Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss a story that circulated widely in the middle ages about a highly learned woman who lived in the ninth century, dressed as a man, travelled to Rome, and was elected Pope.Her papacy came to a dramatic end when it was revealed that she was a woman, a discovery that is said to have occurred when she gave birth in the street. The story became a popular cautionary tale directed at women who attempted to transgress traditional roles, and it famously blurred the boundary between fact and fiction. The story lives on as the subject of recent novels, plays and films.With:Katherine Lewis, Honorary Professor of Medieval History at the University of Lincoln and Research Associate at the University of YorkLaura Kalas, Senior Lecturer in Medieval English Literature at Swansea UniversityAnd Anthony Bale, Professor of Medieval & Renaissance English at the University of Cambridge and Fellow of Girton College.Producer: Eliane GlaserReading list:Alain Boureau (trans.

New types of snake-bite anti-venoms are designed by AI. Also, how much meat did human ancestors eat? How the Baltic Nord Stream gas pipeline rupture of 2022 was the biggest single release of methane ever caused by humans, and that Pluto met Charon, not with a bang, but more of a kiss.Using a high precision technique for spotting different isotopes of Nitrogen, Tina Lüdecke of the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry has concluded that a group of early hominin Australopithecus living in South Africa were predominantly vegetarian, putting the date that human ancestors started eating meat (and thence growing bigger brains) to more recently. The technique, she thinks, can enlighten prehistoric food webs and ecologies from millions of years ago.Last year's Nobel prizes showed the potential new techniques of AI to design synthetic proteins. Timothy P Jenkins and colleagues decided to try designing treatments for snakebite venoms, with remarkable apparent success. It could save many thousands of lives a year.Since the September 2022 explosions at the Nord Stream gas pipeline in the Baltic sea, many different analyses of how much methane was released have provided a variety of estimates. This week, scientists at the UNEP International Methane emissions observatory – including Stephen Harris - published a study estimating it to be a little under half a million tonnes, making it by far the single biggest human caused release of this most dangerous greenhouse gas. Yet, they say, even that is a tiny fraction of what is released overall around the world every year. And Finally, a new analysis of the original formation of the Pluto-Charon binary Dwarf Planetary system suggests they – and possibly many other Kuiper belt pairing – were born of a gentle astronomical dance and a peck on the cheek, rather than the catastrophic collision we associate with the earth-moon's fiery first date. And it may have lasted just a matter of days, according to author Adeene Denton of the University of Arizona.Presenter: Roland Pease Producer: Alex Mansfield Production Coordinator: Jana Bennett-Holesworth(Photo: Gorilla feeding.

An influential eighth-century Buddhist text, Śāntideva's Bodhicaryāvatāra, or Guide to the Practices of Awakening, how to become a supremely virtuous person, a bodhisattva who desires to end the suffering of all sentient beings.  Stephen Harris's Buddhist Ethics and the Bodhisattva Path: Śāntideva on Virtue and Well-Being (Bloomsbury Academic, 2024) is a study of the Guide. It articulates Śāntideva's moral psychology and virtue theory in chapter-length treatments of four central virtues: generosity, patience, compassion, and wisdom. According to Harris, Śāntideva thinks these virtues benefit human persons, and thus the radically altruistic bodhisattva path is also a self-interested one. Harris's book also explores how this ethical project coheres with the emptiness of all things, the famous Madhyamaka denial of intrinsic nature. Learn more about your ad choices.

Santideva's 8th-century Mahayana Buddhist classic, "The Guide to the Practices of Awakening" (Bodhicaryavatara), has been a source of philosophical inspiration in the Indian and Tibetan traditions for over a thousand years.  In Buddhist Ethics and the Bodhisattva Path: Santideva on Virtue and Well-Being (Bloomsbury, 2023), Stephen Harris guides us through a philosophical exploration of Santideva's masterpiece, introducing us to his understanding of the compassionate bodhisattva, who vows to liberate the entire universe from suffering. Individual chapters provide studies of the bodhisattva virtues of generosity, patience, compassion, and wisdom, illustrating the role each plays in Santideva's account of well-being and moral development. Harris also provides an in-depth analysis of many of Santideva's most influential arguments, demonstrating how he employs reasoning as a method to cultivate moral character. As the first book-length English language philosophical study of Santideva's most influential text, this will be essential reading for students and scholars of Buddhist ethics, as well as for anyone interested in intercultural ethics and the philosophy of well-being.

How do we define sustainable gastronomy? It is said that restaurants sourcing ingredients responsibly, promoting local and ethical produce, preventing food waste, using seasonal ingredients, removing non-recyclables from their supply chains, focusing on local and plant-based menus, and addressing ethical and well-being issues are among the most innovative. In this episode, I sit down with Stephen Harris and we discuss the challenges the industry faces, share success stories, and growl with anticipation as he describes a recipe. This episode highlights his close connection to his environment, refining his recipes for homemade products by making and serving his own butter and sea salt for the first time. I listen in awe as we discuss his menu and the unusually plentiful and distinctive surroundings. We briefly cover the surge in international PR for chefs over the past decade, glamorising the profession, creating television subgenres and celebrity chefs, and paving the way for self-proclaimed Instagram food critics and "foodies." But for me and what distinguishes Stephen from the rest is​ that he is one of the originals and has a humble manner. It is here that I learn more about his highly regarded larder located right on his doorstep, where the sea, salt marsh, and fields interconnect, which saw a menu based exclusively on the produce which has made waves both nationally and internationally.Find Naughty Bites on:Instagram (@anishamistryfernandez) Hosted on Acast.

What do Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Gilmore Girls, and Giraffes have in common? The women are the stars of the show.  Despite being one of the most popular animals on Earth, giraffes are not studied as much as you might expect. You might think that is totally fine. After all, giraffes are not known for being super complicated creatures. Aside from being adorable, their unique geometric pattern, and having purple tongues, their biggest flex is that they stand as tall as 3 Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson's and sometimes fight each other with their Kevin Hart-sized necks. But now, a pair of researchers at the University of Bristol in England, Zoe Muller and Stephen Harris, have discovered that longstanding beliefs about giraffe social lives just do not measure up, and their findings may have huge implications on saving these creatures.

There have been a few changes to NBR's annual rundown of the wealthiest people in the country.Rather than simply focus on wealth for wealth's sake, the editorial team made a call this year to drop the word "rich" from the long-running "NBR Rich List" moniker.List editor Maria Slade said in the aftermath of Covid-19, it was time to rethink the purpose of the ranking system."So, we created The NBR List to put equal focus on profit and purpose."The NBR List honours people who are building enterprises, growing New Zealand's fortunes, creating jobs and giving back."We didn't ask him to say it, but expat American agribusiness investor Tom Sturgess encapsulated the sentiment when he remarked to our reporter: 'Money is like manure, you pile it up, and it just stinks the joint up, you spread it around, it does good.'"The list, which returns after a one-year hiatus caused by Covid-19, features a total 100 Kiwis operating across five categories (Property, Make & Sell, Investment, Agribusiness and Tech & Services).While familiar names like Graeme Hart, the Todd and Goodman families and the Mowbrays lead the Top 10, there are also a few newcomers among the 100 that might catch readers by surprise.The NBR List top 101. Graeme Hart - $11b2. Todd family - $4.3b3. Goodman family - $3.1b4. Mowbray family - $2.5b5. Michael Friedlander - $2b6. Rod Drury - $1.95b7. Talley family - $1.2b8. Bob Jones - $1.1b9. Bruce Plested - $1.02b10. Jim and Rosemari Delegat - $1.01bNewcomers include rocket man Peter Beck; Alison's Pantry and Mother Earth manufacturers Bernie and Kaye Crosby; Jonny Hendriksen, founder of video ad company Shuttlerock; and brothers Chris and Stephen Harris, who sold their gaming studio Ninja Kiwi for $270m in March.To reflect the shifting focus of the list, this year also features a "ones to watch list" that includes Colin Neal and his investment vehicle Polar Capital; South Island venison growers the Whyte family; and Cin7 inventory management system creator Danny Ing.Also, worth mentioning are the philanthropic efforts of some of the influential business people included this year.Douglas Pharmaceuticals managing director Jeff Douglas and veteran investor Sir Christopher Mace's contributions to a $6.2m fund to buy iconic Elliot Bay in the Bay of Islands and return it to the public conservation estate.HW Richardson transport group owners, the Richardson/O'Donnell family, are behind a $33m dementia care village.The editorial team behind the project made a decision this year to exclude those based overseas who contribute little to the New Zealand business community.The biggest departure due to this rule was New Zealand citizen and Silicon Valley billionaire Peter Thiel.The market cap of Thiel's spook software outfit Palantir is large enough to challenge Hart's position as the richest New Zealander.Asked about other high-profile departures, Slade said they "include US-based fund manager Ric Kayne, who has built a few golf courses here but otherwise runs his business interests overseas; the Simunovich family who are mostly offshore-based now; and Lyn Erceg, the widow of liquor baron Michael – she is very wealthy, but does little in the NZ business community".LISTEN ABOVE
