Episode 45: Sallust on the Moral Ruin of the Roman Republic

In this conspiratorial video, learn about the historian Sallust and his two works, The Catiline Conspiracy and The Jugurthine War -- see a great painting by Rogier Van Der Weyden, which I had intended to compare favorably to the Mona Lisa but chickened out. Hear a quote from a PhD who gives you the green-light on doing some light conspiracy theorizing. Seriously, for those of you who are hearing me, this one should really start to help it click... we're back in 64-63 B.C., but as Brian G says, the more things change, the more they stay the same.Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Godward
