This course addresses three wars fought in antiquity, each of which had - even 2,000 years and more later - a decisive effect in shaping our communal sense of who we are, not only in Europe, but throughout the European cultural diaspora, in the Americas, in Oceania, and to some degree, at least, in Asia and Africa as well - wherever, in short, Western values hold.

The three wars to be investigated here are (1) the Persian Wars, between a coalition of Greek city-states or "poleis", most notably Athens and Sparta, and the Achaemenid Persian empire, the central and decisive portion of which took place between 490 and 479 B.C.E.; (2) the later Peloponnesian War between Athens and her allies and Sparta and hers, 431-404 B.C.E.; and finally (3) the three Punic Wars between Rome and Carthage, which stretched, on and off, for well more than a century, from 264 to 146 B.C.E.

Where does The Modern Scholar rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Medium. The Great Courses presentation of the Peloponnesian War by Kenneth Harl is far more thorough and accurate.

What did you like best about this story?

The connections drawn between the 3 wars

How could the performance have been better?

More detail on the sources as well as the inaccuracies and biases of the sources (e.g.., Thucydides bias as an Athenian)

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

OK, not great, but OK

This was an awesome listen, but it’s about the divine comedy. I enjoy mr schutts voice and cadence.

Timothy Shutt is not only a great scholar, but a great reader. If you are interested at all in ancient Greek, Persian and Roman history through the yes of the wars that were fought and the characters who fought them and those who recorded them, it's a must read.

I would probably enjoy any lecture series from Prof. Shutt on a topic he was passionate about - but this is one of his best offerings. I've read a lot on the Persian and Peloponnesian Wars, and this is one of the most enjoyable romps through the tales I have ever heard. It would make a wonderful introduction to someone new to the topic!

Prof. Shutt's lectures have the spontaneity of the best college lecturers. Sometimes there are missteps but these are typical of oral performance, and much better than a highly rehearsed reading.

Great Courses has good lectures on these topics by Professors Harl and Hale too.

Excellent audio from Prof. Shutt
