Hello friends,
Episode 2 of the Athenaeum Podcast is now live!
This time, it’s a deep dive on Homer’s Iliad, the foundational epic of Western literature.
Jeremy is joined by Dr. Sean Lake, a renowned scholar of the classics, to look closely at the Iliad as well as the mysterious world of Homer himself…
Enjoy!
