When you hear “Medieval Times” you may think of a slightly cheesy yet fun afternoon outing with knights and mead halls, but it was more than that. Populated by living, breathing (and dying) people just like us, this era laid the groundwork for civilizations to come. The fact that many of us know so little about it is our failing, not theirs. (Well, that and the fact that literacy was much less common than it is today!)
Not to worry! Professor of English and Medieval Literature Dr. Dorsey Armstrong is here to answer our questions.
Enjoy!
Why is it called the “Middle” Ages? What activities did people do for fun? Why were animals tried in court for crimes? Answers to these questions and many more await—it’s Medieval Support.
(Although it seems to have given George R.R. Martin far too many gory ideas.)
Why do I share this? You did see my previous post on time travel, right?
