Did you tweet, comment, Like, gram, post, or chat something about 2017's entry? Then you're like the many millions who are using social media to communicate with the world. Since the 2004 launch of Facebook, the impact of online networks has continually increased. Businesses eventually figured out the value of this alternative B2C marketing, and educators quickly brainstormed ways to take advantage of it as a classroom tool. The power of social networks has accordingly grown among medievalists too. It's now common to leave KZOO with new connections on Academia.edu, or with sore thumbs from live-tweeting sessions. Phone interviews happen through Google or Facebook Messenger, and there's been chatter of virtual conferences hosted on Twitter, with a limited number of tweets allowed per presenter. Goodbye 15-20 minutes, hello 500 characters. If we're disseminating the medieval in the professional networks and in the public sphere, is anyone picking it up? Is the medieval "retweetable?" We'd argue the answer is a resounding yes. The public interest in Medievalists.net, In the Middle, David Perry, #medievaltwitter, and other medieval online initiatives is growing every day. It takes ten minutes to even make a dent in viewing the search results on Twitter for #hastings950, and the story of everything between Richard III's discovery and reburial trended on every social network. Even more encouraging, this public interest is manifesting in a physical way. Historic Environment Scotland reported increased visitor numbers in 2016, in addition to Historic England's reports on the growing interest in Inclusive Heritage. Norway is expanding its national museum with a major new wing dedicated to its Viking heritage. The modern public is fascinated with the medieval past, and we hope the interest keeps on trending.

Why Did Shakespeare’s Father Paint Over Iconic Medieval Murals? Virtual reality model of image of the west wall of the guild chapel, Stratford on Avon (wasleys. org.uk/). Screens, stages and airwaves have this year been dominated by celebrations of the life of William Shakespeare, 400 years after his death. Tourists have flocked to his native Stratford- upon-Avon to see where he was born, baptised, and periodically returned to from London to see his circle of friends. Many have also visited New Place, the house he aspired to buy once he had made his money in the city.

Stratford is a powerful reminder that such destruction is a fundamental part of our own cultural inheritance – as it was for the young William Shakespeare.

  • Of 41 Aspects and Problems of the Templars' Religious Presence In
    Aspects and Problems of the Templars’ Religious Presence in Medieval Europe from the Twelfth to the Early Fourteenth Centuries By Jochen Schenk ABSTRACT: The medieval military orders were religious institutions whose members had pro- fessed to a life of combat and prayer that integrated them into a religious landscape exceedingly de- fined by diversity. And yet still very little is known about the military orders’ religious functions in the dioceses in which they held ecclesiastical possessions. By focusing on one military in particular, the Order of the Temple, this study aims to achieve two goals: first, to provide a critical overview of recent scholarship in the emerging field of military order (and especially Templar) religion, and second, to examine aspects Templar religious involvement in medieval society in general and the reactions of senior clergymen to the Templars’ religious engagement on parish level in particular. It argues that the Templars proved very keen on expanding their network of parish churches and that in so doing they proved willing to engage with the lay public on a much larger scale than has hither- to been believed. Introduction The medieval military orders were religious institutions whose members had professed to a life of combat and prayer that, although it transcended traditional forms of regular religious life by com- bining contemplation with active military service, nonetheless integrated them into a religious land- scape exceedingly defined by diversity. As part of this landscape military order communities came in regular contact with secular and regular clerics from other institutions as well as with lay men and women who provided them with revenues and possessions, among them churches and chapels and the rights pertaining to them.

    CRUSADING STUDIES V isit www.boydellandbrewer.com for full details NEW MERCHANT CRUSADERS IN THE AEGEAN, 1291-1352 MIKE CARR The period from the fall of Acre until the end of the Crusade of Smyrna signified a dramatic shift in crusade impetus, as expeditions to liberate the Holy Land were superseded by those aimed at reducing the maritime power of the Turks in the Aegean. With this shift in impetus came a change in participation, as the members of the merchant republics of Venice and Genoa, together with the Frankish states in the Aegean, began slowly to replace the chivalry of Western Europe as the most suitable leaders of a crusade. Drawing on a wealth of previously unexplored sources, this book analyses the changing Latin perceptions of the Greeks and Turks during the period, the nature of the military response to the threat posed by the Turks in the Aegean and the relationship between the papacy and the merchant crusaders. £60/$99 December 2015 978 1 84383 990 3 4 b/w illus.; 214pp, 23.4 x 15.6, HB Library e-book 978 1 78204 599 1 Warfare in History NEW NEW IN PAPERBACK CRUSADING AND PILGRIMAGE CHIVALRY, KINGSHIP IN THE NORMAN WORLD AND CRUSADE Edited by KATHRYN HURLOCK The English Experience in the Fourteenth Century & PAUL OLDFIELD TIMOTHY GUARD The reputation of the Normans is rooted in The central theme of this book is the largely warfare, faith and mobility.

  • A Counterfactual History Analysis of Henry VIII's Three So
    Male Heirs, Bastard King, Catholic England and Other Alternatives: A Counterfactual History Analysis of Henry VIII’s Three Sons Oona Harju Bachelor’s seminar and thesis (682285A) English philology Faculty of Humanities University of Oulu Autumn 2018 Harju 2 Abstract In this thesis the lives of Henry VIII’s three sons, Prince Henry, Henry Fitzroy and Edward VI, will be analysed using counterfactual history as the research method. The aim is to research what effects them not dying prematurely might have had on England’s history and how these effects would be visible in England today. Several different alternative scenarios are introduced, and their plausibility is analysed critically. This thesis concludes that the deaths of Henry VIII’s sons altered the history of England drastically. Prince Henry’s survival would have altered history the most as him surviving would have resulted in England not going through the Protestant reformation during Henry VIII’s reign and therefore remaining Catholic. Henry Fitzroy’s role is considered to be major as he is regarded as a potential King of England, regardless of his illegitimacy. Finally, Edward VI’s survival would have resulted in a smoother transition of power and it would have saved the people of England from the religious conflicts of the 1550s. Ultimately, all the scenarios would have made the Tudor era longer and changed the way the Tudors are remembered today. Tiivistelmä Tässä kandidaatintutkielmassa tutkitaan Englannin kuningas Henrik VIII:n kolmea poikaa, prinssi Henrikiä, Henrik Fitzroyta ja Edvard VI:ta ja heidän elämiään. Tutkimusmenetelmänä käytetään kontrafaktuaalista historiaa. Tutkielman tarkoituksena on tutkia, millaisia vaikutuksia poikien ennen aikaisella kuolemalla oli ja miten heidän selviytymisensä olisi muuttanut historiaa ja miten muutokset näkyisivät nykypäivän Englannissa.

  • THE UNIVERSITY of HULL a Comparison of the Cistercian And
    THE UNIVERSITY OF HULL A Comparison of the Cistercian and Knights Templar Orders, And the Personal Influence of Bernard of Clairvaux being a Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MA Historical Studies in the Department of History in the University of Hull by Lori Firth, BA History (BA Hons) 200703250 September 2012 Abstract The thesis firstly establishes the origins and ideals of the early Cistercians from primary sources. Then an analysis of the Templar sources is used to draw comparisons between the two Orders. Lastly, the thesis looks at the personal influence of St Bernard, and his opinion on the paradoxical combination of monk and knighthood that is found in the Templar Order. The thesis discovers that there are many similarities in ideology in both Orders, but that this is not the many influence of the Cistercians upon the Templars. Authenticating the Order with the Roman Catholic Church and the Templar Order’s structure appear to be the most influential impacts that the Cistercians have, and it is through these that the Knights Templar managed to gain support and grow at an exponential rate. St Bernard’s personal impact was to bring the Templars into the mainstream thinking of the Church by tying them to traditional routes rather than portraying the Order as an innovation. Bernard’s support of the Order in turn led to widespread support in Europe that no other supporter could have provided for the Knights Templar. Contents Introduction 1 Chapter 1: The Cistercian Origins & Early Ideals 11 Chapter 2: The Early Templars & the Cistercian Influence 25 Chapter 3: Bernard’s Influence & Opinion on the Knights Templar 37 Conclusion 47 Bibliography 49 Introduction This study will look at the early sources of both the Cistercian and Templar orders in an attempt to uncover similarities between the two, and the influence of the former on the latter.
