Once Again Love That Loosener of Limbs Bittersweet and Inescapable Crawling Thing Seizes Me
Sweetbitter | the Untold History of Pirates
An investigative history podcast with a focus on queer & women's history. Each flavor, we explore a different corner of history, using literary works or historical figures every bit a starting bespeak to discuss a broader story of erasure of people with marginalized identities.
In our 2nd season, we bring y'all a high-seas run a risk full of surprises as we uncover the history of women and queer pirates. Gay love and even wedlock were more than common in the 17th-century world of pirates than nosotros might expect, and history is full of cross-dressing, swashbuckling pirates who broke gender norms and created their own queer civilisation. Fifty-fifty Johnny Depp, in the Pirates of the Caribbean area series, intentionally played Captain Jack Sparrow every bit a gay human. We explore the stories behind these radical rebels and discuss why these stories have been erased for hundreds of years.
Flavor 1 delves into the truth and controversy surrounding Sappho; her life, the Isle of Lesbos and her relevance today.
Produced in partnership with 3SM.

To me information technology seems that man has the fortune
of gods, whoever sits beside you
and shut, who listens to you
sweetly speaking
and laughing temptingly. My centre
flutters in my breast whenever
I quickly glance at you –
I can say nothing,
my natural language is broken. A fragile fire
runs under my skin, my optics
see nix, my ears roar,
cold sweat
rushes down me, trembling seizes me,
I am greener than grass.
To myself I seem
needing but picayune to die.
Yet all must be endured, since . . .

Come to me from Krete to this holy temple,
here to your sweet apple grove,
altars smoking with
frankincense.
Cold water ripples through apple branches,
the whole identify adumbral in roses,
from the murmuring leaves
deep sleep descends.
Where horses graze, the meadow blooms
bound flowers in the winds
breathe softly . . .
*
Hither, Aphrodite, after gathering . . .
pour into cups nectar
lavishly mingled
with joys.

You, children, be zealous for the cute gifts of the violetlapped Muses
and for the articulate songloving lyre.
But my skin in one case soft is at present taken past quondam age,
my pilus turns white from blackness.
And my heart is weighed down and my knees do not elevator,
that once were calorie-free to trip the light fantastic as fawns.
I groan for this. But what can I do?
A human beingness without sometime age is not a possibility.
There is the story of Tithonos, loved by Dawn with her artillery of roses
and she carried him off to the ends of the earth
when he was beautiful and immature. Withal was he gripped
by white old historic period. He still has his deathless wife.

On the throne of many hues, Immortal Aphrodite,
kid of Zeus, weaving wiles: I beg y'all,
do non pause my spirit, O Queen,
with hurting or sorrow
simply come--if ever before from far away
y'all heard my voice and listened,
and leaving your father's
aureate home you lot came,
your chariot yoked with lovely sparrows
drawing you lot quickly over the nighttime world
in a whirling cloud of wings down
the sky through midair,
suddenly here. Blest One, with a grinning
on your deathless face, you ask
what have I suffered once again
and why do I call once again
and what in my wild heart do I most wish
would happen: "Once again who must I
persuade to turn dorsum to your honey?
Sappho, who wrongs y'all?
If now she flees, presently she'll chase.
If rejecting gifts, and so she'll requite.
If not loving, before long she'll honey
even against her will."
Come to me now--release me from these
troubles, everything my heart longs
to take fulfilled, fulfill, and you
be my marry.
