March 16, 2016 - It’s Classical Wisdom Wednesday, presented by Classical Wisdom Weekly — bringing ancient wisdom to modern minds, every Wednesday morning before your first cup of coffee.
Let’s talk about Sparta. While that ancient civilization might be remembered for their fearsome soldiers, it was the Spartan women who kept things running while the men were away at war. These fearsome ladies might actually have been the backbone to the entire operation.
Your guide through the classical landscape is Van Bryan, Associate Editor of Classical Wisdom Weekly. You can catch Classical Wisdom Wednesday every week before your first cup of coffee, right here on the History Author Show.
