The Death of Alexander the Great 38:27

1M ago38:27

38:27

Alexander the Great: Soldier, Priest, and God. Interview with Professor Fred Naiden 56:09

2M ago56:09

56:09

Professor Fred Naiden wrote one of my favorite books on Alexander the Great - Soldier, Priest, and God - and it provides a much different view of Alexander than the warrior king we so often see in modern treatments. Alexander was a deeply religious person, and his ideas and beliefs about religion were at the core of understanding his actions. Patri…

The Other Ancient Civilisations: Interview with Raven Todd DaSilva 44:14

But the more distant reaches of the past contained multitudes, and Raven Todd DaSilva has written a new book - The Other Ancient Civilisations - about some of them. I chat with her about her favorite lesser-known archaeological cultures and …

2M ago40:30

40:30

Henry V, the Greatest Medieval King: Interview with Dan Jones 1:01:41

Henry V of England was the archetypal medieval king, a warrior par excellence whose example inspired English kings for centuries to come, the victor at Agincourt and conqueror of much of France. Tides of History's returning champion guest, Dan Jones, joins me to talk about his new book on Henry V, the king's childhood and adolescence, and why he ma…

3M ago37:51

The Assassination of Philip and the Rise of Alexander the Great 37:25

37:25

Philip of Macedonia was a towering figure, and if he had been succeeded by anyone other than Alexander the Great, he would be far better known today. But in 336 BC, at the peak of his powers, Philip was assassinated, and it became Alexander's kingdom to expand. He would do so beyond anyone's wildest dreams. Patrick's book is now available!

Elite Networks, Mafia Families, and the Rise of Rome: Interview with Professor Nicola Terrenato 53:43

4M ago53:43

53:43

When we think of the rise of Rome, our usual image is one of conquest: Roman armies marching out year after year to subdue their adversaries.

Philip the One-Eye and the Rise of Macedonia 38:05

4M ago38:05

38:05

For most of the history of ancient Greece, Macedonia was a backwater: a semi-barbarian kingdom on the fringes of the Greek world, only tangentially involved in the dealings of the sophisticated city-states to the south. But with the rise of King Philip II, father of Alexander the Great, all of that began to change very quickly. Patrick's book is no…

The Aftermath of the Peloponnesian War and the March of the 10,000 Greeks 41:30

5M ago41:30

41:30

The famous Greco-Persian Wars didn't mark the end of the relationship between Persia and Greece, but its beginning. For the next 150 years, the seemingly internal politics of the Greek world became increasingly tied to what was happening under the rule of Persia's Greek king, culminating in the Peloponnesian War and its aftermath.

The Samnites and the Alternative to Rome 43:48

5M ago43:48

43:48

We tend to think of Rome's rise to power in Italy as inevitable, but it was far from guaranteed. Their most fearsome enemies within the Italian peninsula were the Samnites, hill-people from the mountainous central regions. But what made the Samnites so formidable, and how were they able to hold out for so long? The answer lies in the fact that they…
