About this listen

Myths are incredibly powerful, especially when it comes to creating nations.

Joining Kate to explore these fascinating and important ideas today is the fantastic author and historian Dr Janina Ramirez.


This episode was edited by Tim Arstall and produced by Stuart Beckwith. The senior producer was Freddy Chick.
