Four episodes ago we talked in detail about the Divine Liturgy and its place at the heart of Byzantine life. I put out the call for listeners to ask questions. Particularly those of us not familiar with Orthodoxy or ecclesiastical issues in general. And Father Strickland has kindly returned to answer them. </p><br /><p>The questions are wide ranging and so demand thorough answers which Father John provides. So we decided to split them over two episodes. Today we tackle the Orthodox view on salvation and purgatory. As well as the role of the Ecumenical Patriarch and thoughts on the Byzantine understanding of how the divine played a role in daily life. Then we finish with the Orthodox view of Catholicism, Church Union and evangelisation. </p><p> </p><p>John is the pastor of an Orthodox Church in Poulsbo in Washington State. He wrote a four-volume series about the history of Christian civilization called Paradise and Utopia. He’s also recorded a podcast of the same name as an accompaniment to the books which you can find wherever you get your podcasts or at <a href="http://www.ancientfaith.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.ancientfaith.com</a>.</p><p><br /></p><hr /><p style="color: grey; font-size: 0.75em;"> Hosted on Acast.

<p>Σε αυτό το επεισόδιο έχουμε καλεσμένη τη Δρ. Μαρία Λεοντσίνη, ερευνήτρια στο Εθνικό Ίδρυμα Ερευνών, για να συζητήσουμε τη μελέτη του περιβάλλοντος στις βυζαντινές πηγές. Αναλύουμε τη σημασία της περιβαλλοντικής ιστορίας και της μελέτης της βυζαντινής πανίδας, εξετάζοντας τη σχέση ανθρώπου-φύσης μέσα από λογοτεχνικά και ιστοριογραφικά κείμενα. Η συζήτηση καλύπτει θέματα όπως η κλιματική αλλαγή, η γεωργία, η κτηνοτροφία και η διεπιστημονική έρευνα, ενώ η Δρ.

A conversation with Sarah Bond (University of Iowa) about organized labor groups in the Roman empire. Ancient occupational groups often formed associations (sometimes called collegia) which are often regarded as little more than dining, cult, and burial societies. In her new book, Strike: Labor Unions, and Resistance in the Roman Empire (Yale University Press 2025), Sarah Bond argues that they sometimes engaged in collective action and bargaining. These continued in existence into late antiquity and possibly beyond. Also, check out Sarah's blog History from Below and her contributions to Hyperallergic.
<p>Early modern Europe was a violent place, full of duels, bloody encounters, and decades-long feuds. In many ways, it was more fractious and dangerous than it had been during the Middle Ages. Professor Stuart Carroll is an expert on the social and cultural aspects of violence in that age, and we chat about murder, conflict resolution, and how people made peace in an unsettled time.</p><p>Patrick's book is now available!

The Seleucid realm experienced twelve unusual years of peace during the reign of Seleucus IV Philopator (187-175), but his alleged murder by a corrupt court official paved the way for Antiochus IV Epiphanes (“God Manifest”) to usurp the throne of Syria from his nephew. An incredibly polarizing figure, Antiochus was renowned for his generous donations towards cities and temples, often in honor of his new patron deity Zeus Olympios, but his behavior earned him the scorn of those like Polybius, who nicknamed him Epimanes (“The Madman”).
