Om avsnittet
Rather than a relic of the past, Mary Beard sees the classical world as a powerful tool for understanding the present.
It's an idea she has explored in over twenty books on ancient history and numerous documentaries on the BBC and elsewhere, all of which have made her Britain’s best known classicist.
She joins culture editor Tanjil Rashid in the studio.
