<p>Dear Classical Wisdom Reader,</p><p>What does it mean to call a group of ancient thinkers “essential”?</p><p>Any effort to answer that question inevitably raises others...who is included? Who is left out? And how can such a vast and influential culture ever be meaningfully distilled?</p><p>Indeed, it is such a daunting quest, many don’t even attempt it.</p><p>And yet, we dared do just that...</p><p>After all, one has to start somewhere... and so with that mission in mind, we built <em>The Essential Greeks </em>video course.</p><div><figure><a href="https://classicalwisdomcourses.podia.com/the-essential-greeks"></a><div><a href="https://classicalwisdomcourses.podia.com/the-essential-greeks"></a><source type="image/webp"><a href="https://classicalwisdomcourses.podia.com/the-essential-greeks"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/%24s_!NHmg!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Facab29f6-33f4-479f-ab2a-4971d03511b1_900x630.png" width="900" height="630" alt=""></a></source><a href="https://classicalwisdomcourses.podia.com/the-essential-greeks"></a><div><a href="https://classicalwisdomcourses.podia.com/the-essential-greeks"></a><div><a href="https://classicalwisdomcourses.podia.com/the-essential-greeks"></a></div><a href="https://classicalwisdomcourses.podia.com/the-essential-greeks"></a></div><a href="https://classicalwisdomcourses.podia.com/the-essential-greeks"></a></div><a href="https://classicalwisdomcourses.podia.com/the-essential-greeks"></a></figure></div><p>Rather than attempting an exhaustive catalogue, this 10-part course offers a carefully curated introduction to the key figures of the ancient world, those figures who have most profoundly shaped Western civilization.</p><p>Spanning from Homer to Aristotle, the <em>Essential Greeks</em> provides a structured yet accessible pathway into the literature, philosophy, and history of ancient Greece.</p><p>The selections are guided not only by importance, but by their power to engage and inspire, by their subsequent impact. Each module is designed as an entry point, an invitation to explore further, to inspire the mind and awaken our curiosity.</p><p>The result is a course that balances depth with approachability, offering both a solid foundation and a sense of discovery, perfect for new comers and long time lovers of Classics alike.</p><p>Beginning on <strong>May 5th, 2026</strong>, the <em>Essential Greeks</em> course brings 10 foundational figures to life through a dynamic and interactive learning experience, including:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Expert-led video lessons</strong> that illuminate key ideas and contexts</p></li><li><p><strong>Quizzes</strong> to reinforce understanding and retention</p></li><li><p><strong>Original texts</strong> for direct engagement with ancient voices</p></li><li><p><strong>Live webinars and discussions</strong> to foster deeper insight and conversation</p></li></ul><p>A <strong>live welcome webinar</strong> will mark the start of the course, offering an opportunity to engage from the very beginning.

Previous students have raved about The Essential Greeks! Indeed, it’s better to hear it directly from them:</strong> </p><blockquote><p>I want to thank you and Joel as well as everyone else for putting together such a great curriculum. As a total novice, I totally enjoyed the experience and was able to increase my knowledge. The course also piqued my interest to continue learning about the classics.</p><p>I have the book “The Essential Classics” which I purchased years ago but could never get through it. I now have the incentive to give it another go.</p><p>Thank you again. I had a lot of fun.</p><p>Rick</p></blockquote><p><a href="https://classicalwisdomcourses.podia.com/"><span>Learn More</span></a></p><blockquote><p>I am delighted with the high standards of the material. I’m 80 and am overjoyed there are academics who have a passion to enable people like me to study and enter the fascinating world of our intellectual, political and cultural origins. (And at a reasonable price that even someone on a restricted budget can afford.) Thank you may your journey continue. Cheers!!!</p><p>James WW</p></blockquote><p><a href="https://classicalwisdomcourses.podia.com/"><span>The Essential Greeks</span></a></p><p></p><blockquote><p>Words can hardly express the love I have for your Course. I’ve been through it a few times and just can’t get enough of it. I will listen over and over so that it can go deeper and deeper within me.</p><p>The short bits of videos made this so easy and appetizing. If I had a little time to “kill”, I could make the time LIVE with a short video packed with learning. Loved every minute!</p><p>Linda C</p></blockquote><p><a href="https://classicalwisdomcourses.podia.com/the-essential-greeks"><span>Begin Today...</span></a></p><p></p>
