Dearest listeners...

You may have refreshed your podcast feeds over the last few days and noticed that - dramatic music, please - our latest episode is not there! 

Unfortunately, due to a combination of Christmas, illness and general strife, we have not managed to get the edit for this episode ready in time. We’re sorry for the wait, but we can confirm that your new episode should be materialising in your feeds on Tuesday 3rd January!

Livy's factual errors and romantic view of the Roman Republic should not dissuade us from his larger truths. It bears repeating that the classics are not read for their factual minutiae but for the way they help us think about our own age. We need to recover the allure that the classics held for nineteenth-century schoolboys like Churchill, who read them not as critics or fact checkers but for their inspiration -- and because they had to.
