Story0
This book contains a brief but unconventional look at the Titans and Olympian gods of Greek mythology. Brief, because a thorough treatment of these legendary super beings could take thousands of hours. Unconventional, because digging for truth is far more interesting than reciting old stories which have little relevance to us today. Attempting to reveal some semblance of truth brings the stories to life. It gives them relevance to our modern world. Here, we will look at many of the more fascinating stories.

While they are still well-known, the Olympic Games of Ancient Greece are more relevant today than most people know, and the ways in which athletic sports pervade contemporary culture is comparable only to the spirit of athleticism in Hellenic Greece. Today, a large section of the media industry is devoted exclusively to sports, and in some nations sports even figures as a critical component of their identity.

Aucune nation dans l'histoire n'a laissé au monde un héritage aussi grand que celui des Grecs. Il semble à peine croyable qu'un peuple aussi dispersé, installé sur les îles et péninsules rocheuses de la mer Égée, ait pu accomplir tant de choses ; mais il a excellé dans tout ce qu'il a entrepris, qu'il s'agisse de guerre ou de politique, d'art ou d'athlétisme, de littérature ou de philosophie. Les Grecs ont donné une nouvelle définition de l'humanité. Leurs idéaux, leurs héros sont devenus les nôtres.

Story2
Over the last 2,000 years, ambitious men have dreamed of forging vast empires and attaining eternal glory in battle, but of all the conquerors who took steps toward such dreams, none were ever as successful as antiquity’s first great conqueror. Leaders of the 20th century hoped to rival Napoleon’s accomplishments, while Napoleon aimed to emulate the accomplishments of Julius Caesar. Caesar himself found inspiration in Alexander the Great (356 - 323 BCE), the Macedonian king who managed to stretch an empire from Greece to the Himalayas in Asia by the age of 30.

Story2
For the ancient Greeks, there were few divine beings more important, and more generous, to humanity than the goddess Athena. She was also called "Pallas", "Pallas Athena", and (to the Romans) "Minerva". The daughter of Zeus, Athena was famous as a virgin warrior woman who was born from her father's skull bearing a helmet, shield, and spear. Yet she was far more than simply a warrior goddess.

Unmatched in its wealth of mesmerizing tales, Greek mythology continues to spellbind humanity millenniums later, and the gods are certainly the epicenter of it all. The infamous affairs of Zeus, the wrath of Hera, the irrepressible greed of Poseidon, the notorious infidelity of Aphrodite, and the vengeance of her husband Hephaestus - the Greek gods are quite the topic of intrigue. Enriched with the most enthusing accounts, this audiobook familiarizes you with the celebrated Olympian gods. Each god is discussed at length, accompanied by stories that heighten their intriguing disposition.

There have been no shortage of great warrior societies in history, including the Romans, Mongols, Macedonians, and Vikings, the list goes on. Yet one humble city in particular, nestled in a valley near the Eurotas River in the Greek region of the Peloponnese and once ridiculed as little more than a cluster of villages inhabited by uncouth shepherds, produced the most famous warrior elite the world has ever known.

When the Spartans' famous stand at the Battle of Thermopylae ended during the Second Persian War, the Athenian fleet was forced to fall back, and Xerxes' massive Persian army marched into Greece before advancing on Athens. The Greek armies were scattered and unable to face the might of Persia, so Athens was forced to evacuate the entire population of the city to Salamis, from where the Athenians watched in horror as Xerxes' troops plundered the defenseless city, set it aflame, and razed the Acropolis.

This book contains the daily life, culture, training, battles, history, and kings of the Spartan Empire. From the birth of their city to the end, the Spartans endured a history of violence and war. Similar to their stories, the traditional Spartan warrior also lived the daily life of a soldier. From the moment they were born and if they were allowed to live, they were trained and conditioned to be some of the most efficient and lethal killing machines. Dominating the land through some of the most famous battles of all time, the Spartans were a force to be reckoned with.

Dit is deel 3 van de collegeserie Een geschiedenis van de westerse wijsbegeerte en gaat over de periode van de 3de eeuw v.C. tot de 6de eeuw n.C. Filosoof Johan Braeckman vangt dit deel aan met de behandeling van de geschiedenis van de wiskunde, meetkunde, natuurkunde en geneeskunde in de Griekse Oudheid. Hij besteedt daarbij uitgebreid aandacht aan de werken van Euclides en Archimedes en hun invloed op latere wetenschappen. Maar hij bespreekt ook de levens en werken van andere filosofen en wetenschappers uit die tijd.

¿Por qué corremos? Todo el esfuerzo y el dolor, ¿con qué fin? ¿A qué obedece este amor por la tonificación muscular, la velocidad y el sudor? Los deportistas de la Grecia clásica fueron los primeros en plantearse estas preguntas, los primeros en suspender la guerra, el trabajo o la política para disfrutar de celebraciones públicas de las proezas atléticas, como en los célebres Juegos Olímpicos. Inventaron el deporte y también fueron los primeros en comprender cómo la actividad física se relaciona con nuestro bienestar mental.
