Corinthiaka, July 31, 2015

Here is this Friday’s dose of Corinthiaka–the ephemeral material, news, and blogs to go online over the last two weeks. Or at least the material that my alerts captured.

Archaeology and Classics:

• One of those sweet 3D video fly-overs from Lechaion to Corinth in the Second century. Lots of inaccuracy combined with imaginative reconstruction here, but also some value. I love the view down the road from Lechaion (Georgios Terzis, “History in 3D” @DailyMotion)

• Research Gate and Academia continue to be great venues for accessing sometimes hard-to-find scholarship:
  • House and Social Space in the Middle to Late Helladic Corinthia (Siennicka)
  • Late Byzantine Coins from Corinth (Zervos)
• The most interesting find from my scholar feed: Harry Pottery and the Classical World

New Testament:

• Paul as a mega-pastor’s exemplar (Jonathan Merritt @Religion News Source)
• The Gospel according to 1 Corinthians 13, Part 1 and Part 2 (Fred Clark @Patheos)
• “Video Resources on Corinth & Corinthians” (Matthew Malcolm @cryptotheology)
• Here’s another one, with a few inaccuracies: “Paul Comes to Corinth (Acts 18:01)” (Scott Brenner, 4 Minute Youtube Video)

Modern Greece:

• Wildfire Risk in the Corinthia (To Vima)
• Music Videos of Νατάσσα Μποφίλιου from the Loutraki Music Festival (YouTube)
