Yes! You did it lol… I see in the time stamps that you have not only included the story of the Aeneid but also the impact it had on the Roman literature and culture. It's crazy that his understudy, Ovid was the one who kept the manuscript after octavian ordered him on pain of death to retrieve it, even though Virgil's last wish was to burn the manuscript because it is not complete. Ah man I am looking so forward to this 1. Thank you so much.

[@Diomedes_XXII]

I truly believe with every fibre of my being that it's a crime you do not have as many subs as... Certain types of ASMRtists. YOU SIR, ARE AN EXTRAORDINARY INDIVIDUAL WHO'S DEDICATION TO HIS CRAFT IS HUMBLING. May you get out of life everything you've ever wanted and more

He is back!! The legend is back!! And doing Roman mythology!!! Yessss. I LOVE ancient history , they are always my fav!!!!.

"There once was a dream. A dream called Rome." ✨ Nice ASMR, love the story of the Aneid

[@aceofspades6667]

I think at this point Rome had lost itself culturally in the original founding values that made them special. This story was meant rekindles those values with the then modern Romans

just what i needed to recover from my 3 days of horrible, horrible self-imposed sleep sabotage.. THANK YOU ❗️ i truly appreciate the diligence you put into every one of your videos, they have helped me rediscover my love for learning

What's a self imposed sleep sabotage?

@@tomalebine2778 basically not sleeping in favor of doing other things (going out, watching TC, etc.)

I'm just saying, you could definitely do a series of videos talking about the history and mythology of various native american groups, like the Cherokee, Incas, Aztecs...

[@nneow]

That's a great suggestion, but just to lyk, he already has videos covering the Incas, Aztecs, and Maya civilization; check out the history playlist on his channel

[@brucelawton2921]

You could definitely eat a big bowl of cheese with pepperonis and marinara and other fixins... then yell at your parents for not heating it all the way through even though you don't even live with them anymore. And they actually aren't your parents, they are just some people living in the house you just broke into by accident because you had one too many wine coolers at the open house for a house you had no actual interest in buying. Get your life together bro. This isn't normal behavior...

Wonderful, as always! I've really enjoyed all of your Rome-focused episodes. Have you read "Lavinia" by Ursula K. LeGuin? It's quite a unique take on the early Latins through the eyes of Aeneas's wife (who is barely mentioned in the Aeneid.).

I'm so sorry I am 49 seconds in and I just wanted to say that many scholars think, I'm not a scholar but I agree with these ones, that the Aeneid is not an answer to, but instead, part 3... It closes the Iliad & the Odyssey out by elevating Rome. Romans just so happened to believe that they were the descendants of the Trojans... which is also why they didn't rightly take kindly to the Greeks lol.
