When Mark Carney quoted Thucydides at Davos this week, he proved what we already know: Ancient Greek thought still shapes how we understand power today. 2,400+ years later, the classics remain essential reading for modern leaders. #Classics #AncientGreece #Thucydides #AncientBluesky

Think studying Ancient Greek is irrelevant? When Mark Carney quoted Thucydides at Davos, it was because the Thucydides understood power dynamics better than most modern analysts. Ancient Greek isn't dead - it's speaking directly to our present. #Classics #Thucydides #PowerPolitics #AncientGreek
