024 - The Theater of Dionysus and the Peloponnesian War

Wonders of the World - A podcast by Caroline Vahrenkamp - Thursdays

All the world is a stage, and the first stage was in Athens, the birthplace of tragedy.  With Darby Vickers from the History of Greece podcast, we visit with the great playwrights, as Athens hits a great turning point: the Peloponnesian War. That doesn't go well, and who's to blame?  Surely not a homely old teacher in the Agora?  Indeed.  But his student will have the last laugh. All this plus skordalia!
