What the Hellenistic Need to learn Greek history? Don't like reading a textbook? Here is the broad expanse of Greek history, from the Minoans to Philip II, set to the tune of "Hey There, Delilah." Get the lyrics and notes here: https://poor-brother.wikispaces.com/ Hello, Hellenes Your history is rather mystic So I'll sing this little song About just what the Hellenistic heroes said 'Bout all the battles where you bled Beautiful dead. On the Aegean Spread admid the archipelago Peloponnese peninsula You Greeks began there long ago, and lived Our culture to create and give, And grow olives. Chorus: Oh, it's all Greek to me. Oh, it's all Greek to me. Oh, it's all Greek to me. Oh, it's all Greek to me. Hello, Minoan men Your Minotaur could not be beat Located in the labyrinth At Knossos there in ancient Crete, until Theseus knew he had the will That beast to kill. Hello, Myceneans Who conquered the Minoan men But, later, you were conquered too By Sea People or Dorians, whose rage Crushed you and started the Dark Age, So turn the page. (Chorus) Hello, Homer, Who wrote heroic, epic poetry About the Golden Age of Greece Though you were blind, you still could be the source About a face that launched a naval force And a Trojan horse Hello, Athena, You are wise and you are mighty Your bro, Ares, is the god of war Your sister, Aphrodite, is a dove Goddess of beauty and of love Rules from above. (Chorus) Bridge I: Most of our astrology Is based on your mythology Stories that we study still today There's Pandora's curiosity Medusa's great monstrosity And Icarus who flew to far astray. Dont forget Hermes the liar Or Prometheus who stole fire And the man who hugged Antaeus to his knees, Brave Heracles. Hello, Athenians Inventors of democracy With awesome architecture You were masters of philosophy and math You even had a public bath But no paved path. Hello there, Spartans, Who fought battles without guns or tanks Made hoplites out of soldier boys And marched them in a great phalanx of men. Only the strongest lived, so then You'd always win. (Chorus) Hello, Phidippides. The herald boy who liked to run, And made it clear to Athens From the battlefield of Marathon to say Athenians had won the day So shout hooray! Here come the Persians Takin' over like Monopoly 300 Spartans stopped them At the Battle of Thermopolyae. You stayed And combed your hair under the shade. 'Till you were betrayed. (Chorus) Bridge II: Your alpha bet is pretty cool With Pi and Phi and Delta too We use so many of your words today. Poly and monotheistic Paleo and neolithic And don't forget mesopotamia. Without you we couldn't make a poem Or telephone our mom at home Or study any of the ology's Or history! There wasn't always Happy peace among you Grecians There were thirty years of conflict All among Peloponnesians, who, by Zeus, Paused only for Olympic truce Athens would lose. Hello there, Philip, You were once the king of Macedon You conquered Greece and Persia Made an empire for your son so he could share Hellenistic culture here and there And everywhere. (Chorus) Tags: greek delilah music greece history social studies hellenistic sparta athens thermopolyae marathon science |

Valor of Petra, shadows of Hellenistic Roman Empire @ Jordan PETRA, THE NEW WORLD WONDER AT JORDAN Petra (πέτρα, rock in Greek, hence the name Petros - St. Peter) , was the main city of the Nabataeans whom were influenced by Greco-Roman and egyptian cultures. On July 7, 2007, Petra was named one of New Open World Corporation's New Seven Wonders of the World. The video is acopanied by reading of T. S. Eliot's " The Waste Land" and Simon Shahin's music T.S. Eliot (18881965). The Waste Land. 1922. The Waste Land I. THE BURIAL OF THE DEAD APRIL is the cruellest month, breeding Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing Memory and desire, stirring Dull roots with spring rain. Winter kept us warm, covering Earth in forgetful snow, feeding A little life with dried tubers. Summer surprised us, coming over the Starnbergersee With a shower of rain; we stopped in the colonnade, And went on in sunlight, into the Hofgarten, And drank coffee, and talked for an hour. Bin gar keine Russin, stamm' aus Litauen, echt deutsch. And when we were children, staying at the archduke's, My cousin's, he took me out on a sled, And I was frightened. He said, Marie, Marie, hold on tight. And down we went. In the mountains, there you feel free. I read, much of the night, and go south in the winter. What are the roots that clutch, what branches grow Out of this stony rubbish? Son of man, You cannot say, or guess, for you know only A heap of broken images, where the sun beats, And the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief, And the dry stone no sound of water. Only There is shadow under this red rock, (Come in under the shadow of this red rock), And I will show you something different from either Your shadow at morning striding behind you Or your shadow at evening rising to meet you; I will show you fear in a handful of dust. Frisch weht der Wind Der Heimat zu. Mein Irisch Kind, Wo weilest du? 'You gave me hyacinths first a year ago; 'They called me the hyacinth girl.' —Yet when we came back, late, from the Hyacinth garden, Your arms full, and your hair wet, I could not Speak, and my eyes failed, I was neither Living nor dead, and I knew nothing, Looking into the heart of light, the silence. Od' und leer das Meer. Madame Sosostris, famous clairvoyante, Had a bad cold, nevertheless Is known to be the wisest woman in Europe, With a wicked pack of cards. Here, said she, Is your card, the drowned Phoenician Sailor, (Those are pearls that were his eyes. Look!) Here is Belladonna, the Lady of the Rocks, The lady of situations. Here is the man with three staves, and here the Wheel, And here is the one-eyed merchant, and this card, Which is blank, is something he carries on his back, Which I am forbidden to see. I do not find The Hanged Man. Fear death by water. I see crowds of people, walking round in a ring. Thank you. If you see dear Mrs. Equitone, Tell her I bring the horoscope myself: One must be so careful these days. Unreal City, Under the brown fog of a winter dawn, A crowd flowed over London Bridge, so many, I had not thought death had undone so many. Sighs, short and infrequent, were exhaled, And each man fixed his eyes before his feet. Flowed up the hill and down King William Street, To where Saint Mary Woolnoth kept the hours With a dead sound on the final stroke of nine. There I saw one I knew, and stopped him, crying 'Stetson! 'You who were with me in the ships at Mylae! 'That corpse you planted last year in your garden, 'Has it begun to sprout? Will it bloom this year? 'Or has the sudden frost disturbed its bed? 'Oh keep the Dog far hence, that's friend to men, 'Or with his nails he'll dig it up again! 'You! hypocrite lecteur!—mon semblable,—mon frère!' Tags: petra jordan T. S.

Robert Schmidt on Hellenistic Astrology part 1 This is the first 10 minutes of a video made in 2006 by Robert Schmidt of Project Hindsight for a conference in Russia that he was not able to attend. He is talking kind of slowly and deliberately so that the Russian translators could translate the video for the conference that the video was shown at.

Particularly nice in demonstrating why mid range laser scanning is good for stadium scanning. Only regret was we didn't have time to scan the inscriptions located in the right hand corner.

Curatorial Perspective from Carlos A. Picón, Curator in Charge, Greek and Roman Art Learn more about the galleries: http://www.metmuseum.org/Works_of_Art/installation_gr.asp The opening of the new Hellenistic, Etruscan, and Roman galleries—an entire wing housing approximately 5,300 objects in more than 30,000 square feet—completes the reconstruction and reinstallation of the permanent galleries of Greek and Roman art. The newest galleries present Hellenistic art and its legacy alongside objects from Southern Italy and Etruria, forming the background to the story of Rome from the Late Republican period and the Golden Age of Augustus's Principate to the conversion of Constantine the Great in A.D. 312. The centerpiece of the new installation is the Leon Levy and Shelby White Court, a dramatic, skylit space that links the various galleries and themes. Included are displays of the art of Magna Graecia and the world of the Etruscans, together with the stunning collection of Roman wall paintings that is unrivaled outside of Italy. The presentation of the art of the Late Hellenistic and Early Imperial periods is crowned by the newly reconstructed Cubiculum from the villa at Boscoreale near Pompeii and the Black Bedroom from Boscotrecase. In addition, on the mezzanine floor overlooking Fifth Avenue, there is a large display covering the entire cultural and chronological span of the department's rich collection.
