In the twenty-third episode of 5 Minute Disasters, we explore the tragic story of the destruction of the Library of Alexandria, one of history’s greatest cultural losses. In just five minutes, we recount how this ancient centre of knowledge, renowned for its vast collection of texts from across the ancient world, was lost to history through a mix of war, neglect, and political turmoil. The episode delves into the mystery surrounding its downfall, the invaluable knowledge it may have contained, and its enduring legacy as a symbol of intellectual aspiration. Join us as we uncover the story of a catastrophe that changed the course of human history.
