Story of Spartacus, Softly Retold for Sleep | A Calm Bedtime History for Adults | SleepWise

from SleepWise: Learn Softly, Sleep Deeply · host SleepWise

A calm bedtime story for adults about Spartacus, the Thracian gladiator who led the largest slave revolt of the Roman Republic. Drift back two thousand years to ancient Italy and follow him from the gladiator school of Capua, down the green slopes of Mount Vesuvius, and across the long spine of the peninsula, all the way to a final stand in the hills of Lucania.Along the way, you'll move gently through the world of late Republican Rome, the long history of Roman slavery, and the rise of figures such as Crassus and Pompey, all told in the soothing, gently educational style that defines SleepWise.There is nothing to follow and nothing to remember, only a road to walk softly into the past. Dim the light, settle in, and let the long road from Capua carry you toward sleep.Follow SleepWise for more sleep stories about history, science, and quiet ideas.
