Battle of the Eras: Medieval v. Early Modern
About this episode
Professor Suzannah Lipscomb and Matt Lewis debate the transition from the medieval to the early modern world, exploring key historical events and themes.
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.
