from Historiansplaining: A historian tells you why everything you know is wrong · host Samuel Biagetti, PhD
A sample from a lecture on Patreon for patrons only for one year: We trace the strugles of Venice, through conquest, revolution, and depression, to fashion a place for itself in the modern world, to channel or keep at bay the new floods -- of rising seas, of diseased canals, and of tourist hordes -- and most of all, to somehow square the circle of preservation and modernity.
