It’s here! I present you the fruit of a year-long creative project: a translation of Julian’s satirical dialogue “The Caesars” as a radio play, hosted by the Let’s Talk About Myths Baby podcast. It features an international of classicists playing ancient gods & rulers. Enjoy!
Emperor Julian Valentines for some hot & heavy Hellenism.

I’ve sat on this news long enough. Proposal & full manuscript submitted back in May passed peer review & the editorial board. Finally got the contract. I will publish my first book, “Julian Augustus: Platonism, Myth, & the Refounding of Rome,” with Oxford University Press.
My official costume this Halloween I prepared months in advance & bought the fabric for, which my partner Nikki made into what the emperor Julian wears in this 16th-century Dutch painting of him burning the bones of John the Baptist by the Master of the St. John's Altarpiece.
Next stop on the “screw Constantine” world tour, the severed head of Sylvester Stallone, aka Constantine’s son Constantius II, aka the guy who murdered most of Julian’s family.

The fiction of the Galileans has nothing divine about it. It takes advantage of the fantasy-loving, childish, and irrational part of people’s minds, and seduces them into believing that fairy tales are real. (Against the Galileans 39B)

@MetalClassicist @QuotesByJulian Hell yes. Congratulations brother! Can't wait.
Final revised manuscript will be submitted by the end of April. Not sure what the timeline will be after that, but it will be initially published as both hardcover & e-book. They'll do a run of paperbacks only if enough sell after 18 months.

I’m ngl the conflation of “sacred” or “religious” with “Christian” or “Christianity” is really tiring Things can be sacred outside of Christianity, & there are plenty of people & things that are religious & not Christian Just say Christian if that’s all you’re talking about
