Nathan (along with Jake Ransohoff, episode no. 83) co-edited the volume The Invention of Byzantium in Early Modern Europe (Dumbarton Oaks 2021).

What happens when you make a nine-year-old boy king of England? It turns out, it’s a recipe for unscrupulous advisers and a king unlike any the nation has ever known. Henry III is the opposite of his cruel father: he is compassionate and pious, but he’s also indecisive and easily manipulated. When trouble brews in Plantagenet lands in France, Henry’s brother, the wily and calculating Richard, is sent to assert the Plantagenet authority. It’s a decision that Henry and his advisors will come to sorely regret. . A Sony Music Entertainment production.

Στο τέταρτο επεισόδιο αφηγούμαι ό,τι έκανε ο Κωνσταντίνος ως μόνος αυτοκράτορας από το 324 ως και τον θάνατο του. Τα γεγονότα είναι πάρα πολλά γι'αυτόν τον λόγο εστιάζω σε ότι έχει να κάνει με τον ίδιο τον Κωνσταντίνο και την οικογένεια του αφήνοντας προς το παρόν στην άκρη γεγονότα όπως η 1η Οικουμενική σύνοδος με την οποία θα ασχοληθώ σε κατοπινό επεισόδιο αφιερωμένο στην άνοδο και εξάπλωση του Χριστιανισμού. Ποιες ήταν οι πρώτες ενέργειες του Κωνσταντίνου ως μοναδικού, πλέον, αυτοκράτορα. Τι συνέβη τελικά με την δολοφονία του γιου του Κρίσπου και της συζύγου του Φαύστας; Η νέα διοικητική διαίρεση της Ρωμαικής αυτοκρατορίας που αρχίζει να θυμίζει "Βυζάντιο" Οι εκστρατείες του Κωνσταντίνου εναντίον των Γότθων και των Σαρματών και η επανεμφάνιση των Περσών στην Ανατολή. Η βάπτιση και ο θάνατος του Κωνσταντίνου. Το podcast οργανώνεται από την ομάδα Byzantine Tales: https://www.byzantinetales.com/?lang=el

<p>The Indus Valley Civilization is one of the most enigmatic, sophisticated, and compelling ancient societies. For seven centuries, it thrived in the western portions of South Asia, building enormous mud-brick cities without domination by ruling kings or elites. But then, over the course of several hundred years, the IVC slowly disintegrated. Why?</p><p><br /></p><p>Patrick's book is now available!
