Dear Classical Wisdom Reader,
It’s a story of sacrifice, and facing down death for a greater good…
But not what necessarily what you’re thinking of on Easter Sunday!
Thermopylae is famous for being where the last stand of the 300 Spartans took place, one of the most famous events of the ancient world.
It’s a story with an immense legacy, one which has inspired multiple big-screen epics, and been infused into our culture.
Yet there’s MUCH more to the history of Thermopylae than this one momentous event.
Join us for our next LIVE webinar, where Anya will be joined by Dr. Michael Livingston and Myke Cole to discuss their recently released book "The Killing Ground: A Biography of Thermopylae".
Discover a history of dozens of battles on this famed site, stretching from the Classical era to World War II.
That’s on Thursday, April 4th at 5pm EST. You can register for that HERE!
Can’t join us live? Don’t worry! Everyone who registers will receive a recording afterwards.
Now, check out the week’s resources just below, including a look at early Christian poetry.
Plus, for our Members, a podcast interview with Robin Waterfield, author of what is astonishingly the first ever book-length biography of Plato in English.

That’s it for this week!
