A podcast telling the lesser-known stories of the Hellenistic period (c.323 – 32 BCE), year-by-year. From the founding of Epicureanism to the sack of Corinth; from refugees hiding in caves to a bureaucrat running a great estate. Poets, philosophers, civil servants; mothers, doctors, prostitutes; everyone in-between. See you in Alexandria!

  • 4b: The Derveni Papyrus

    4b: The Derveni Papyrus
    2026/07/25

    Our second B-side presents the Derveni Papyrus, a 4th-century BCE philosophical treatise found in Macedon about the mysterious Orphic religion: the creation of the world, the gods, and the origins of human beings. Zeus has sex with his mom and the Titans eat Dionysus. It's wild!

    I narrate the Derveni fragments in their entirety, accepting the restorations in the Loeb edition by André Laks and Glenn Most.

    UPDATE 8/5: a kind listener, @CeleraViceroy on Twitter, pointed out some audio errors on the original file. I've (hopefully) fixed those errors. Thanks so much, @CeleraViceroy!

    Dates mentioned: c.380-c.300 BCE.
