Everybody admitted it at the same time. The whole internet looked up from its phone and confessed that yes, actually, it thinks about the Roman Empire constantly. We turned it into a joke because that is what we do with things that scare us a little. But the joke had a secret inside it, and the secret is this: we cannot stop thinking about Rome because we never actually left it. This book takes the meme seriously without taking itself seriously at all. It argues something genuinely strange and genuinely true—that Rome didn't collapse so much as migrate.

Herodotus was the world’s first known performance artists. He didn’t write his Histories to be read but to be told. He sat in agoras throughout the Hellenic world and enacted his stories for drachmas. He explained that the conflict between the East and West all started because of the rape and kidnap of Io, Europa, and Medea. You can throw in Helen if you wish but on this point Herodotus dissed Homer. According to the Father of Western History, Helen was never in Troy!

The kidnap and rape of Io, Europa, and Medea started the conflict between the East and the West. You can throw in Helen if you wish, but Herodotus (484-425 B.C.) dissed Homer on this point. Helen was never in Troy! And Philippides did not run the first Marathon to Athens, announce the victory over the Persians, and die! No.“Herein lies my research as to why the Hellenes and the barbarians, the West and the East, made war on each other,” Herodotus stated. A war we are still fighting today. BECAUSE OF THE WOMEN is a transliteration of Herodotus’s HISTORIES.
