Ancient World Richard Emerson

A new conversation with Sean Eckmann from Mythos & Logos, where we're looking at the role of emotion, passion, and intervention of the metaphorical Gods in the Ancient Epics of the Iliad, Odyssey and Virgil's Aeneid.
Sean's youtube channel is here: mythosandlogos.net - and the first of his three videos on these great epics is coming out in a few weeks.
Enjoy!
