Embark on a revelatory journey through medieval Europe in this episode of History Rage, where host Paul Bavill is joined by historian, YouTuber, and author Luke Daly. Together, they dismantle the myth of unwavering religious devotion in the Middle Ages, revealing a complex tapestry of belief and scepticism.
Challenging Blind Faith:
- Luke Daly passionately debunks the notion that medieval Europeans were blindly devoted to God, exposing the nuanced relationship between the populace and the Church.
- Discover how lords, knights, and even churchmen themselves often critiqued and deviated from the Church’s teachings, challenging the simplistic narrative of universal piety.
Relics, Miracles, and Saints:
- Explore the contentious world of relics and saints, where faith, folklore, and financial motivations intertwined, leading to both genuine veneration and sceptical criticism.
- Uncover the Church’s struggles to control and capitalise on popular worship practices, often clashing with theological doctrines.
The Church’s Power and Influence:
- Delve into the real influence of the medieval Church, questioning its perceived omnipotence and exploring its interactions with other religions.
- Understand the Church’s responses to internal and external threats, from usurious loans to the Crusades, and how it navigated the complex socio-religious landscape of the time.
Join Luke Daly as he brings Old Testament fury to Rage Towers, challenging long-held misconceptions and illuminating the intricate realities of medieval faith. To dive deeper, grab a copy of Luke’s book, Mediaeval Saints and Their Sins, and tune into the Daly Medieval Podcast on YouTube.
