Ep. 75 - Hypatia and the Philosophers Robes

Let's take it back. WAAAY back. Back to Ancient Alexandria (Egypt) where we meet Hypatia, only daughter and child of Theon. And they were the definition of a healthy Father-Daughter Philosophical Mathematics duo!

Why is she important? Ohhhh, just by being a beauty! A SMART beauty, who rose the ranks of Academia and began to lead lectures on her own. Men (and some women, we imagine) would come from all over the Mediterrannean to learn from her. She was BIG NEWS! But not everyone loved her like we do...
