I really love when historians discuss the daily life, economy, and traditions of a specific era.
-
I am delighted to learn that Ancient Romans brought little tailgating grills to the Colosseum. That makes my day.
-
shocking lack of comments about the fact that ancient romans’ favourite position was cowgirl
-
She has so much PASSION for the subject it’s contagious!
-
Huh I was just thinking about the roman empire. What a coincidence.
-
So a vomitorium basically vomits people out of a stadium really quick? Still a fitting name.
-
We need a ancient Greek, Aztec and Mayan experts next please!! This was soooo interesting
-
i don't think when someone asks who was the best roman emperor they're asking about how nice of a person they were i believe they're masking how effective an emperor they were for the prosperity of Rome As a whole.
-
Could you do a video about ancient Egypt next? This was extremely interesting and informative!
-
She's so articulate in her explanations. I love how she explains the life expectancy and women's rights in terms of how progressive it was for the time, but how it also had its shortcomings.
-
Fun fact: we DO still call them Vomitoriums in theatre! (Though we do most often just say “vom” for short)
-
Great video! I've been studying Roman history for school. This video is very useful for filling in the gaps that most books and lectures don't have time to talk about
-
She gives so much detailed into without it stretching forever. Love her energy and how she explains things
-
I would love to take a class with this prof. Her energy makes the subject so interesting
-
This was an absolutely amazing video. I love that we’ve broadened our context of learning to focus on day-to-day lives, context, and culture, and not jist painting in broad strokes and listing dates and lineages of rulers.
-
Part 2 please!!! This woman is great at explaining this topic and is super knowledgable
-
I know she’s a professor and literally an expert on Rome but wow she is incredibly intelligent. The depth to which she was able to answer these finite questions is remarkable. What a brilliant scholar, respect to you Dr. Ginsburg
-
This was very good! I’d love to see one about ancient Aztecs, specifically on the subject of Tenochtitlan.
-
Wow, these are usually fun but Dr. Ginsberg is particularly great. She's so engaging and her enthusiasm for the subject is really infectious.
-
I would take all of her classes in a heartbeat. I miss studying history sooooo much and I WISH more professors were like her!!!! Amazing energy
