The Man who Blew Up Troy: Heinrich Schliemann

from Villains and Virgins History Podcast · host Eva Schubert

The story of Troy has resounded across millennia: the beauty of Helen, the nobility of Hector, and the feats of Achilles have become legend. One man set out to prove that this story was not just legend, it was history. His name was Heinrich Schliemann, and he is an incredibly controversial and deeply eccentric character. He was the man who pursued the history of Troy, and also plundered it. Was he a visionary or a villain? You decide.
