attractive to the plebeians than Rome? Scandal!A proposal to send half of Rome's population, patricians and plebeians to Veii - a classic case of Porque Lo Nos Dos?Some very grumpy patricians playing the ‘Romulus' cardBlaming Titus Sicinius for putting ideas into the plebeians' headsConnections with Greek history…A beautiful golden bowl!Drama in Sicily including an appearance from Magon the CarthaginianOur PlayersMilitary Tribunes with Consular PowerPublius Cornelius P. f.

Send us a textThis week we look to deunk myths about rising autism rates and explain the genetic and environmental factors at play, while exploring the resurrection of dire wolves through genetic engineering and how puppy cognition predicts adult dog behavior.• CDC data shows autism diagnoses increased from 1 in 150 children in 2000 to 1 in 31 in 2022• Approximately 80% of autism cases stem from inherited genetic variations with 200+ genes linked to early brain development• Better screening, diagnosis, and awareness accounts for much of the increase in autism rates• Scientists have genetically engineered puppies with dire wolf traits using DNA from ancient remains• The three pups—Romulus, Remus, and Khaleesi—received 20 gene edits targeting coat color, body size, and facial features• Study of 1,400+ puppies shows early cognitive traits persist into adulthood• Puppies good at following pointing gestures became more trainable adults, while those with better impulse control grew into calmer dogs• Understanding puppy cognition allows for customized training approaches that support lifelong well-beingSome Links and Studies:https://www.sciencenews.org/article/autism-adhd-risk-not-linked-prenatal-exposure-antidepressantsS.

P&C drink and review a blonde ale from the Brookeville Beer Farm, then discuss the process of de-extinction -- bringing animals back from the graves of history. Using DNA from dire wolf fossils from 13,000 and 72,000 years ago, Colossal Biosciences claims to have brought the dire wolf back from extinction. What they really did was edit the genes of a gray wolf to look a little more like a dire wolf. The pups -- Romulus, Remus, and Khaleesi -- are white and a little large, but they're not dire wolves. They're just gray wolves that have had some work done. The project raises larger questions. Is de-extinction a good idea? Should we bring back extinct species? The boys discuss.
