Battle of the Eras: Medieval v. Early Modern

from Not Just the Tudors

What if the medieval world did not end with a bang, but with a messy argument over who gets to define history itself? Professor Suzannah Lipscomb spars with Gone Medieval's host Matt Lewis over Gutenberg, the Reformation, witchcraft, plague, the Renaissance, and the Wars of the Roses to ask where medieval ends and early modern begins. The result is a lively, surprising fight over power, change, and the making of the modern world.More:Mother of All Tudors: Margaret BeaufortListen on AppleListen on SpotifyHenry VIIListen on AppleListen on SpotifyPresented by Professor Suzannah Lipscomb.
