Beyond The Breakers is a podcast about shipwrecks, loss, and lessons learned from maritime disasters. 

«Прошедшее время» — подкаст об истории России и ее соседей. Здесь мы обсуждаем, как по-разному можно смотреть на события, про которые нам, казалось бы, все понятно с детства, и выясняем, что эти точки зрения значат для нашего настоящего и будущего. Ведущие — журналист «Медузы» Дмитрий Карцев и учитель истории Сергей Фокин.

Ideas matter. They cross borders; they are cosmopolitan by their nature. Intellectual history is a history of intertwining conversations, a history of posing questions not easily—or ever—answered. HIST 271 is a survey of modern European intellectual history, sketching a narrative arc from the late 18th century transition to modernity through the late 20th century transition to post-modernity. (Modernity is largely about replacing God. Postmodernity begins when we give up on replacing God.) With Marci Shore, Associate Professor of History.

Welcome to World Herstory where we discover the incredible lives and legacies of lesser-known women in history. Throughout time and across the globe, there have been countless women who have changed the world through their fierce determination and indomitable spirit, yet are often overlooked or ignored. That’s where we come in. 

In each episode, we’ll explore the stories of specific women who challenged societal norms, broke barriers, and made a lasting impact on the world. From ancient times to modern history, we’ll dive into the lives of these women whose remarkable contributions have been buried by the sands of time. They come from all corners of the world and represent a wide range of backgrounds, cultures, and experiences. We’ll discuss the obstacles they overcame, shining a light on their power, resiliency, and sheer badassery.

But World Herstory isn’t just about telling the stories of individual women. We’ll also dispute the roles of women in history and the impact they’ve made on society as a whole; examine the ways in which women have been marginalized and oppressed; celebrate the progress that has been made, and acknowledge the work that still needs to be done. We’ll provide historical context and offer insight into the broader cultural, political, and social forces at play during the time periods we explore.

And while we’ll focus primarily on women, we’ll also review the intersections of gender, race, class, and sexuality that have shaped the experiences of women throughout history. 

Whether you’re a history buff, or simply interested in the untold stories of extraordinary women, subscribe to World Herstory and join the movement to give these women the recognition they deserve.
