David H. J. Larmour (Ph.D. in Classical Philology, Univ. of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) is a Paul Whitfield Horn Professor of Classics at Texas Tech and Honorary Professor of Classics, Ancient History & Archaeology at the University of Birmingham. He has particular interests in Greek athletics & the Roman arena, Greek and Roman satire, lyric poetry, narrative theory, and comparative literature. Although grounded in classical philology, his research takes in display and representation of the body in text and space; the ideological underpinnings of competition, exile, memory and nostalgia; and the re-imagining of the classical past in the modern era. He also looks at how the physical borders of empires, and their accompanying mental categories, shape our understanding of the past, who we think we are, and whither we are headed.

We talk about his pursuit of a Phd in Poetry and a whole hour's worth of literary knowledge that Cory and I are too dumb to understand. We had a great time learning about a path not taken (That's Robert Frost. He is also a poet from what I hear. See? I guess we aren't that ignorant).

Browning Shane & Cory 02:02:54 In this first episode of the Skipping Church Book Club we discuss 'Ordinary Men' by Christopher R. Browning. This piece of historical non fiction recounts the role of the 101st Reserve Police Battalion in Nazi Germany in the final solution in Poland and the Eastern Front. The author goes beyond a simple recounting of the atrocities committed by the battalion, examining the dark side of human nature and what could drive this group of unremarkable and average men to perpetrate some of the worst crimes against humanity in history.
