They don’t necessarily warrant hours of deep analysis, but they are absolutely worth sharing. And since I cannot retain an infinite amount of information but I love giving you more content, I will put these out, as I find them, in this short, story-only format.  Now, on to this weekend’s myth, the story of Arachne, the talented Lydian weaver, who challenged the Goddess Athena to a contest, sort of by accident, and wound up with quite the itsy-bitsy problem. *** SUPPORT PODYSSEY ON ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/PODYSSEY⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ *** (COVER ART: Nikolaos Gyzis/Νικόλαος Γκύζης, "Η Αράχνη/Arachne", 1884 - Εθνική Πινακοθήκη/National Gallery, Αθήνα/Athens) (MUSIC: Roussel: "Le Festin de l'Araignee", Jean Martinon, 1953; Canteloube: "Lo Fiolairé" (The Spinner), Madeleine Grey, 1930; Debussy: "The Maid with The Flaxen Hair", Laurindo Almeida, 1964; Verdi: Requiem "Des Irae", Tullio Serafin, 1939; "That Old Black Magic", Beryl Davis with the Stephane Grappelli Quartet, 1943.)

To receive the illustrated guide to each episode and an invitation to the live Q&A on Thursday 16th April at 8pm, become a monthly supporter! *** SUPPORT PODYSSEY ON ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/PODYSSEY⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ *** From a Phoenician Princess kidnapped from the beach, to Nazi experiments trying to revive the Zeus-Bull; from victim to mother of the Minoan civilisation; from the Catholic Church, to the euro currency... The myth of the abduction of Europa is, in many ways, the most consequential one for modernity. It is the source of our sense of Westerness. The link to a past that acts as a decryption key, that turns a series of points into an arc. It is the origin story of our view of the world in which we live. ... The myths, tales, and concepts of ancient Greece echo and reach into every aspect of modern life. Often misunderstood, frequently romanticised, and sometimes deliberately twisted - to understand their origins and truth is to get a real glimpse into the universal themes that connect us to the past and each other. Welcome to Podyssey with Alex Andreou. Each week we will take one myth, one concept, person, place, or theme from Ancient Greece, take it apart, figure out its inner workings, trace its influence, juice it for its wisdom, reimagine, update and put it back together - all shiny and new!

Mein Archiv

Deine Privatkopie der Folgen, die du nicht verlieren willst.

Podcast-Folgen verschwinden. Feeds werden auf die letzten Episoden gekürzt, Hoster räumen alte Dateien ab, Formate wechseln den Anbieter und lassen ihr Archiv zurück. Mit „Mein Archiv“ sichert podcast.de die Folgen deiner Podcasts für dich — angefangen bei den ältesten, denn die sind zuerst weg.

  • Deine gesicherten Folgen bleiben hörbar, auch wenn das Original offline geht.
  • Auch Folgen, die im heutigen Feed gar nicht mehr stehen — podcast.de kennt sie noch.
  • Herunterladen bleibt möglich, solange die Folge beim Podcaster liegt. Der zählt seine Abrufe wie bisher.
