Havet lockar och stadsdelar just intill vattnet är numera legio. Men för det krävdes en teologisk helomvändning. Nils Markus Karlsson berättar. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna.Västra hamnen, Kattvikskajen, Södra nyhamn, och Igelsta strand. Oceanhamnen, Eriksberg, Värtahamnen och Norra kajen. Alla erbjuder de strandnära boende med utsikt, promenadstråk och glassbarer. Hela stadsdelar har liksom vridit sig hundraåttio grader och öppnat sig mot havet då hamnkvarteren med sina stelnade kranar och tomma magasin blivit attraktiva. Alla vill vara vid vattnet! Bitande vindar och stigande havsnivåer tycks vara struntsaker jämte havets livsförgyllande vidunderliga skönhet.Det är svårt att förklara för en idag ung människa hur det en gång var – alldeles nyss! I många svenska kuststäder har havet behandlats med likgiltighet. Så kunde man för tio eller trettio år sen gå över tomma stora parkeringsplatser längs kajkanten. Havet har knappt märkts, annat än som rå kyla och fiskmåsars skrin.En prosaisk orsak till detta ryggvändande mot kustlinjen är att folk i detta fattiga och ruggiga land varit upptagna med att överleva. Endast på grund av nytta har människor sökt sig till havet och hamnen. Så när dess näringar drabbats av utfiskning och varvsdöd har ett ingenmansland uppstått.En djupare förklaring finns, men är svårsmält – särskilt i en tid då havsromantiken förefaller så självklar att man tänker sig den som tidlös. Att läsa den franske historikern Alain Corbin innebär en mental kapsejsning – ens föreställningar översköljs av en kraftfull våg, och omtumlad och yr ser man sig om på en helt främmande strand.Boken Territoire du vide – vilket kan översättas till ”Tomhetens territorum” – kom 1988. Corbin har rötter i den franska Annales-skolan vars historiesyn innebär att enskilda händelser och stora kungar betraktas som oväsentligt skum på ytan av historiens strömmar. Vad som är intressant är utdragna djupa förändringar, paradigmskiften i beteendemönster och världsbilder – sådant som kan vara svårt att få syn på eftersom man befinner sig inne i dem och aldrig skulle få för sig att det en gång varit annorlunda.Vad Corbin funnit är att det normala har varit att betrakta havet som både ohyggligt och fult. Han har gått igenom den klassiska periodens litteratur liksom den medeltida och fram till 1700-talet och funnit att undantagen är få. Då havet omnämns så är det i mycket negativa termer. Det är hungrigt, rasande, skrämmande. I en kristen kontext anses det ogudaktigt, en plats bortom skapelsen, bortom människans domäner. Med syndafloden som en självklar referens blir havet vad som återstår av ett straff. Det infernaliska vaggandet ger en aning om att det kan återvända och svämma över landet, och den trasiga klippkantade strandlinjen är en ruin efter det som en gång var helt. I havets väldighet vistas Leviatan och andra vidunder och så dessa fruktansvärda malströmmar som kan uppsluka ett skepp med man och allt. Sannerligen en djävulsk trakt.Corbins talrika exempel visar på en kultur väsensskild från vår – med en djup skepsis gränsande till fobi. Havet är den senare parten i dikotomin ordning och kaos. Berg var inte mycket bättre. De sågs som naturens uppkastningar, vårtor eller otäcka svullnader. Så ogästvänliga och odugliga platser kunde inte vara skapade av Gud utan måste vara rester av något annat, och uttryck för mörka krafter.Men vinden skulle vända.Då havet sågs som en anfäktelse för människor inom en kristen värld så var det inifrån denna som skiftet kom. Det som kallades naturlig teologi innebar en kantring i attityd: Eftersom naturen är Guds verk måste den i sin helhet vara perfekt. En populär filosofisk hållning benämnd providentialism menade att existensens yttersta orsak var försynen, det vill säga: Allt som finns finns för att Gud vill det och vill oss väl. Studiet av världen blir en kristen plikt. Kring 1700 banade sig tankar som dessa fram. Carl von Linné kan sägas vara rörelsens zenit. Från honom utgick lärjungar i alla riktningar för att utröna Skaparen och hans verk.Corbin pekar på hur beskrivningar och tonfall ändras. Havet är nu något domesticerat, övertrumfat av stränderna som får det att hålla sig på sin plats. Den fallande vågen, då havet möter land, liknas vid ett bugande inför Gud. Det ymniga vidsträckta är en gåva till människan, med sitt salt, sin föda, och möjligheten till fortskaffning. Poeterna följer teologerna och lovsjunger detta uppfriskande nya motiv som tidigare – med sin monotoni och blåsande sand – setts som estetiskt hopplöst. En dammlucka hade öppnats. Som bara fortsatt att vidgas.Två trender förstärkte den nya vågen. De besuttna ynglingar som genom en bildningsresa till klassiska orter på kontinenten – en Grand Tour – skulle skaffa sig ett grepp om världen utvidgade rutten till vissa kustlandskap. Vid bukten kring Neapel tyckte sig den beläste möta Tiberius och Vergilius, men här föll man också för de storslaget sköna scenerierna, vilka sedermera beskrevs så att än fler ville se dem. Av än större vikt var att det kring 1750 – då den allt sämre luften i städerna blivit sjukdomsalstrande – började anses hälsobringande att bada.Vad vi ser är förstås de initiala ilarna till dagens oceaniska massturism. De första badorterna av format var Bath och Brighton i England. Succén var brakande; såväl kungligheter som uppkomlingar tog sig årligen till kanalkusten. Läkare föreskrev hydroterapi med ett visst antal dopp under si eller så lång tid. Professionella bad-assistenter sänkte ner badare och huvuden hölls under vattnet – helst så att de omtumlades av en våg. Det talades om att ”ta vågorna” som man tar medicin och närheten till tidvattnet ansågs kunna få en oregelbunden menstruationscykel på rätt bana. 1817 var fenomenet så allmänt att Jane Austen tyckte det var läge att driva med umgängesformerna vid en mindre badort, i den ofullbordade romanen Sanditon.Engelsmännen var först i vattnet men badkulten spreds snart till Frankrike och tyska Östersjökusten. Gustafsberg utanför Uddevalla brukar räknas som Sveriges tidigaste badort med anor från 1780 – även denna fick glans av kungligt besök. Långsamt men grundligt skiftade människornas känsla för havet och kring mitten av 1800-talet var det slutligen upptäckt, enligt Corbin.Men ja, här i Sverige pågår denna upptäckt fortfarande. Med Hammarby sjöstad, Alderholmen, Innerhamnen och Holmarna. Med Västra sjöstaden, Norr Vinstorp, Varvsholmen och Västerport.Många av dagens chica stadsdelar vid havet har förstås industriers nedläggning som grund. Men hade det inte varit för ett nytt synsätt inom teologin för 300 år sedan hade kanske ingen velat befolka dem.Men frågan är väl ändå om inte tidvattnet vänder, igen. Ytan må ligga vackert spegelblank i stadsplanernas prospekt men havets våldsamma kaotiska gränslöshet hotar oss. Som förr. Och mer ändå. Med stigande havsnivåer flyttas bostadsområden från kusten; och människorna konstruerar sköldar, bygger vallar och sinnrika kanalsystem som ska stävja havet, hålla det på plats. Men vidundret är tillbaka.Nils Markus KarlssonkulturarbetareLitteraturAlain Corbin: The Lure of the Sea, The discovery of the seaside 1750-1840, Penguin, 1994.

Pastor Tommy on John 6.

From Bread to Belief: Seeing Jesus as the Giver Behind the Gift This Homily on John Chapter 6 explores the deeper spiritual meaning behind Jesus' miracles, . . . . . . particularly the multiplication of loaves and fishes and his walking on water. The commentary contrasts the emptiness of worldly provisions, symbolized by the Roman emperor Tiberius, with the true sustenance that comes from Christ. It emphasizes that the miracles are not ends in themselves but signs pointing to Jesus' divine identity. The people, however, focus on the physical benefits and miss the deeper spiritual reality. The Lord challenges them . . . and us . . . not to seek God merely for material blessings, but to move from appreciating the gifts to knowing and loving the Giver. The ultimate “work of God” is not action, sacrifice, or ritual, but faith in Jesus Christ . . . the one sent by God. This belief is the cornerstone of spiritual life and the foundation upon which everything else is built. Hear more within the Homily. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Image The Miracle of the Loaves and Fishes: Italian painter: Giovanni Lanfranco: 1620 The painting was commissioned for and may be found in the Blessed Sacrament chapel in the Basilica of Saint Paul Outside the Walls in Rome.

Evangelie Joh. 6, 22-29 Het volk dat aan de ene kant van het meer was gebleven, na de wonderbare broodvermenigvuldiging, had gezien dat daar maar één bootje gelegen had, dat Jezus niet met zijn leerlingen was scheep gegaan, maar dat zijn leerlingen alleen waren vertrok­ken.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the brothers Tiberius and Gaius Gracchus whose names are entwined with the end of Rome's Republic and the rise of the Roman Emperors. As tribunes, they brought popular reforms to the Roman Republic at the end of the 2nd century BC. Tiberius (c163-133BC) brought in land reform so every soldier could have his farm, while Gaius (c154-121BC) offered cheap grain for Romans and targeted corruption among the elites. Those elites saw the reforms as such a threat that they had the brothers killed: Tiberius in a shocking murder led by the Pontifex Maximus, the high priest, in 133BC and Gaius 12 years later with the senate's approval. This increase in political violence was to destabilise the Republic, forever tying the Gracchi to the question of why Rome's Republic gave way to the Rome of Emperors.WithCatherine Steel Professor of Classics at the University of GlasgowFederico Santangelo Professor of Ancient History at Newcastle UniversityAndKathryn Tempest Lecturer in Roman History at the University of LeicesterProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list:Appian (trans.

From Gladiator to Rome Total War to I, Claudius, today the Cohortēs praetōriae are one of the most distinctive military units of Imperial Rome. It was their job to protect the Roman Emperor and his household, a task for which they hold a somewhat ‘chequered' record (especially when we focus in on the Praetorian Prefects). But what do we know about this unit's origins? How did this powerful force become protectors of the Emperor and his household? What other functions did they serve? And how did they differ from the standard Roman legions in their structure?To talk through the rise of the Praetorian Guard, with a specific focus on the reigns of Augustus and Tiberius, Tristan caught up with historian Lindsay Powell at Fishbourne Roman Palace in West Sussex. Lindsay is the author of several books about the Early Roman Imperial Period. His latest book, Bar Kokhba: The Jew Who Defied Hadrian and Challenged the Might of Rome, is out now.Presented by Tristan Hughes. The producer is Joseph Knight.

In this episode of the Ancient Warfare Podcast, Marc De Santis talks to historian and author Lindsay Powell about his latest book, Tiberius: The Reluctant Emperor, published by Pen and Sword. Often overshadowed by his predecessor Augustus and his notorious successor Caligula, Tiberius is one of Rome's most enigmatic emperors. Lindsay delves into the life and reign of this complex figure—his military career, political challenges, and strained relationships within the Julio-Claudian dynasty. Was Tiberius truly the brooding recluse history remembers, or have we misunderstood the man who ruled the Roman Empire for over two decades?   Join us on Patron patreon.com/ancientwarfarepodcast

In this sermon by Chris Romig, he examines the message to the church in Philadelphia from the Book of Revelation, illustrating its resilience amid adversity. The ancient city, known for its missionary roots and constant earthquakes, metaphorically parallels the church's situation—they faced societal exclusion and instability yet remained faithful. Chris highlights Jesus' message promising open doors, representing opportunities for mission and a path to eternal security, despite being a small and seemingly powerless community. He emphasizes that these Christians were commended for their steadfastness and faith, despite living in fear and facing persecution. The sermon encourages contemporary believers to see their trials as part of a larger divine plan. Jesus' assurances of stability, protection from future trials, and eternal security offer hope. Chris motivates believers to hold firmly to God's word and find strength in their faith, reassured that through Christ's authority, they are more than conquerors. In conclusion, no matter life's challenges, it is well with their souls.

How cruel was Caligula? How depraved was Tiberius? And how monstrous was Nero? The dark reputations of these emperors owe a great deal to the Roman writer Suetonius, whose 121 AD work Lives of the Caesars offered intimate portraits of 12 rulers of Rome – from Julius Caesar to Domitian. The popular historian and podcaster Tom Holland has just produced a new translation of the Lives and he speaks to Rob Attar about the profound influence of Suetonius' work – and whether it's an example of ancient fake news.

"Enough of the Princeps, what remains to be described, is the monster..." The Roman emperor Caligula endures as one of the most notorious figures in not only Roman history, but the history of the world. Famed as a byword for sexual degeneracy, cruelty and corruption, the account of his life written by the Roman historian Suetonius has, above all, enshrined him as such for posterity. Throughout the biography there is a whiff of dark comedy, as Caligula is cast as the ultimate demented caesar, corrupted absolutely by his absolute power and driven into depravity. Born of a sacred and illustrious bloodline to adored parents, his early life - initially so full of promise - was shadowed by tragedy, death, and danger, the members of his family picked off one by one by the emperor Tiberius. Nevertheless, Caligula succeeded, through his own cynical intelligence and cunning manipulation of public spectacle, to launch himself from the status of despised orphan, to that of master of Rome. Yet, before long his seemingly propitious reign, was spiralling into a nightmare of debauchery and terror…. Join Tom and Dominic as they discuss the most notorious emperor in Rome: Caligula, a man said to have slept with his sister, transformed his palace into a brothel, cruelly humiliated senators, and even made his horse into a consul. But what is the truth behind these horrific legends? Was Caligula really more monster than man...?  Pre-order Tom Holland's new translation of 'The Lives of the Caesars' here:  https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/279727/the-lives-of-the-caesars-by-suetonius/9780241186893 _______ Twitter: @TheRestHistory @holland_tom @dcsandbrook Producer: Theo Young-Smith Assistant Producer: Tabby Syrett + Aaliyah Akude Video Editor: Jack Meek Executive Producers: Jack Davenport + Tony Pastor Learn more about your ad choices.

The Roman historian Suetonius' biography of the controversial Emperor Tiberius is one of his most shocking and salacious, condemning Tiberius to infamy. But was Tiberius really the perverted monster Suetonius would have us believe? Born of Rome's most illustrious family and a sacred bloodline - the Claudians - Tiberius' mother Livia was unceremoniously taken from his father while she carried him, to marry the great Emperor Augustus. So it was that Tiberius grew up in the very heart of imperial power, proving himself intelligent, and a superb military commander. But, following the unforeseen deaths of Augustus' young heirs, he found himself primed to become the next caesar of Rome. The reign that ensued would prove largely peaceful, prosperous and stable, though Tiberius himself was increasingly plagued by paranoia and fear. While the last of Augustus' bloodline were wiped out one by one, he retired to Capri, much to the horror of the Roman people. Before long, rumours had begun percolating of the heinous deeds, sick proclivities, and vile abominations Tiberius was practicing on his pleasure island… Join Tom and Dominic as they discuss Tiberius, the impressive though widely lambasted second emperor of Rome. What is the truth behind the sordid myths and mysteries of his reign…?

Nu tar Henrik oss med på en surrealistisk färd till en by vid namn Glömskebro, där gräset växer uppochner. Vi möter Snorkel Björndans, den professionella molnskötaren vars vardagliga sysslor med att kamma himlens moln störs av en invasion ledd av den självutnämnda potatiskungen Tiberius.I detta avsnitt väver Henrik samman det absurda med det vardagliga, där valrossar med fjärilsvingar dansar med apor beväpnade med lysande bananer, och där kampen om himlavalvet utkämpas med hjälp av omöjlighetsdrycker och söthetsdueller. Mellan raderna finns här en meditation över acceptans, förändring och modet att möta det okända. När Henrik tar avstickare för att berätta om personliga minnen - som mötet med en aggressiv lejonhona på Parken Zoo eller dottern Harriets första saga - vävs verklighet och fantasi samman till en helhet som känns både främmande och märkligt hemtam.För mer information om Henrik Ståhl, klicka här: https://linktr.ee/Henrikstahl Bli medlem i Somna med Henrik PLUS här: https://plus.acast.com/s/somna-med-henrik.

The Roman historian Suetonius' The Lives of the Caesars, written during the early imperial period of the Roman Empire, is a seminal biography covering the biographies of the early emperors of Rome, during two spectacular centuries of Roman history. Delving deep into the personal lives of the caesars and sparing no detail, no matter how prurient, pungent, explicit or salacious, it vividly captures Rome at the peak of her power, and those colourful individuals at the heart of everything. It is an unsettling yet fascinating portrait of the alien and the intimate, that sees some of history's most famous characters revealed as almost modern men, plotting a delicate line between private and public, respectability and suspicion. From the showmanship of Augustus, the first Caesar, and his convoluted family melodramas, to Tiberius, a monster in the historical record famed for his sexual misdeeds, to Caligula, who delighted in voyeuristic moral degeneracy, and the looming shadow of Nero; all will be revealed… Join Tom and Dominic as they launch into Suetonius and the lives of Rome's most infamous emperors, illuminating a world of sex and violence that both venerates, deifies and condemns absolute power. When the curtain is lifted, what deprivation lurks behind the majesty of Rome? And who was the real Suetonius, the man laying it all bare?

In this sermon by Chris Romig, the focus is on the letter to the church at Smyrna from the Book of Revelation, emphasizing the steadfast faith and tribulations of early Christians engulfed by a culture of paganism and emperor worship. Pastor Chris highlights how Jesus reassures the Smyrnans that, despite their suffering and poverty, they are spiritually rich. He encourages them to remain faithful, promising the reward of the crown of life and deliverance from the "second death." Chris underscores essential Christian doctrines, such as the divinity of Jesus Christ and the truth of His Resurrection, warning against modern progressive theology that seeks to undermine these foundational beliefs. He asserts the biblical teaching of two eternal destinies, heaven and hell, urging believers to hold fast to the core tenets of their faith. Addressing the theme of suffering, Chris refutes the prosperity gospel, emphasizing that faithful followers of Christ are not spared from pain and challenges. Instead, God values holiness over temporal happiness, promising eternal rewards for those who endure tribulations with faith. Chris concludes by drawing inspiration from Athanasius, an early church father known for his defense of Christian truth against heresy. He offers a prayer for courage and faithfulness, highlighting the legacy of past and present believers who remain steadfast in their faith. The sermon reassures Christians that God's promises are true and that His presence guides them through every trial, just as it did for the faithful Smyrnans.

In this episode Professor Ed Watts and I look at the brilliant career and sad life of the Emperor Tiberius. We try to understand how this most capable and intelligent man came to be seen by history as one of the most monstrous of the Roman emperors.In researching for the podcast I came across a really stirring defence of Tiberius in the shape of a monograph by Norman Douglas. On looking into who Norman Douglas was I discovered that he was a great literary figure of the first half of the 20th century. He was also an open paedophile and quite possibly child rapist. In short some of the crimes Tiberius himself was accused of. Here is an article about the man by Rachel Hope Cleves which I found interesting and unsettling in equal measure. Regardless, I think Ed makes a good case for considering Tiberius to have been a good emperor but broken by age, family tragedy and an impossibly demanding stepfather.You can send a message to the show/feedback by clicking here.

Få politiska system i världshistorien tycks, enligt källorna, ha producerat lika många tyranniska och galna härskare som det romerska kejsardömet. Listan över katastrofer på tronen kan göras lång: Tiberius, Caligula, Nero, Domitianus, Commodus, Heliogabalus, med flera. Folk som aldrig läst en rad i de latinska skrifterna har ofta gjort deras bekantskap i tv-serier som ”Jag, Claudius” och filmer som ”Gladiator”.Hur mycket är sant? Stämmer det att Nero var så tokigt ondskefull att han lät bränna ned Rom bara för att få stå och spela lyra i eldskenet och sedan kunna bygga upp världens lyxigaste palats i det brutalt rivningssanerade stadsområdet? Stämmer det att Caligula förklarade krig mot havsguden och tvingade sina soldater att springa ut i Engelska kanalen för att samla ihop snäckor som krigsbyten? Utnämnde han sin favorithäst till konsul? Var Vespasianus så erbarmligt snål att han till och med beskattade kiss? Och hur var det med romarna själva – var de obotliga festprissar som ägnade nätterna åt vidlyftiga orgier och dagarna åt att frossa i dödligt underhållningsvåld på amfiteatrarna?I detta avsnitt av podden Harrisons dramatiska historia samtalar Dick Harrison, professor i historia vid Lunds universitet, och fackboksförfattaren Katarina Harrison Lindbergh om de många uppfattningar och missuppfattningar som vi har utvecklat om romarna och deras kejsare.Bild: Mynt som visar Nero; cirka 64–66.

Relevant Verses: John 21 Theme: Knowing Jesus Leading Question: What does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus? Question: Can you think of any events in your life that seemed bad at the time but in hindsight were meaningful? The last chapter in the Gospel of John contains Jesus' appearance to the disciples on the shores of the Sea of Tiberius. One recognizes here multiple resonances with themes occurring throughout the Gospel. The disciples have returned to their job of fishing, and it is into the ordinariness of daily life that the resurrected Jesus reveals himself. The Gospel provides a list of ...

Pontius Pilate was the Roman Procurator of Palestine during the reign of Tiberius. Though he commanded a Roman legion of 4500 soldiers, his was not a plush assignment. Saddled with governing one of the frontier provinces of the Roman Empire he spent most of his time in Caesarea Maritime where the weather was reasonably decent and where he was able to have minimal contact with the stubbornly unruly inhabitants of the region under his control. Only on high holy days did Pilate trouble himself to go into Jerusalem so as to be present should any sort of problem arise. Still, he was the face of the Roman Empire in that part of the world, and as such, he literally had the power of life or death over the people under his control. Yet, for all the trappings that went with his position, it is quite possible that Pontius Pilate would have lived and died utterly forgotten by history had it not been for one fateful day when he crossed paths with a Galilean Jew named Jesus of Nazareth.

"#Londinium90AD: Discarded Tiberius misbehaves. Pious Cleopatra scorns. Michael Vlahos, Friends of History Debating Society. @Michalis_Vlahos1891. Sarah Bernhardt as Cleopatra."

Last week, a man armed with an assault rifle was apprehended on a southern Florida golf course. He was planning to murder Donald Trump on the links. It was the second near miss in two months. It seems likely that the shooter, Ryan Routh, was acting alone. But he is not alone in the hatred he has for Trump. He shares that with millions of Americans. In many people's eyes, the 45th president of the United States is an existential threat to our republic. And ever since Trump won the Republican nomination for president in 2016, his opponents have treated him as such.  They were shocked because Trump broke many of the rules of modern politics. From the minor to the unprecedentedly major. This dynamic between Trump and his haters has changed the chemistry of American politics. In 2016, Trump shocked the country when he led rallies where his adoring fans chanted, “Lock her up.” Eight years later, crowds chant “Lock him up” at Kamala Harris's rallies. In this respect, Routh is part of a larger problem that is tearing our country apart. When the other side vying for power is considered so beyond the pale, the norms of political decorum and fairness are worth breaking to stop an opponent that threatens our very system. You hear it from both parties. Trump is an “extinction-level event.” If Kamala wins, our country will become “Venezuela on steroids.”  One escalation begets the next, until the old customs and rules of our politics have changed forever. We take it for granted today that we settle our elections with voting and not shooting. But republics don't last forever. And when they fall, violence almost always follows.  What leads a republic to choose the gun over the ballot? Because it doesn't happen all at once, at least if history is any guide. In ancient Rome, the rule-breaking of one man—and the response of his enemies—created a crisis from which the Roman republic never really recovered. His name was Tiberius Gracchus. And while they were different in many ways, he was the Donald Trump of his day.  Tiberius, like Trump, was an elite who turned on the elites, a class traitor who channeled the resentments and anger of the common man against a system rigged against him. Both men disregarded the unwritten political rules of their era. And, in turn, those norm violations prompted their enemies to disregard the rules themselves. In Rome, this cycle led to bloodshed and eventually the death of the republic itself.  In America, we remain a republic, for now, but the cycle of escalations between Trump and his opponents strains our foundations like no political crisis since the civil war. Today, Eli Lake explains what the beginning of the end of the Roman republic tells us about the fate of our own republic. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Annals, Tacitus' study of the emperors from Tiberius to Nero, covers some of the most vivid and ruthless episodes in Roman history. A masterclass in political intrigue (and how not to do it), the Annals features mutiny, senatorial backstabbing, wars on the imperial frontiers, political purges and enormous egos. Emily and Tom explore the many ambiguities that make the Annals such rewarding as well as difficult reading, as they discuss Tacitus' cynicism, knotty style and approach to history.Non-subscribers will only hear an extract form this episode.

In this bonus episode, you get a sneak peek of the great stuff going on in Western Civ 2.0. You can join for a free trial by clicking HERE.After the Third Punic War, the Romans wasted little time turning on each other. Long-standing economic inequality became the issue of the late second century BCE and would, eventually, bring down the republic. In the late 140s, however, Tiberius Gracchus believed his land redistribution scheme might just solve the problem. The Senate felt otherwise. But, in the end, it was not the Lex Agraria per se that cost Tiberius his life. Rather, it was his refusal to play the political game by the old rules. 

Agrippina was the great granddaughter of the first Roman Emperor, Augustus; the grand niece of the second Emperor, Tiberius, the sister of the third, Caligula, wife of the fourth, Claudius and mother of the fifth, Nero. After several personal tragedies, Agrippina became ruthless in her pursuit of security and power. As a woman, she couldn't rule herself, so she manipulated and murdered her way into the Emperors bed; then secured her own son's place on the throne. Only to have him turn on her and order her elaborate assassination. Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

#Londinium90AD: Gaius & Germanicus admire how the presidential campaign conversation switched without effort from Tiberius to Cleopatra.  Michael Vlahos. Friends of History Debating Society. @Michalis_Vlahos 1872 Excavation of the Roman Forum

To coincide with the re-release of Dynasty in audiobook, now with Tom Holland himself narrating, we have the book's introduction for you to enjoy.   Dynasty, the sequel to Rubicon, is a dazzling portrait of Rome's first imperial dynasty, tracing the full astonishing story of its rule of the world. Ranging from the great capital rebuilt in marble by Augustus to the dank and barbarian-haunted forests of Germany, it is populated by a spectacular cast: murderers and metrosexuals, adulterers and druids, scheming grandmothers and reluctant gladiators.   Dynasty's re-released audiobook, narrated by our very own Tom Holland, is OUT NOW in the UK. _____ Dynasty continues Rubicon's story, opening where that book ended: with the murder of Julius Caesar. This is the period of the first and perhaps greatest Roman Emperors and it's a colorful story of rule and ruination, running from the rise of Augustus through to the death of Nero. Holland's expansive history also has distinct shades of I Claudius, with five wonderfully vivid (and in three cases, thoroughly depraved) Emperors—Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, and Nero—featured, along with numerous fascinating secondary characters. Intrigue, murder, naked ambition and treachery, greed, gluttony, lust, incest, pageantry, decadence—the tale of these five Caesars continues to cast a mesmerizing spell across the millennia. _______ *The Rest Is History LIVE in the U.S.A.* If you live in the States, we've got some great news: Tom and Dominic will be performing throughout America in November, with shows in San Francisco, L.A., Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Boston and New York.  *The Rest Is History LIVE at the Royal Albert Hall* Tom and Dominic, accompanied by a live orchestra, take a deep dive into the lives and times of two of history's greatest composers: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Ludwig van Beethoven.

Julie… Rochester, MN… I’m a cradle Catholic and I have a two-part question about baptism:  I’ve had relatives who wished to have their children baptized by a priest, but the priest denied them because of their living situations and lack of practicing their faith themselves. I understand that any Christian baptism is valid as long as proper form is used, so these relatives likely could have gone to another Christian church and had their children baptized and it would have been seen as valid by the Catholic Church. So what is the reasoning for just not baptizing the children in the Catholic Church as requested, when other baptisms would be considered equally valid? It seems that the other Christian churches are more willing to offer the grace to the innocent child. Also, in the Catholic Church, holy water is used for baptism. This is not available in other Christian churches, and often not available in emergency situations either, so I’m having difficulty seeing those baptisms as equally valid.  …
