RIHC: Crossroads Of Civilisations - Where East Meets West

The Rest Is History Podcast
Was the Cold War the ultimate East-West confrontation, or was it the Persian Wars? Are concepts of freedom and autocracy central to the antipathy between East and West? What did Tom and Dominic make of their time in Sarajevo? Why is the city such a cultural melting pot? What happened during the Siege of Sarajevo? And, what role did Christianity play in ideas of East vs. West in the Roman Empire? Join Tom and Dominic for this month’s livestream, as they discuss some of the world's most totemic meeting points; the historical places where religions and cultures have most virulently melded and clashed.
