Episode 34- Legends & Folly: The Remarkable Story of R.M.S. Titanic (Part 1 of 2)

Life And Life Only - Un podcast de Antony Rotunno

The story of R.M.S. Titanic and its unfortunate fate seems to have everything, both good and bad, in terms of how society views itself, its apparently superior relationship to nature and people’s relationships to their fellow man. This is a historical event but it’s also a story full of drama and human interest, and one that has been subject to constant revision in the 110 years since the ship sank. Antony reads his own longform essay regarding the maiden voyage and sinking of the world's most famous ship, and there are interjections with further observations throughout. Ordinary humans of all levels of means and status fight for their lives against the slow, inevitable creep of death… I hope you enjoy the show! If so, please subscribe, like, share etc...
