What utter nonsense from this guy, “Oldest city in the world.” Ukraine never existed in prehistoric times, so all roads to Europe do not lead through Ukraine. Snyder is just a pure propagandist, nothing more, just like Nikita Khrushchev, who also had a preoccupation with Ukraine. What does The Lord of the Rings have to do with History as it is just a made-up story, nothing more? Snyder is just spinning stories into History, just like Homer's fables, which I must state are just stories. This guy can spin a story out of nothing, but history is about facts, not stories! He will next say that Helen of Troy came from Ukraine, and now Wonder Woman came from Ukraine. This guy has no credibility and is paid by Ukraine to propagate this nonsense.
Beautiful talk, Prf Snyder. Thank you so much! Very cool and interesting details so skillfully combined to create a unique picture.
I hope russians did not hear about Neblivka to claim it, as always
It is so surprising to hear that a famous American professor didn't know about Indo-European languages until recently... I learned about it when I was still at (Ukrainian) school... The same was with the Amazons; they are mentioned in Herodotus's Histories, Book IV: Melpomene, along with Sarmatian women who couldn't marry before they had killed their first (male) enemy.
I call conflict of interest because this time around his talk distinctively feels like a weaponizing of culture. Don't write poetry in the trenches. Don't romanticize. Keep your mind and view clear in the here and now.
A revolution is one spin around.
What an absolute gem Prof Snyder is. Single handedly raising the Ukrainian history up to the highest heights and brandishing it as a shield against the lies of Putin! Слава Україні 🇺🇦
Thanka for uploading this super interesting lecture. I could listen to him for many more hours ❤️🇺🇦🇪🇺🇺🇦❤️.
Its obviouse world oldest religion Hinudism 6000 years......they have female gods. Just 5000 years before greeks hahaha
Small men with weird pelvises? Real archaeologists believed that for decades?
1939 to 2022 just over the 80 year cycle. It might just be possible to break out out of this cycle! If we make it through intact in the next 5 to 7 years, I think a great awakening await us.
As a Polish and American citizen, thank you Timothy, for representing such compelling, and thought through, American voice on the world stage!
He is an amazing man. Thank you
Snyder's Talk starts at 14:30 or so... looonnnnngggggg frkn intro, lol.
Okraina, borderland. ukraine is a province of Russia and thats how it will be ! suck on it
They don’t even understand that this orcs-elves narrative reveals their not-zee essence, lol.
Wow, what was that? Just mind blowing! Thanks Timothy
In French, "hôte" can be either a male guest or the man of the house.
There's also The Niebelung's Ring.
so the take away form Lord of the Ring for the war in Ukraine is that if Frodo had had one of the magic eagles earlier the whole story would have been over quickly. No walking around and fighting all the Orcs just fly with the eagle to the Volcano and drop the ring, end of Sauron in his bunker. Airpower matters
Behold the intellectual level of NATOstan.
Keep your hands off the mics!
The man knows his shit, and that’s refreshing.
❤
Professor Snyder has his own history that nobody else knows about. How clever. How progressive.
Everything he mentioned here is in the books, available to anyone interested. What's different is that these subjects are never discussed for a number of complex reasons.
Great
WOW
Civilisations ont commencé en Ukraine Cythiens Amazons montre la supériorité de femmes
Tous sont binding avec Odin russes sont orcs (Beowulf ) Kyiv Rus 988 nous savons Ukraine était fondé avant muscovie
Euromaidan
Euromaidan!
Thank you. Both Scythians and Sarmations which Wonderwoman is supposedly from are all Iranian tribes that used to live in Ukraine and southern Russia.
Timothy Snyder brings light in these dark hours for the Europe
Дякую за відображення реальності, якої так не вистачає❤
Thank you for showing that the modern came from myths.
41:14 respect to Professor Timothy Snyder here for bringing in the mythos of *_Wonder Woman_* . Her endurance as a heroic character and a pop culture icon is a bit amazing - when viewing her true "Golden Age" (of comic books) origin. *_WW_* is indeed a "radical" characterization of a truly "modern woman" of any era. "...with all the strength of _Superman_ plus all the allure of a 'good' and beautiful woman", William Moulton Marston, his wife Elizabeth Marston, and their "life partner" Olive Byrne brought forward a new type of "super heroine". The Marston's were psychologists and were seeking a way to show the power of "love" as a force for good in the world, and as a "strength" of women (though his work would also lead to the "lie detector" device, oddly). I sincerely encourage anyone that found this part of Prof Snyder's lecture of interest to at minimum read the Wikipedia articles on *_Wonder Woman_* and the Marstons, it will be worth the time. 😊
Ukrainian youth often called Ukrainian "elvish" even before the full-scale invasion, so there's tolken-ish aspect there too.
Such a fresh angle on Ukraine’s importance for Europe and the Western civilisation. Prof Snyder is a real tour de force . 🇺🇦🤜🤛 #WhateverVictoryTakes #StandWithUkraine
much respect for Prof Snyder
What a wonderful speech!! TY ❤️
America put a hold on Ukraine that forced Ukraineans to fight against their own Russian brothers..
I hope you get paid to make these comments because I like the idea you are cheating your employer.
Unfortunately, Professor Timothy Snyder has officially become Ебанутым. We lost him!
predictable outcome of cooperation with ukr not-zees
Wow, thank you, Timothy Snyder! You've opened my world & heart.
Timothy Snyder should read books meant for people ages 12 and up, and maybe then he might understand where guys like John Mearsheimer are coming from. Although, (from the intellectual perspective of Wonder Woman comic books), his take on the war in Ukraine might makes a lot of sense.
Mearsheimer is coming from a dusty cupboard filled with cobwebs and stale ideas that have crumbled with age. The cupboard is built with boards warped with age, the paint peeling, and smelling of mold and must.
@@MarcosElMalo2 Boys at the troll farm told you to try metaphors? Nice. And super-adorable, btw. :)
Mearsheimer denies Ukrainians agency the same way Kremlin does Very intellectually at that
@@georgedanilov8898 I would argue the CIA coup denied more agency than ANY Academic, but please, explain to this silly old anti-war American how he has "denied Ukranian agency" What exactly does that mean?
@@jasonsmith1155 we can stop at the “CIA coup” bullshit claim. This tired Kremlin propaganda trope is a fine enough example. Do I need to explain how it denies agency?
Another brilliant lecture by Timothy Snyder! Thank you🙌🏼
Beautiful intro. It was No Zeitenwende but Zeitverschwendung for Europe since 2014.
Thanks for featuring Mr. Snyder.
Such a rich presentation, I have to replay it.
Thank you Dr Snyder always worth price of admission!
Love this guy
Excuse me while…… I…… adjust…… my brain.
