Hi guys, I have an incredible invention related to the Ancient Greeks. The invention or discovery is that Ancient Greek language, had magical energy, rhythm and spirituality which allowed their incredible development over their two Amazing Centuries. To understand this please see the video th-cam.com/video/yMYiJ4eC7l8/w-d-xo.html or read the book "Evolutionary Alarm Sounds within Languages"
Another brilliant lecture. Thank you Professor. I just wish we could have seen the images as he was describing them. The fleeting glimpse before, was too quick upon whichto reflect.
54:50- The Athenians won Pylos/Sphacteria. That was Sparta’s island of disaster. It opened the door for the Peace of Nicias. Astonishing that he got that wrong.
Professor Paul Cartledge. Wonderful Presentation. It is astonishing, though, that British Historians haven't yet educated themselves to the precise pronunciation of Our Hellenic names. They shout out.... Greek.. this...Greece ..That . The Barbarian Romans coined the name "Greek...Greece" and, foolishly, History ran with it. WE DID'NT !! We Are.. "ELLENES".. not Greek....OUR MYTHICAL COUNTRY IS ..."ELLAS" ....not Greece ! How simple could this be for flamboyant English spoken today, raising their stature at the podium, honoring .."Who & What We Really Are" ! "Οι Αρχαίοι Τώρα Κωδικοί στην Έγκριση" "Our Ancients Now Nod in Approval"
Hellenes are called Greeks in English and Hellas called Greece so these terms are used. You also change the original name, omitting the "h" sound which was present in the ancient pronounciation. Also, Grekos was mention already in Hesiod as one of the founders of the Greek race, Aristotle also mentions the name Grekoi which the Romans later adopted for the Hellenes. There is nothing bad with the term, it's a usual case of an exonym as opposed to an endonym.
54:29 But the Athenians won the battle of Pylos and Sfaktiria - they did not loose they won- the Spartans lost....so of course they would dedicate the temple of Athena Victory to this cause or?

Great lecture..... really felt like it was only 15min long.
54:50- The Athenians won Pylos/Sphacteria. That was Sparta’s island of disaster. It opened the door for the Peace of Nicias. Astonishing that he got that wrong.
I agree.He got it wrong. A schocking surrender by Spartiates.
agree.
The meat of it starts at 4:50
Excelent.
great lecture
thank you for coming to the point after ten minutes of waffling about himself, his career, his books...
Interesting stuff. I wonder if the term “myriad” was derived from the “10,000” immortals? Laurence
That poor mic.
Speaks about a picture for 10 minutes, don't show the picture....

The books it's very good.leandroguima.
so um why didn't the helots betray Greece?
Actually there was a helots rebel against Sparta. Sparta even asked Athens to help to fight the rebels.

You had to put your two cents in . . just to say something, hadn't you?
