Escribe Homero: “Allí crecen altos árboles que fructifican: perales y granados, manzanos con su fruto brillante, higos dulces y olivos fértiles… pera sobre pera madura, manzana sobre manzana, uvas en racimo sobre racimo, y higo sobre higo; estos eran los espléndidos dones de los dioses en la morada de Alcínoo.” Es decir, Homero ya conocía y valoraba el cultivo de la pera, considerándola parte de un jardín idealizado, casi divino. Y en el mundo de los mitos, la pera no se queda al margen.La pregunta concursus de la semana que viene: ¿Cuál es la diosa que arrojó la manzana de la discordia en las bodas de Tetis y Peleo?

¿Sabías que los romanos ya hacían festivales gastronómicos? Sí, mucho antes de Alicante Gastronómica ya existía el primer gran “festival del buen comer”: la cena de Trimalción, narrada por Petronio en El Satiricón. Allí se servían lirones asados con miel y amapola, jabalíes rellenos de morcillas y salchichas, y platos decorados según el zodiaco: pies de vaca en Tauro, langosta en Capricornio… una auténtica carta astral para el estómago.¿Qué significa "gastronomía"? Viene del griego gastér (estómago) y nómos (ley, norma).Literalmente, “la ley del estómago”. Es decir, el arte de regular el buen comer.Y por cierto, si alguien te parece pesado, recuerda que en latín “stomachosus” era “malhumorado”, y de ahí nuestro “estomagante”. ¡Todo está en el estómago! Los romanos lo tenían claro:"Vinari, letari, ludere, ridere: hoc est vivere".Beber, alegrarse, jugar y reír: eso es vivir. Escuchar audio

Esta semana en Verba Volant nos hemos ido a clase con el centauro Quirón, el profe más mítico del Olimpo. Allí están Aquiles, Jasón, Asclepio y hasta Hércules… pero ojo, que no son precisamente alumnos modelo. Quirón tiene que tirar de mucha disciplina (palabra que en latín quería decir “aprender” y en la Edad Media… ¡látigo!). Entre sandalias mal atadas, planes de cruceros y siestas en clase de anatomía, descubrimos que incluso los héroes necesitaban que les metieran en vereda. Y todo, con humor y con los clásicos siempre de fondo.Escuchar audio

Collīsiō Liverpoliī Liverpoliī in Britanniā Paulus Doyle, vir quīnquāginta et trēs annōs nātus, raedam suam in turbam hominum dīrexit, quī pompam in honōrem gregis pedilūsōrum celebrābant.

Marcus Aurelius Anderson is a Bestselling Author, TEDx Speaker and International Keynote Speaker, and Leadership Coach to Warriors, CEO's and entrepreneurs. He's also the host of the top rated Acta Non Verba Podcast. While preparing to deploy with the U.S. Army, Marcus suffered a severe spinal injury that left him paralyzed. After dying on the operating table twice, the surgeons saved his life, but told him he'd never walk again. Having no other option, Marcus started doing some brutally honest soul searching, looking for the lesson to be learned from his injury. Once he started seeing his Adversity as a gift instead of a curse, something miraculous began to happen... Marcus now speaks, writes, inspires and coaches others to overcome their own Adversities to actualize their personal definition of success in business and every aspect of life.

Our book is: Thanks to Life: A Biography of Violeta Parra (UNC Press, 2025), by Ericka Verba, which explores the life of Chilean musician and artist Violeta Parra (1917–1967). Parra is an inspiration to generations of artists and activists across the globe. Her music is synonymous with resistance, and it animated both the Chilean folk revival and the protest music movement Nueva Canción (New Song). Her renowned song "Gracias a la vida" has been covered countless times, including by Joan Baez, Mercedes Sosa, and Kacey Musgraves. A self-taught visual artist, Parra was the first Latin American to have a solo exhibition at the Museum of Decorative Arts in the Louvre. In this remarkable biography, Dr. Ericka Verba traces Parra's radical life and multifaceted artistic trajectory across Latin America and Europe and on both sides of the Iron Curtain. Drawing on decades of research, Dr. Verba paints a vivid and nuanced picture of Parra's life. From her modest beginnings in southern Chile to her untimely death, Parra was an exceptionally complex and talented woman who exposed social injustice in Latin America to the world through her powerful and poignant songwriting. This examination of her creative, political, and personal life, flaws and all, illuminates the depth and agency of Parra's journey as she invented and reinvented herself in her struggle to be recognized as an artist on her own terms.

Ericka Verba, professor and director of Latin American Studies at Cal State LA, joins the podcast to discuss her new book "Thanks to Life: A Biography of Violeta Parra." Verba shares Parra's central role in the creation of Chile's Nueva Cancion movement, breaks down the strength and resilience that allowed her to become an internationally recognized artist despite her humble class origins in Southern Chile, and draws parallels between Chile in the 1960's and the U.S. current authoritarian moment.
