This week we negotiate the complexities of human nature, benevolence, and the power of our imagination for better or for worse. From folklore to Scottish Gaelic, to music and fashion - we consider human nature and what is the purpose of life?

Neil MacGregor catapults us back more than two thousand years, exploring how cultural artifacts negate mythology, we look at the power of protest and of lives well spent as we weave a new and brighter future.
