EP 117: "From Ancient Writings to Sacred Texts" by S.A. Nigosian: Myth, Ancient Texts, and Religion

<p>Watch on <a href="https://youtu.be/1slGVlAiiwo">YouTube</a>.</p> <p>In this episode, @tete.depunk and I (@fortunusgames) talk about a book we've both read, "From Ancient Writings to Sacred Texts" by S.A. Nigosian. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>We covered the following:&nbsp;</strong></p> <p>-How the book fleshed out Biblical texts and other Near Eastern ancient texts and mythos.&nbsp;</p> <p>-How I first came across the book in university &nbsp;</p> <p>-How @tete.depunk reacted to the book and how it presented a different worldview of Christianity than the version she had grown up with in a strict Protestant Christian (Charismatic) household. &nbsp;</p> <p>-How @tete.depunk’s Andrei (protagonist of her novel, “70 Fierce Years”) loves him some Near Eastern mythology, such as The Epic of Gilgamesh. &nbsp;</p> <p>We were soon joined by our friends, @helevorn_bor and @ryzacobalion, who appeared in the chat section with their awesome comments and questions! &nbsp;</p> <p>Check out the Google preview of the book here: <a href="https://www.google.ca/books/edition/From_Ancient_Writings_to_Sacred_Texts/gpAAKpmMHYoC?hl=en&amp;gbpv=0 ">https://www.google.ca/books/edition/From_Ancient_Writings_to_Sacred_Texts/gpAAKpmMHYoC?hl=en&amp;gbpv=0&nbsp;</a></p> <p>Buy @helevorn_bor's "Lucky Wolf" novel here: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CRez6x8l9lr/">https://www.instagram.com/p/CRez6x8l9lr/</a></p> --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/fortunus-games/message
