In reply to Kaiden Fox. Yes! I finished recording it last month. So it should be available on Audible in a month or two.

In reply to Richard Carrier. Any updates on The Scientist as an audiobook? I'm fiending for it.

In reply to Richard Martin. Yes. There is no distinct evidence of it being taught in Latin. The information was available in Latin. But schools and teachers as far as I can tell expected students to study it in Greek. So, see the book's index for "bilingualism" for what this meant in practice.

Awesome! I have been waiting for this. I have thoroughly enjoyed all of your books. With such detailed material, I find it much easier to absorb with an audio book.

One other thing: Was the encyclios paidea taught in Greek?

Hi Richard,

This post came just in time. I had a long drive ahead of me yesterday so I bought the audio book version, despite already having the hard copy. It was a great drive and I find this a very good book.

I’m looking forward to The Scientist in the Roman Empire. When can we expect that next instalment?

Sincerely,

Richard Martin
