Dr. Alex Petkas spent years learning dead languages so he could tell you what the greatest men who ever lived were actually like. This one goes everywhere — a library buried by Vesuvius, a coup that broke Sparta, philosophers who got way too close to power, and why Julius Caesar wept in front of a statue. There are hundreds of scrolls under that villa that no living person has read. That's about to change.
