DDickey 1 Report post Posted January 5, 2008 Moderators: I wasn't sure were to put this post, so feel free to move it to the appropriate forum. The Teaching Company is having a sale on a lot of their lectures until the end of January. I've been thinking about scooping their History of Ancient Rome while it's still on sale. Any thoughts? Has anyone out there purchased/listened to these? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The lectures by Garrett Fagan were excellent. He's a really marvellous teacher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DDickey 1 Report post Posted January 6, 2008 Thanks a lot. I took the plunge and ordered it. I'm also eyeballing a few of the lectures on Christianity by Bart D. Ehrman. I'm a huge fan of all of his books and would love to hear his lectures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Klingan 2 Report post Posted January 6, 2008 I'm through about 30 of the lectures on the history of ancient Rome. They are absolutely great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DDickey 1 Report post Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) I've been listening to the History of Ancient Rome, and, man, I am not disappointed. It's pretty spectacular. I also order the lectures on the historical Jesus by Prof. Bart D. Ehrman and those, too, are pretty amazing. I'll definitely be ordering more lectures before this sale is over. I already have two or three that I'm eyeballing. I'd love to have the one on the history of the United States, which is a whopping eighty four lectures, but, even with the sale, it's still well over a hundred dollars.
