American Medieval is a podcast about the Middle Ages, but with an American twist. If America has never been modern, it’s because we’ve always been slightly medieval. Host @profgabriele.com, part of @multitude.productions linktr.ee/americanmedievalshow

What a fun episode! @lisafdavis.bsky.social has a manuscriptroadtrip.wordpress.com road trip showing all the known medieval manuscript and pieces in the U.S. I'm lucky to live near the Walters collections.

Understanding marginalization and toleration as a spectrum shaped by contingency and context, not as a binary, is extremely important. Many of the sources that depict the most horrific violence bear witness to some degree of toleration that existed prior to persecution. 1/

The intolerant Middle Ages, plus the tolerant Middle Ages? #podcast #medieval #history #crusades YouTube video by American Medieval

tolerance & intolerance in the Middle Ages weren't like a light switch - just on/ off. instead, think of it like a faucet, whose levels varied and could change depending on context. listen to @eugene-smelyansky.bsky.social

Gotta say, I am desperately looking forward to a time that Eleanor Janega has a large enough fanbase for her scholarship that she can just go wild and publish on whatever the fuck she wants.  Like, g-d yes PLEASE tell me about something I haven't already read 30 books on.  P L E A S E.  My crops are failing, and the rain they need is medieval Czech history

the children yearn for the Czech History @goingmedieval.bsky.social

I had so much fun recording this episode! But also it’s never a bad day to remind the world that Samuel Huntington and the people who use his theories do indeed suck.
