The Middle Ages with Ian Mortimer
Aspects of History
English - February 25, 2023 05:00 - 54 minutes - ★★★★★ - 20 ratingsHistory Arts Books Homepage Download Apple Podcasts Google Podcasts Overcast Castro Pocket Casts RSS feed
My guest this week is the bestselling author of the Medieval period Ian Mortimer. We get to grips with the issues of the era, including when it starts and ends; the introduction of time; slavery, serfdom and inequality; the Black Death; the Middle Ages on film, Edward III and Richard III, and plenty more.
Ian is a fascinating historian who makes you think about a period that is often dismissed by certain historians and Tarantino crime lords as simply being about torture and brutality, but the truth is far more interesting.
