10. Achilles and Patroclus
Manage episode 290658674 series 2870496
Every time Domenica says she's doing a "quick summary" of anything, DON'T BELIEVE HER. That's how you get Queer Qulture's longest episode yet - episode 10, where your two hosts do the ol' switcheroo so it's Double Dimi back to back! Today she presents the relationship between Achilles and Patroclus, the doomed lovers from Homer's epic The Iliad (now known as Troy Story). It's usually not questioned that they were together, but rather the discourse - starting in the 5th century BCE - revolves around who was the top and who was the bottom. Join us while we check out the facts, from Homer's own lines to fictional iterations, and please bear with us while Domenica struggles to pronounce the names, like seriously she should start practicing beforehand.
