1 of 6 "One of the world's greatest authorities on the Middle Ages, Professor Robert Bartlett of St Andrew's University, investigates the intellectual landscape of the medieval world. In Sex, he unearths remarkable evidence of the complex passions of medieval men and women. The Church preached hatred of the flesh, promoted the cult of virginity and condemned woman as the sinful heir to Eve. Yet this was the era that gave birth to the idea of romantic, or 'courtly' love."

It's from a show called Øystein & Meg (Øystein & I) produced by the Norwegian Broadcasting television channel (NRK) in 2001. The spoken language is Norwegian.

Medieval Fiddle (Vielle) Music
Medieval Fiddle (Vielle) Music
Ancient dance tunes played by Barry Hall on the vielle. The vielle is a medieval fiddle, an ancestor of the modern violin. Vielles are more primitive in design than violins - they use plain gut strings and have a flat soundboard and back, rather than the arched top and back used on more modern instruments. When these instruments were popular, there was very little standardization of size, shape, number of strings, or tuning. This particular instrument has five strings, is similar in size to a viola, and was made by Ethan James (RIP) the renowned hurdy-gurdy player. More of Barry's music here: www.ninestones.com

Top Ten films about the Middle Ages (part 1)
Top Ten films about the Middle Ages (part 1)
I decided to create a list of my favorite films based on the medieval period. Most of them are just a cinematic experience and don't offer a real look to the period, so this is just for the movies, not for the real history (some historians say the middle ages didn't exist, and that this centuries are just an extension of antiquity). Well in this first part you will find 5 movies: 10.- "El Cid" 9.- "The 13th Warrior" 8.- "The War Lord" 7.- "Ladyhawke" 6.- "Juana la Loca" (Mad Love) This is a personal list so you can comment and suggest whatever you want. One more thing, Ladyhawke (also The 13th warrior) can be defined as fantasy, but its placed in a moment in history with real people, despite the main characters were not real. I hope you like it!!!! Please Comment!!! The Music is from Werner Herzog's: "Nosferatu:Phantom der Nacht": "Mantra" and "Through Pians to Heaven".

Christian Materiality: Miracles in the Later Middle Ages
Christian Materiality: Miracles in the Later Middle Ages
In the period between 1150 and 1550 a number of Christians in western Europe made pilgrimages to places where material objects--among them paintings, statues, relics, and Eucharistic wafers--allegedly erupted into life by such activities as bleeding, weeping, and walking about. In this lecture, Professor Bynum describes the miracles, discusses the problems they presented for both church authorities and the ordinary faithful, and probes the basic assumptions about matter that lay behind them.
