Episode 45: Georgios on the novel-like stories of Thucydides

Last month, we heard from academic Joel Schlosser on Herodotus, inspired by my own blog on some excerpts.

Now, a nice Redditor, Georgios from Greece who's read all of Thucydides agreed to discuss the ancient historian with me. We wander close to Thucydides and far afield, but most of all his enthusiasm, enjoyment and sense of humor about the principal characters and events from these old battles and political intrigues made our chat sparkle.
