I finished I Claudius a couple of days ago and John Hurt's performance as Caligula was great.

Is there a connection as to why most of the Nazi high command were Bavarians, or is it just simple coincidence? Naturally the birthplace of the movement was in Bavaria, but that doesn't necessarily mean it was therefore entirely Bavarian - as naturally, most Germans are not, and therefore at its height, Nazi Germany was mostly not Bavarian of course.

Could it be an example of a late sort of Austrian area power grab? A sort of resurgence of empires in that area previously?

How anyone can romanticize crusaders is beyond me. All they did was destabilize a region for over a century, killing thousands of civilians and their own men for virtually no gain.

What is the oldest continuous martial arts tradition? my bet would be the (Maniwa) Nen ryu, at about 600 years old. There are some older traditions but they only maintain etiquette and ceremonial archery

Only speaking of japanese TMA. Ogasawara-ryu still has its horse archery techniques, but I don't know if they are straight from the 12-13th century (and I somehow doubt it).

Maniwa Nen-ryu isn't exactly Nen-ryu though, even if it appears to be quite close and is probably only an enlarged take on Nen-ryu.

TSKSR is definitely older than Maniwa Nen-ryu anyway. If you don't consider that Maniwa Nen-ryu is what we have of Nen-ryu, that would make it the oldest continuous japanese tradition.

It's uninspired bullshit that appeals to teenagers who think Nietzsche was a nihilist.

ITT: JUST quotes

>"Continuity and change are alike illustrated in a story remembered by Peter Charanis, born on the island of Lemnos in 1908 and later a professor of Byzantine history at Rutgers University. When the island was occupied by the Greek navy [in 1912], Greek soldiers were sent to the villages and stationed themselves in the public squares. Some of us children ran to see what these Greek soldiers, these Hellenes, looked like. ‘‘What are you looking at?’’ one of them asked. ‘‘At Hellenes,’’ we replied. ‘‘Are you not Hellenes yourselves?’’ he retorted. ‘‘No, we are Romans.’Thus was the most ancient national identity in all of history finally absorbed and ended. Charanis, as we will see, eventually came to regard himself as a Hellene."

>My first course in philosophy was nothing less than a summary of the important systems of thought put forward in Western Europe during the last twenty-six hundred years. Perhaps that is a slight exaggeration--we did gloss over a few centuries in the Middle Ages. For the rest we touched upon all the historic names from Thales to Nietzsche. After about nine weeks of this bewildering transit a friend approached me with a sour look on his face. "You know," he said, "I can't make head or tail out of this business. I agree with each philosopher as we study him. But when we get to the next one, I agree with him too. Yet he generally says the other one was wrong. They can't all be right. Can they now?" I was too much puzzled with the same difficulty to help him.

As a great Canadian philosopher once told us, when you kill people, they win
