Pericles and the Shape of a City’s Soul

Pericles' Athens was more than marble temples and famous speeches. It was a living experiment in democracy -- flawed, fragile, and dazzlingly ambitious. I'll take you into the heart of the Pnyx, where voices rose in debate, and through the streets where ideas shaped the destiny of a city. Along the way, we'll pause to reflect on the place of women in that world, and the astonishing changes that have brought us closer to the justice so many before could only dream of. And yes... there's even a word from our sponsor, because some traditions, old and new, are simply too fun to resist.
