Brecht's Tradition
Originally published in 1967. Literary scholars often acknowledge that Brecht borrowed from a variety of traditions, including Goethe, Schiller, expressionists, naturalists, and realists, all of whom affected his work.

On one hand, each culture’s cuisine is part of society, and gastronomy can influence the way we perceive food and society.

Chapter Democracy under the kothornos: Thucydides and Xenophon on Theramenes
We analyze the political actions of Theramenes as described by Thucydides (during the coup of 411 BCE) and Xenophon (under the Thirty, 404-403 BCE) to map the features that converged to make him a paradigmatic character in the ancient Greek political imaginary.
