    Mania for Subjugation III

    Attacking the largest empire the world had ever seen is a huge endeavor at any age, but try doing it at 21. Alexander, fusing the qualities of a Napoleon with a gladiator, aims for immortality. The Persians are just in his way.

    C6 - Iluminismul

    În acest episod din Istoria Complementară a României, vorbesc despre curentul Iluminist. Începând de la primele zbateri ale metodei științifice, prin filosofie, matematică, istorie, antropologie, economie, politică și alte noi discipline, Iluminismul stă la baza societății moderne. Și dacă nu mă credeți, ascultați episodul și apoi uitați-vă în jur. În orice aspect al vieții voastre de zi cu zi, veți găsi cel puțin un element al Iluminismului. Fie că deschideți televizorul și se discută despre politică, sau vă uitați pur și simplu în portofel, fie că ați "chiulit" de la ultima duminică la biserică sau ați văzut o dramă cu avocați din Statele Unite pe Netflix... undeva, pe undeva, vă afectează iluminiștii. La 6 luni după încheierea podcastului "Istoria României", am decis să public episoadele seriei complementare, disponibile inițial doar pe Patreon. Acesta este al treilea episod al seriei, înregistrat inițial în aprilie 2022. Capitolele acestui episod, pentru platformele care nu suportă funcționalitatea în mod direct: 1. Introducere: 0:00 -- ce e un curent filosofic și de ce oamenii tind să gândească la fel 2. Recapitulare grosieră a evenimentelor de până acum: 3:37 -- precursorii Iluminismului, cum a schimbat Renașterea arta, primele idei centrate pe individ 3. Trei personaje ale secolului al XVI-lea: 9:47 -- Giordano Bruno (o legendă demontată a științei), Galileo Galilei și Francis Bacon (începuturile metodei științifice, cum distingem adevărul de coincidență?) 4. Ce e un “Iluminism”? 17:59 -- câteva definiții 5. René Descartes 21:14 -- tatăl filosofiei moderne, de la o viață destrăbălată la mare reformator al filosofiei, "Discursul" 6. Cartezieni și anti-cartezieni 29:19 -- Hobbes, Locke, Pascal, Malebranche și opinii pro/contra filosofiei lui Descartes. Ideile despre intelect, materie, empirism, libertate și societate, rațiune. Pariul lui Pascal. 7. Baruch Spinoza 37:20 -- Biblia și știința separate, visul introvertiților și schimbarea de mentalitate față de "cei diferiți". Leibniz și Berkeley (băgați la pachet pe capitolul lui Spinoza). 8. Noua istorie și noua economie 45:02 -- David Hume și prima lucrare de istorie devenită best-seller și carte de căpătâi. Sentimentul anti-religios: Gibbon și "Istoria Declinului și a prăbușirii Imperiului Roman". Istoria alternativă: istoria științelor, a literaturii. Nu mai există "bine" și nici "rău". Economia lui Adam Smith: "Avuția națiunilor" și fundamentele pieței libere. Excesul și munca, utilitatea, competiția, monopolul. 9. “Generația de Aur” a Iluminismului francez 53:47 -- Pierre Bayle. Montesquieu: spiritul legilor, fundamentele separării puterilor în stat, aportul personal în istorie, suprimarea "stărilor" medievale, fondarea antropologiei, studiul climei ca factor în dezvoltarea societății. Sclavia. Voltaire: deghizarea filosofiei sub formă literară. "Inventarea" lui Dumnezeu. 10. Rebelul 1:03:00 -- Jean-Jacques Rousseau: viața contrară normelor, certurile cu Voltaire, certurile cu toată lumea, "Rousseau cel iresponsabil" 11. Iluminismul german 1:06:21 -- Wolff. Kant: rigurozitatea, împotriva existenței lui Dumnezeu, sistemul "rațiunii pure", pacea perpetuă, binele din convingere, teoriile rasiste și "ascunderea" lor 12. Iluminismul politic 1:12:44 - starea naturală a omului: bună sau rea? instituțiile: bune sau rele? modelul contractului social, nesupunerea civică, datoriile și obligațiile unui cetățean, democrația reprezentativă, garanțiile sociale, fără drept divin pentru suverani, proprietatea privată, separarea bisericii de stat, acordul tacit pentru a trăi în societate, sistemul "zeilor" lui Rousseau, "despotul luminat" 13. Pe cine am uitat? 1:27:31 -- mențiuni, concluzii, aplicabilitate Support the show

    The Crown Jewels

    Short History Of... is taking a short break over the Christmas period. New episodes will continue from the 5th of January. Until then, we hope you enjoy this repeat episode! Happy Christmas from the Short History Of... team.  The British Crown Jewels is a priceless collection of items gathered over eight turbulent centuries. Consisting of 100 objects decorated with 23,000 gemstones, it’s held at the Tower of London, protected by guards and high-tech security. But why did one thief put the crown jewels down his trousers? Which king managed to lose his own crown? And why is one diamond so controversial that it is not invited to the coronation of King Charles III? This is a Short History Of... The Crown Jewels. Written by Jo Furniss. With thanks to Anna Keay, author and former curator at the Tower of London. Get every episode of Short History Of… a week early with Noiser+.

    KK #61 (LIVE) – Méltán kihalt sportok

    Ez most megint egy olyan adás lesz, ami miatt elnézést kell kérnünk azoktól, akik vezetés, sport vagy házimunka közben hallgatják. Így is bőven élvezhető persze, de teljes élményt az ad, ha hallgatás közben van lehetőség pár kép megnézegetésére (esetleg egy videó megtekintésére a végén). Jó, a legteljesebb élményt az a 175 ember élvezhette, aki november 14-én összehozta az Ingában a teltházat és megnézte az adás felvételét, ez ugyanis most egy KK Live (szám szerint a harmadik, de nehogy már egy újabb nyúlványt növesszünk, jó lesz ez sima KK #61-nek is). A hopmester ezúttal Grath volt, aki parádés fordulatokkal mesélt nekünk olyan sportokról, amik már kihaltak, és okkal haltak ki. Mi a közös a repülésben és a golfban? Mit ér az angolna, ha nem elég szappanos? Tényleg, de most őszintén, tényleg akkora gond, ha a hotdogod kolbászát trágyából rakott tűzön sütik meg? Ez csak néhány enyhébb az epizód által felvetett kérdések közül. Aki nem tudott eljönni, ne szomorkodjon, márciusban tervezünk újabb Live-ot, nagyobb helyszínen, időben szólunk róla majd. És akkor íme, az adáshoz tartozó képgaléria és a záró videó linkje.

    The Ice Age

    Think of the Ice Age and tales of ferocious sabre-toothed tigers and giant megafauna likely spring to mind - but what do we know about prehistoric human culture 25,000 years ago and how people survived a perilous landscape of marauding Woolly Mammoths, bitterly cold temperatures and primitive Stone Age tools?  Tristan Hughes is joined by Cody Cassidy to look at how early cultures adapted to the extremes of the Last Glacial Period. Looking at the rapidly changing landscape, the cause of the big freeze and prehistoric hunting methods - do you have what it takes to survive the Ice Age?  This episode was first released in October 2023.

    A második világháború mindent átfogó ismerete még az erre specializálódott történészeknek sem kis falat, de ebben a duplaadásban arra teszünk kísérletet, hogy a filmbeillően izgalmas, közben viszont könyörtelenül véres és megrázó hat éves történelmi esémény valós és potenciális fordulópontjait megismerjük.
