<p>Σε αυτό το επεισόδιο με καλεσμένο τον Δρ. Νίκο Τσιβίκη, υπεύθυνο ερευνητή του προγράμματος Byzantine Agricultural Landscape Across the Aegean, συζητάμε για τους οικισμούς στο Βυζάντιο. Αναλύουμε την πολεοδομική οργάνωση των πόλεων καθώς και τα υλικά κατασκευής τους. Όπως κάθε ζωτικός οργανισμός έτσι και η πόλη αλλά και το σπίτι εξελίχθηκε στο πέρασμα των αιώνων και η βυζαντινή πόλη εμφανίζει ιδιαίτερο ενδιαφέρον υπό το πρίσμα αυτό. Το μόνο σίγουρο είναι πως δεν υπήρξε μία τεχνική και οργάνωση αλλά το σύνολο του οικισμού επηρεάστηκε από τις εκάστοτε γεωγραφικές και πολιτισμικές συνθήκες.</p> <p>_____________</p> <p><strong>Για να ακούσεις το podcast μας, κάνε click στο παρακάτω link:</strong></p> <p><a href="https://linktr.ee/byzantioexplainedpodcast"><u><strong>https://linktr.ee/byzantioexplainedpodcast</strong></u></a></p> <p><strong>Email: </strong><a href="mailto:[email protected]"><u><strong>[email protected]</strong></u></a></p> <p><strong>Ακολουθήστε το Podcast</strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbGZDM1dmdzBONmwtNVBNMDBwVjJOM2NVWjdVQXxBQ3Jtc0tsSWdYOFREUWVZYWd0WTVLV1V1S0JkRF9KanNqSVlrS2JpbU9pbnd1RGFJTlJyNzdia19meHZJeDlqOVhfdmF3QjBqUmwzQUtmVklic1ZZa09yXy1ES0ZKZ3ZWZjY0dlMzcnA2TXlwWURYMjZxX1R1WQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Ftrip.flakes%2F"><u><strong> </strong></u></a></p> <p>Instagram ►<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbUNLaHpxMnNONnpwemlkTUV2NlNiR3N0OTRVd3xBQ3Jtc0tuMjV2V2stRjREX00xX0EzV0F4U1ZEREdIalhwcm1wNHJoakJFQkR0bURVdVEwOVJUR1lOM1B6TGNRRTFwMlA5RzEtNUxrVjhfMy1ZZXBhbE9oTWtDekxZV215Z2tTNWs3cUFQUUlTTVJobi1zQS00SQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Fgrecontrek%2F"><u> </u></a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/byzantioexplained_podcast/"><u>https://www.instagram.com/byzantioexplained_podcast/</u></a></p> <p>Twitter ►<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqay10YVNRUGwxeTduN3RDbGJNd3c0UGZEYmQwQXxBQ3Jtc0trWE1yZ0xrTXg5NUszNW8wWm1jX3ZOeVVCaHN3MEVUY3VKclhLUVpNNnk2dXRGU2hpdVJuV1hCcGhwWF85TXIwbFJRTW5BeXJLdENFOHJLMGNLUzl0RXpnQWNQcEJXSFNrOEpIZ2JheGJraUtEYVBrVQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Fgrecontrek"><u> </u></a><a href="https://twitter.com/ByzantioP"><u>https://twitter.com/ByzantioP</u></a></p> <p>Facebook ►<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqay10YVNRUGwxeTduN3RDbGJNd3c0UGZEYmQwQXxBQ3Jtc0trWE1yZ0xrTXg5NUszNW8wWm1jX3ZOeVVCaHN3MEVUY3VKclhLUVpNNnk2dXRGU2hpdVJuV1hCcGhwWF85TXIwbFJRTW5BeXJLdENFOHJLMGNLUzl0RXpnQWNQcEJXSFNrOEpIZ2JheGJraUtEYVBrVQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Fgrecontrek"><u> </u></a><a href="https://twitter.com/ByzantioP"><u>https://www.facebook.com/groups/152543203490143</u></a></p> <p>Spotify ► <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/3FtJ3ixEZiYBwuqyQ81mdg"><u>https://open.spotify.com/show/3FtJ3ixEZiYBwuqyQ81mdg</u></a></p> <p>Apple Podcasts ► <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/gr/podcast/byzantio-explained/id1554787771"><u>https://podcasts.apple.com/gr/podcast/byzantio-explained/id1554787771</u></a></p> <p>Anchor.FM ►<a href="https://anchor.fm/byzantio"><u>https://anchor.fm/byzantio</u></a></p> <p>YouTube ► <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCumFGMN8OHqCxrxRl-wTEQA"><u>https://www.youtube.com/c/ByzantioExplained</u></a></p>
Alexandria, or Alexandria-by-Egypt as it was called, was the easily the greatest city of the Hellenistic Age. Founded by Alexander the Great in 332/331, it became the pet project of the Ptolemaic dynasty, who turned it into the capital of their mighty empire. Through the dynasty's direction and enormous amounts of money, the city was endowed with magnificent works of art and architecture, all the while playing host to an great body of scholars and artists. From the cosmopolitan makeup of its population to its legendary monuments like the Lighthouse of Pharos and the Library, I will be giving a sightseeing tour of Alexandria during its heyday under the reign of the Ptolemies.

<p>What do Achilles and Gilgamesh, two of the most renowned literary figures of the ancient world, have in common? A great deal more than you might expect. I talked to Professor Michael Clarke of the National University of Ireland, Galway, one of my favorite people in the world and an enormously creative and thoughtful scholar, about his recent book - <em>Achilles beside Gilgamesh: Mortality and Wisdom in Early Epic Poetry. </em>We discussed Homer, the world of the Bronze Age, how literature moved, and why so many of the same motifs appeared at various places and times in heroic literature.</p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Achilles-beside-Gilgamesh-Mortality-Wisdom-ebook/dp/B07Z881KV7" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Get Professor Clarke's book, <em>Achilles beside Gilgamesh</em>, here</a>.</p><p>I wrote a book, and it comes out in July!

All episodes can be found here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1569658/supporters/new I begin todays episode in the year 358, Phillip is looking to secure some sort of an economic stability for his kingdom so he set his sight on the nearby mines. Then he decides to siege Aphipolis in the year 357, which went really well, for Phillip that is, not so much the Athenians that loved having some sort of control of the city. I say a few words about the Social War, a nice little whore...
A conversation with Cecily Hilsdale (McGill University) about the history and ritual functions of Egyptian obelisks, from ancient Egypt down to Rome, Constantinople, and beyond. What do obelisks mean to say and how do they function in their architectural settings, especially in the hippodrome of Constantinople? How do they project imperial ideologies? The discussion is based on Cecily's study of 'Imperial Monumentalism, Ceremony, and Forms of Pageantry: The Inter-Imperial Obelisk in Istanbul,' in The Oxford World History of Empire, v. 1: The Imperial Experience (Oxford University Press, 2021) 223-265.
<p>Egypt and Mesopotamia are the most famous civilizations of the ancient world, but at the same time in South Asia - today's Pakistan and India - an even larger and more populous society came into being: the Indus Valley Civilization, whose peak lasted from 2600 to 1900 BC. But the Indus Valley Civilization challenges much of what we think we know about ancient societies, from inequality and violence to political control.</p><p>I wrote a book, and it comes out in July!

<p>South Asia - encompassing Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan - is one of the cradles of human civilization, and today it's home to one in every four people in the world.

A conversation with Alexander Lingas (City University of London) on the debates surrounding the reconstruction of Byzantine music. We discuss the common origins of western and eastern Christian traditions, when they parted ways, and how both traditions passed through phases of reinvention. Why does the modern performance of Gregorian Chant sound so different from Byzantine chant? As the director of the vocal ensemble Capella Romana, Alexander comes at this question from both a performance and a research angle. His publications include 'Medieval Byzantine Chant and the Sound of Orthodoxy,' in the volume Byzantine Orthodoxies (Ashgate 2006) 131-150, and 'Performance Practice and the Politics of Transcribing Byzantine Chant,' Acta Musicae Byzantinae 6 (2003) 56-76. Stay tuned at the end for a recording of an imperial acclamation for John VIII Palaiologos.
