Dr. Constantine Karathanasis, a professor of classics at Texas A&M, joins Lexie to discuss the role of national mythologies about antiquity, EU debates that separate “ancient” from “modern” Greece, developing an interdisciplinary project linking comedy’s frequent money references to Athenian democratic incentives and behavioral economics, “accuracy” debates in reception, and pop-culture portrayals of ancient economy. So tuck in your togas and hop aboard Trireme Transit for this week’s exciting odyssey! Don't forget to follow us on Bluesky, Facebook & Instagram or visit our website www.theozymandiasproject.com!
