The Amazons and Valkyries
Badass of the Week - Podcast autorstwa High Five Content
Author Ben Thompson and Professor of History Dr. Pat Larash compare and contrast two of the most well-known sisterhoods of heavily-armed mythological warrior women -- the Amazons of ancient Greece, and the Valkyries of Viking legend. In addition to recounting the myths, epic legends, and heroic battles that have enthralled audiences for centuries, they also look into the possible historicity of their stories, and what these badass women represent on a more significant cultural level.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
