How The Odyssey was originally shown - and why it beats IMAX

The people of the ancient world didn't have 70mm film. But they did have clay, bronze, and gold, and their physical creations depicting the Odyssey demonstrate an astounding level of creativity and imagination. These objects go far beyond simply depicting scenes of the Odyssey, creating levels of interaction with their audience that's rarely seen today. Join Curator of the Greek World, David Saunders, as he delves through the collection, guiding you through these diverse objects from the collection, and showing you how they told one of the most enduring stories of all time. You may have noticed this is NOT a Curator's Corner. This is because we are still working on the 100th episode... subscribe so you don't miss it when it releases. Chapters: 00:00 Intro 01:28 Chalcidian jar 05:40 Italian mixing bowl 11:00 Roman bronze figure - Odysseus 14:00 Bronze dish - Skylla 17:05 Black-figured skyphos - Circe 20:16 Gold ring - Penelope Please note at 21:45 there is a small spelling error in the word 'circa'.
