Acerca de esta escucha

 Everywhere around us are echoes of the past. Those echoes define the boundaries of states and countries, how we pray and how we fight. They determine what money we spend and how we earn it at work, what language we speak and how we raise our children. From Wondery, host Patrick Wyman, PhD (“Fall Of Rome”) helps us understand our world and how it got to be the way it is.©2017 Wondery / Patrick Wyman (P)2017 Wondery / Patrick Wyman Ciencias Sociales Mundial

    The Rise of the State (Ad-free)
    Jul 20 2017
    We take for granted that central governments - sovereign states - are the ultimate political force in the world, but it wasn't always this way. Between 1350 and 1650, this form of government vanquished city-states, town leagues, and smaller lordships to dominate first Europe and then the world. In this episode of Tides of History, we explore how that happened.

I LOVE this podcast. I heard his "Fall of Rome" episode on spotify and became hooked with the show . Patrick conducts an in-depth 60 mins (varies) history of the topic at hand. His discussion is rich in details and color. He breaks down the narratives and analyses the why's in history. A must listen!

I first started listening to this podcast through the NPR One app, and is definitely my favorite history podcast.

Patrick's theatrical yet objectively factual style of presenting history is truly pleasing on the ears, something not true of most written/read history. His composite characters, while non-real, are not quite fiction, but a clever portal into the everyday lives of everyday people. It allows for the exploration of the set and setting of history at a much finer scale than big-man history.

There is an argument to be made that big-man history is similarly non-real. Yes, the characters technically existed, but are always shaped from the perspective of the historian, and as such, are at best an informed fiction. Because the largest figures in history are often tied to cultural identity, we should not be surprised that these informed fictions are inherently biased.

Patrick's composite characters, while never-existent, lack the celebrity that tarnishes the historical personas of big men, and as such are arguably less biased. They are a clever tool for the historian to explore the nuanced fabric of society -- a personification of society as it existed, integrated from the best understanding history has to offer. In this way they are even bigger than big men.
