Family Proclamations: “Roamin' Masculinity,” with Mike Pope

What does it mean to be a man? Depends on who you ask. Depends on *when* you ask, because masculinity has always been a moving target. In this episode we travel back to ancient Rome, where manly men loved war, violence, and sexual conquest. Professor Mike Pope says this history has powerful relevance for us today. We're talking about his book, Lucretius and the End of Masculinity.
