Happy #Halloween! We're working on a full video that we hope will be out soon, but since we're going to miss the holiday itself, here's an endnote that went with last year's Halloween video on "Magic" (and was only available to Patreon supporters at the time). Enjoy!

Another magical morsel, this one about the strange medieval afterlife of Virgil and the trope of "The Power of Women" in medieval stories and art, with Aristotle & Phyllis, Judith & Holofernes, and Tomyris & Cyrus.

The original video on #Magic is here:    • Where does Magic come from?
