Original Episode Title: Teddy Roosevelt Nearly Died in a Cavalry Charge Against German Machine Guns in WW1Suggested Show Notes/Description: Teddy Roosevelt faced many challenges at the end of his life. Racked by rheumatism, a ticking embolism, pathogens in his blood, a bad leg from an accident, and a bullet in his chest from an assassination attempt. But none of that stopped Roosevelt from attempting to reassemble the Rough Riders for a final charge against the Germans in World War One, pushing them into a likely suicide mission of a cavalry attack against 50 caliber machine guns.Suffering from grief and guilt, marginalized by world events, the great glow that had been his life was now but a dimming lantern. But TR's final years were productive ones as well: he churned out several “instant” books that promoted U.S. entry into the Great War, and he was making plans for another run at the Presidency in 1920 at the time of his death. Indeed, his political influence was so great that his opposition to the policies of Woodrow Wilson helped the Republican Party take back the Congress in 1918. To look at Roosevelt's final years, Scott Rank, host of History Unplugged, speaks with Bill Hazelgrove, author of “The Last Charge of the Rough Rider.” It was Roosevelt's quest for the “vigorous life” that, ironically, may have led to his early demise at the age of sixty. "The Old Lion is dead,” TR's son Archie cabled his brother on January 6, 1919, and so, too, ended a historic era in American life and politics.

Teddy Roosevelt faced many challenges at the end of his life. Racked by rheumatism, a ticking embolism, pathogens in his blood, a bad leg from an accident, and a bullet in his chest from an assassination attempt. But none of that stopped Roosevelt from attempting to reassemble the Rough Riders for a final charge against the Germans in World War One, pushing them into a likely suicide mission of a cavalry attack against 50 caliber machine guns.Suffering from grief and guilt, marginalized by world events, the great glow that had been his life was now but a dimming lantern. But TR's final years were productive ones as well: he churned out several “instant” books that promoted U.S. entry into the Great War, and he was making plans for another run at the Presidency in 1920 at the time of his death. Indeed, his political influence was so great that his opposition to the policies of Woodrow Wilson helped the Republican Party take back the Congress in 1918. To look at Roosevelt's final years, Scott Rank, host of History Unplugged, speaks with Bill Hazelgrove, author of “The Last Charge of the Rough Rider.” It was Roosevelt's quest for the “vigorous life” that, ironically, may have led to his early demise at the age of sixty. "The Old Lion is dead,” TR's son Archie cabled his brother on January 6, 1919, and so, too, ended a historic era in American life and politics.

Alexander the Great's death at 323 BC in Babylon marked the end of the most consequential military campaign in antiquity. He left behind an empire that stretched from Greece to India, planted the seeds of the Silk Road, and made Greek an international language across Eurasia, all in 13 short years. But what if he had not died as a young man? What if he had lived years or decades more? To explore this hypothetical scenario, host Scott Rank interviews Anthony Everitt, author of “Alexander the Great: His Life and Mysterious Death.” In this fascinating discussion, Scott and Anthony look at the life of the most influential person in the ancient world and explore the ramifications of his life having even more influence.

This episode is a preview of History Unplugged hosted by Scott Rank, a podcast in the Parthenon Podcast network.War is assumed to be one of the chief features of human history. Plenty of ancient and modern writers back up this perspective (Plato said that only the dead have seen the end of war; John Steinbeck said all war is a symptom of man's failure as a thinking animal, suggesting it was hard-wired into our brutish nature). But what if the conventional wisdom is wrong? What if war isn't the status quo? This is the argument made by today's guest, who says prolonged violence between groups isn't normal.

The Synod of Whitby was the event where a number of threads of the story come together. Computus, monastic practices and King Oswiu of Northumbria's family problems were at least partially settled. Let's find out how!•With that, here is the next piece of the mosaic of the history of the Popes of Rome and Christian Church.[00:00:00] We've talked about colo and Colomb Bonis who are some of the other, um, big names we should keep our eyes on. Yeah. So there were. Uh, there's so many saints that you can have a, a look at, um, there's Adam, who is the, the author of the life of St. Columbus. He's a Saint in his own. Right. And he wrote a number of things.There's of course, bead, uh, there's Malachy of Armand that I am, of course interested in because he spent time as Abbot at banger as well. There's. Um, I'm trying to think. Names have just flown right out of my head. There's St. Brendan who most people will know of as Brendan the navigator. There's kinda, there's more saints than you could shake a stick at, as you like to say, where I grew up Oswalt.He was the king of Benicia and. Was that a Celtic land? No. So that is, uh, gonna be sex and kingdoms. We [00:01:00] would know them more, uh, generally as Northumbria, but there would've been a certain amount of, uh, crossover because it was so far north. Yeah. So there would be. Crossover you we've got these different kinda kingdoms that are pushing against each other.And so they're gonna have conflicts, they're gonna have intermarriages, there's gonna be power fluctuations in the area. And the thing about OAL is that he and his brother awe had spent time in Del RDA, or maybe in Ireland as well when they were in exile, their. Side of the family had kind of been overthrown from the throne.And so they had to go into exile. So they were educated in this kind of Gaelic or Gaelic church situation. And so when OAL regained the throne, you know, he asked Iona to provide a Bishop for not only him self, but also to help with the conversion process for his kingdom. And it [00:02:00] was an Ivan who he then gave land to at Linda's farm to found a monastery there.So although this was a north kingdom, we're seeing this Iona or this Irish brand of Christianity being the one that's brought in and you'll even see when be talks of a out. The conversion of north embryo. He is very positive and effusive about the Irish. It's almost so the Irish can't do anything wrong, even when they are doing things wrong versus the way he talks about the British church.You know, he's taking part of it from Gilda who thinks that everyone is terrible all the time, but he's also upset wel or the British or Welsh. If you wanna call em that. Didn't engage in the conversion of the north Umbrians or of the Saxons, but we can wonder, you know, to what degree you would want to be part of the conversion process of your enemy.If the Saxons had come to conquer your [00:03:00] lands, like, are you gonna turn around and be like, Hey, let's talk about Jesus. So we, all of that going on Oswald is a sax. In an Anglosaxon area that has Celtic in it, but he asks Iona to bring a Bishop Aiden or you pronounced it. Ivan. I Ivan. Yes, Ivan. Um, he, who presumably is Celtic to set up the, this farm in north.Where does. What kind of flavor does that give the, the Linda's farm monastery when it's getting set up, as far as theology goes, Yeah. So we would really consider that kind of this Irish style, uh, monastery, you know, they would look to Iona for a lot of information and support and so we could consider it very closely, kind of.I don't wanna say [00:04:00] allies, but I'll, I'll say it anyway, Alli to Iona and of a mind with it. If you like, and this will change very starkly after the Sy of Whitby. And that's when we see it change to this Northumbrian or this more Roben style, because they decide or. Us. We really decides to, you know, we're gonna go with this calculation that Rome is going with, even though Rome had recently changed which calculation they were going with.And you don't see that mentioned in be, you don't see that mentioned in. The life of Columb Bon, you don't see that mentioned the life of Wilfrid. You know, they're not going, oh, Hey, by the way, Rome just recently changed. They're they're kind of smoothing all of that over to make it seem like Rome was, you know, of the same position the whole time.That's that's really interesting. One question I have. One is bead writing in comparison to these events that we're talking about. [00:05:00] Yeah. So bead was alive at this time. So he knew Wilfred personally. Um, as far as his specific dates, let me have a quick think. So, yeah, he would've been like late seventh towards like, not quite mid eighth century, but yeah, he is said to have known Adam men personally and Adam men have.Said to have gone down to visit with him. So yeah, he is. He's talking about a lot of events as far as the Easter controversy goes that he'll have been, you know, really close to. So this isn't the case of like writing a hundred years later or 200 years later. And through beads writing, do we see him as he leaning more towards.The Roman position or more towards the Iver position, given that he was a Linda farm guy. So he wasn't a Linda's farm guy. He was [00:06:00] born near the, the monastery of Yaro. And so, oh, that's right. Yeah. yeah. So he's north UMBR and he is firmly on the north thumb side as far as school. So he. He's very, you know, we are properly Orthodox and we are following the way of Rome.And so, yeah, it it's obvious where his kind of proclivities lie if you like, and yeah, that's he likes the Irish, but he is like, oh, well, even when they're wrong, they're still trying really hard to be. Right. So we should still like them, but before we move any of. Um, too much further.

There were many issues, groups and opinions at play. Let's find out more!•With that, here is the next piece of the mosaic of the history of the Popes of Rome and Christian Church.[00:00:00] I'd like to welcome back Dr. Carly McNamara to discuss our, or to continue discussing our trip through the history of Christianity in Ireland and the British ISS. I would definitely highly suggest you go back and listen to the previous episodes, especially the one on archeology. I think people will really enjoy the at.Today, we're diving into a really interesting topic that I think is incredibly important and probably not as well known, especially when you really dig into the nitty gritty of the topic. And it's the Easter controversy in between the churches and Ireland and in England and the British aisles in general, uh, maybe layouts, um, that Dr.McNamara, some of the. Issues that are involved with this Easter controversy. Yeah. So the main issue of course, is the calculation of when Easter is meant to fall. [00:01:00] And so this is done through a process called computes, which is just. The name for the masks involved. And it's generally a, a fairly complicated process because it deals with both lunar and solar calendars.And in addition to that, it's got to be after the date of Passover. So it has to occur after the Equinox and the full moon. After Passover, but also on a Sunday. And that just almost feels like a mental game of twister so it get into some fairly complex masks that, that I try to avoid myself as a historian, but yeah, that's the main thing.And then other things that we see discussed, um, in Ireland and Britain space civically is kind of the Tarcher that is used by monks in orders. There's some other really brief mentions of other possible things, but they're never really identified clearly. And it may just [00:02:00] kind of be people trying to, to make digs at each other in small ways.It's a, the, the whole idea, the. Dating of Easter. It's so complicated. I got into this in some of my earlier episodes on the council of NAC, where they really hammered that out. And, uh, there was a big controversy, whether it should always be on the certain date, the 15th of ni Nissan, or should it be on the Sunday.And so they come up with this really complicated equation of, like you said, all these different dates that are swirling around each other. Uh, Was it pretty much that by the point that the Irish and that the Easter controversy in Britain, the, I guess you might say that the broad strokes of it were figured out the Easter controversy, but now they're digging into sort of controversy 2.0 of these whole ideas of lunar cycles and you yearly cycles and it's, it's even more complicated than.What they were arguing [00:03:00] about a few hundred years earlier at the council of NAIA. Yeah, I think you're right. I think this really is kind of Easter controversy. 2.0, if you like, and you know, for people who have heard of the Easter controversy, it's really usually fashioned in this. You know, quote unquote Irish church versus the Roman church, but really there's three different methods of calculation that are all kind of floating around near the same time here.So we've got, what's called the 84 year cycle or the, the Celtic cycle that it's frequently called, which is what was in use in Britain and Ireland. And that includes, you know, the, the British church or what we might think of as the. It would include the Irish and the picks. So you've got them using this 84 year cycle.You've got this Victorian calculation that was created by victorious of Acutane in 4 57. That was in use in GA in Spain. And then you've got this 19 [00:04:00] year cycle that was created by DESE. Gus, uh, that didn't get adopted in Rome until the six thirties, which, you know, we might think of as fairly late in the game, as far as this is concerned.And the fact that, you know, we'll kind of talk about this in, of what only happened in 6 64. It's interesting too, because the Easter controversy and the controversy over the dating of Ireland and. Course of church history comes up again with the Gregorian calendar reforms in the middle ages. And then even today there's, if you look at the Eastern Orthodox, they've had a controversy over it.And that, that's why if you look at your calendar, they'll have the Orthodox Easter and the Catholic Easter, because it's another controversy with the dating of Easter. So we're talking about a controversy that's been brewing for 1700 years or so. Yeah, that's quite a while to still be working on the same issue.uh, that's one of the big issues with this, uh, whole controversy is [00:05:00] the Roman church is starting to get some influence. In the churches in Britain. What, what could we say about that? So I think that we wanna be careful about how much power we consider Rome to have in this period. I mean, they are recognized as the seat of Peter and Paul, so they do have this kind of.I don't no, we could call it first among equals kind of situation. So they are recognized as having a, a position of significance, but they're not the kind of powerful central, you know, seat of Catholicism. Like we see today. So today the Pope says X, Y, and Z, and everybody goes right. That's what it is. But back in this time period, there was a lot of disagreements that was happening and that was allowed to happen.And so if. Different bishops in GA or in Britain or in Ireland where having a disagreement, they might send people to [00:06:00] Rome to get Rome, to act as a kind of appellate court for decision making. So if they say we can't get together and agree on this, so we'll go to Rome, which has authority that we respect, but necessarily that we.Always obey to get some assistance in trying to make some decisions when they're having trouble. I'll use this as a time to do a little foreshadowing of my next series. I think you're absolutely correct in that what we view as PayPal power and pop power today really is a fairly modern, innovative, and it's something that they would not have recognized at all back then that a Pope could just say, well, Just do it this way and that's how it is.

This time we are going to continue talking about Dr. McNamara's personal study of archaeology at the Isle of Lismore in Scotland. We get into some of the more problematic and fun aspects of archaeology. Hint, Indiana Jones is problematic. •With that, here is the next piece of the mosaic of the history of the Popes of Rome and Christian Church.[00:00:00] That's really interesting because it adds something, like you said, that there was a possibility of something being a bronze age and that's something who would write about that. If you're just setting up a monastery there and there's a house that was maybe there and it was super old, or maybe it wasn't, they wouldn't maybe even known it was there.It had already been buried. So that's something that would just never come across and attacks. Right. And even. Um, Bronx and doing that exist on the island, that likely would have had people living in them at the time that would have come over. And, you know, that's not mentioned in the text at all, and we don't technically even get a mention of the founding of the church.We just have to presume it happened before Miller died in 5 92. And so, um, Some of these items help you and help, uh, others experts learn a little bit more about the site. Yeah. So the structures can help us [00:01:00] understand a site because we, we know that there are typical kinds of houses or structures that are built, uh, Are looking at the vallum around a church, which is, it's not quite a wall, it's usually a ditch, but it kind of delineates the, the monastery of the church's space from the general secular space.And based on the shape of the vallum can give us a little bit of information about maybe who built that church or who built that original structure, the designs, or even the type of pottery, like it's shaped. Composition can tell us if they were trading with someone in this pottery has come from somewhere else.You know, we know that there were Roman and for I, and such that were being traded into the north of Britain during Roman times. And so we can find out more about, you know, who is trading with who or who's making, what we can find. Information, um, from the animal bones heal, do they [00:02:00] show signs of being butchered?So are these animals that were being eaten or is it more likely that this was just somebody's old horse who died out in the field and they maybe just kind of covered it up and buried it? So there's a lot of information and even say in the shroud pen, the decoration that exists on that shroud pen, they can compare with other shroud pins that have been found elsewhere and kind of see.Where that fits in and that can help us understand more about the site and its people. Can you tell us a little bit more about the human graves and some of the human remains that were found? Right. So, as I said, they had their, uh, their human remains specialist. And so she was able to. To know much more than I would ever know.I'm not sure. I would even really recognize a human bone from an animal bone. If you put them in front of me and didn't tell me there was one of each. So, um, she said that they did [00:03:00] find as expected adults being buried. They did find some juveniles or younger people. And then also some infants and some were in.Yeah, what we might consider a proper grave. Like this was their original burial place. They were intended to be put in like this, in this place. And some that were what's referred to as disturbed. So there were probably moved from somewhere else or some other method of having disturbed those remains. But, uh, as far as.Close details on that. I wait anxiously for the final dig report, which I'm really looking forward to reading when they, um, on earth human remains, what did they do with them afterwards? A lot of that depends on. The community that it's found in the place that's found in and the culture surrounding that and, you know, the connection that those people might have [00:04:00] to the living communities.So in north America, the U S specifically, there is a law it's called NAGPRA, which is the north American graves repatriation act. And because the. The indigenous peoples and the various cultures that exist in north America still have very close cultural, religious, and familial ties to these early people today.Now it wasn't always this way. There's a requirement that those remains be returned to. Culture. So that way they can be appropriately reentered, uh, previous to the existence of laws like that most bones would just be put into a collection and put into storage in a museum. So you'll see sometimes in the news stories of the reentering of remains that were gathered for archeological purposes and other times.Those remains to go into museums. Yeah, it's [00:05:00] really interesting because I was just talking to somebody else about Billy, the kid's bones, and this is kind of completely unrelated, but people wanted to, uh, disinter him and his mom and like three other people to try and prove some point of who, um, if somebody else was an imposter or actually Billy the kid.And I was thinking to myself, that seems like a lot. Disruption of the burial goods or, you know, buried people just for a curiosity. And it seems like that could be a very fine line and archeology of, yeah. You really want to find something and, but these are real people too. Yeah. And there's definitely.Respect that's shown to any human remains that are found no matter how old they are. You know, there's always this recognition, like these are actual people that lived, whether it's a baby that didn't live that long, or whether it's a 80 year old person. [00:06:00] You know, you found the remains in the ground. So you all archeologists always want to treat them with respect and be sensitive to the fact that these were real living people that existed.Now, what was it like to be on a, on an actual archeological dig? Because it's kind of something like half between a construction site and a scientific laboratory. What was it like actually being on this dig and, yeah, it was lots of fun. It was lots of hard work. Yeah, we spent every day that I was there. I was there for six days.

We discuss the importance of connecting the history of actual artifacts and texts to make a clearer understanding of history. Dr. McNamara also explains the benefits and drawbacks of reliance on texts and archaeology in the study of the past.With that, here is the next piece of the mosaic of the history of the Popes of Rome and Christian Church.[00:00:00] Welcome back to another exciting episode in our series on Irish Christianity. And we are joined again by Dr. Carlene McNamara of the university of Glasgow. And today's a little bit of, we're stepping out of the exact narrative of Irish Christianity. But we're going to focus in on one really specific and interesting aspect of the study of Christianity and this whole area of the world.And that's true. The lens of archeology and Dr. McNamara was. Able to participate in an actual archeological dig in Scotland. And that's what we're really going to discuss today. So some specifics about this particular site and some of the overview of the importance of archeology and practically how archeology is done.Dr. McNamara, how are you doing today? I'm doing excellent. You know, had some [00:01:00] recuperation time now from the dig, which was great fun. So I'm happy to be here to talk to you about it today. Well, yeah, we're, I'm definitely excited to learn more. Now. I guess the broadest question that we could ask is what is archeology.Yeah, that's an excellent question. So my, my first thoughts on that are that it's a method of examining the past and kind of an approach and methodology that we can. Used to examine the past. And then in addition to that, it's a science. So it's something exciting and you can put that meticulous scientific brain.You have to archeology as much as you can put that more. Free forum kind of historical brain towards that. And I like to just take a moment to talk about all the different kinds of hard sciences that we might think about and can add to archeology. So there's no botany you can [00:02:00] do. Archeological botany specialty, where you look at the plants that are being dug up or that there's evidence that were around at the time, this biology, whether you want to look at people or animals or the environment, chemistry, zoology, which of course is going to be more about the animals, computer science, you can bring that into archeology, forensics, climate, or environment studies, geology, earth science.Even astronomy and maritime studies, you can look at underwater archeology or coastal archeology. There's just so much that is encapsulated within archeology itself. That just, I think makes it mind boggling how much. To dig into for it. It's gotta be really difficult to be an archeologist because you really have to be an expert in the particular methodology of archeology, which is a PhD in, uh, in and of itself.Then you have to [00:03:00] at least know something about the history, to know what you're digging for. And they have to have all sorts of specialized knowledge of the equipment they need to use. And if they have to use a backhoe or an underwater archeology, the whole thing. Killing yourself. Deep sea diving. Yeah.Underwater archeology, I think is just astonishing because you're right at the very outset before you even get to do anything, archaeological you have to be a trained, skillful, scuba diver, and just the thought of having to then try to meticulously go through sta chick. Still take her a fee on the floor of a body of water.Yeah, you're in this environment. It's not like you just put the dirt in a bucket and take it and dump it into a pile. Like there's just so much to dig into with that as a concept that it, I find it astonishing. Now we're doing a history podcast here in a history lecture series with you on the history of the papacy podcast on Irish [00:04:00] Christianity.Why don't, what do we need to know archeology for? Why is archeology important for this? Yeah. So this is another great question. And I'll start by pointing out that I'm not an archeologist. Like that's not my primary area of research. And I don't consider myself an archeologists though. I work with archeological material and material culture, quite a bit in my own research.So I find it quite useful as a interdisciplinary researcher to look to archeology as a. Another avenue of finding information about the past, and I can then try to connect it to the textual evidence that I have, or if there's no textual evidence in some times, which does occur. And especially at the site of Lismore that we're going to talk about today, there are periods where there's really very little textual evidence or no textual evidence.And all we have is the archeology to [00:05:00] tell us more. So. Uh, in a more broad terms, you know, if an early author writes about an item and then we find it in an archeological dig and we can date that item to the time period when the author was writing about it, then that can help confirm that we can trust what the author said.So it can give us some evidence of reliability in our textual records. And. Yeah. As I said, when there's no textual record, it can help to fill some gaps, even though they're not the same kind of evidence. And I wouldn't call them a one for one exchange, they are really useful to be interdisciplinary. And how you approach it.Archeology can also give us a lot more detail about material culture or the things that we might get from just reading, you know, how much detail will an author go into and describing a medieval shoe versus what we can learn by finding one. What happened when the [00:06:00] textual evidence conflicts with the archeological evidence?Yeah, this is a great question. And so the biggest question that comes up from that for me is why does it conflict and how does it conflict? Because those questions themselves may lead us to a better understanding of the situation, you know, If it's just one small piece of evidence, we might weigh that against the variety of textual accounts that survive.

We also look at how the Norse in Ireland absorbed, developed and even used Christianity to advance their position in Ireland during the early medieval period. Christianity was well established in Ireland by the time the Norse arrived and Christianity was a powerful cultural force for the Norse to adopt, but also adapt to their own needs and goals. I am very excited to talk about this topic!•With that, here is the next piece of the mosaic of the history of the Popes of Rome and Christian Church.[00:00:00] What were some of the similarities and differences between the way the Norse interacted with the locals in Ireland as a posed to Scotland or some of the other, you know, Caltech areas you might call them? Ooh, that's a good question. Um, I feel like Alex Wolf would be the one to read the books on because I have a personal interest in, in the isle of man.Um, I, I don't think I'd be able to systematically talk about the relationship of say, uh, picks or, or people in Eastern Scotland, um, and their relationship with, with the Norris there. I just, I haven't studied it enough that I I'd be able to, to, uh, I be able to talk about it in detail. Um, I do have to say that that Ireland does have a really thick analystic and as well as this dynastic propaganda.Um, whereas it's, it's a lot lighter on the ground and I love man in Scotland, so that in of itself might make [00:01:00] my make that, um, uh, last time and now getting into the interaction they had religiously the, could you tell us a little bit about Norse religion? Absolutely. Okay. So Norris religion at this time was aware of and being touched by and being shaped by, um, both Roman religion, as well as Christianity.Um, there was no sense of a pan Norse Pantheon. There was no sense of a series of, of priesthoods or, or a central. System of, uh, okay. These people go to this school for training and then they go back to their hometown. Um, now there were, you know, religious centers, but they were, they were really only important for, you know, people within one to three days ride or travel.There was not this concept of, of there is one holy place and everything derives from it. It was very [00:02:00] much a local familial DDD. Got bigger and bigger. Um, you know, there's, there's plenty of anthropological work on, on the cults of, oh then the cults of tear and fill and these gods. Um, so when we talk about north to religion at this time, um, it's, it's a.It's a religion that is only thinking about itself as it is being replaced. You know, people didn't have to think about what their relationship was to the gods or to land when it was just everything. When it was just the way you did things. And now people are coming with crosses on their chest saying there's only one God, and this is the God.And now, now these people who have just believed what their ancestors believed are going. I don't know what I believe, but it's not a cross. I feel really close to the store guy. I'm going to wear a hammer. Um, you know, people weren't wearing hammers, uh, 2002 go, they were wearing them. Oh, that's interesting.Yeah. I was going to ask about that. [00:03:00] Yeah. Yeah, exactly. They, they didn't, they didn't have a sense of, of formal religion. Now that's not to say that it wasn't important to them. It's not to say that there weren't priests, you know, there absolutely were, there were holy sites and, and, you know, really fabulous rights that left behind some really fascinating archeological stuff.In the ninth century in the ninth, 10th centuries, um, he then re the, the, the act of, of, of worshiping the old God, the foreign Cedar, the old ways, um, was really kind of crystallizing in his, as it was coming to a close recognizing. Um, you know, now people are saying to change the God that you worship. And, and so you had to kind of wrap your head around that, wrap your head around the idea of, um, having to culturally convert, um, and, and change the way you worship and the way you do things.So, um, Uh, so north religion, you know, like we nowadays, [00:04:00] we're all familiar with Thor and, and, and that, um, mythology, but that mythology that we're using nowadays was pretty much codified at this time. Um, and a few centuries later in ice London in, uh, in the forms of, of Snorri stir listens, um, uh, codifying the north snore Smiths, um, the codex Regius collecting, uh, old Scholastic poetry.Um, it's, it's, it's powerful stuff. It's, it's, it's amazing stuff, but it's also, you know, the, the, the Swan song of, of, of a really big kaleidoscope of, of ways of seeing the world that had to get collapsed very quickly, uh, in the face of Christianity and then their day-to-day worship. Necessarily, we'd get a, you look in the delayer, uh, children's book of Norse mythology, and they have a chart of Thor here and oh, and here is that how they would have conceived of it or would have gone village to village.We're [00:05:00] more of a Thor village here. And this is more because it is it's their culture. It's their it's was something that was really ingrained into their. Entire life. And it's not Christianity where it's this, this and this and it's doctrinal. And that it was something that, and maybe imposed isn't the right word.But that's something that when you adopt Christianity, you're getting this manual of how to do it. Is that how Norse religion would have looked and now a word from our sponsors.Right. Exactly. It's it's the opposite of that. It's it's is do it yourself. It's it's what was handed down to you? So the way you said that were Thor family or, or in this valley, we honor Frere, um, would, would very much be the way of things that you can kind of see that with, with, I don't know how many Norse names you've encountered, but sometimes you have families or every single kid is a [00:06:00] Thorstein Thor, rust or vault.That's a Thor fam. Um, you know, and then, you know, gods are, were also be associated with, um, social classes. Uh, you know, um, a blacksmith would probably have a different deity than, than the fishermen's that even village. Um, but there is, there was not this, this one big how to guidebook, there was no dogma to it.There was, it was, it was. Doing doing right by the way, things had always been done in your area rather than some holy man, um, imposing things from a manual, from a book or something like that. So, um, you know, and even then things would have changed generation to generation because this is all oral culture.

With that, here is the next piece of the mosaic of the history of the Popes of Rome and Christian Church.[00:00:00] I'd like to welcome our very special guests today. Annie Humphrey, to talk about the Vikings in Ireland and the Viking relationship with British Christianity and Christianity in general, Annie is writing her PhD thesis on the Norse and middle age, Irish literature. They have been given numerous talks on the interaction between the north and Gaelic cultures during the medieval period.Thank you so much. For coming on to talk about this fascinating topic, Dr. Carly knack McNamara suggested I reach out to talk to you about the role of the north and the history of Ireland and the British Isles and how the North's adopted and adapted and impacted the culture and history of this region.And I'm really looking forward to talking to you about this fascinating topic, but before we get too far, can you tell us a bit about yourself? Sure. Thank you so much, Steven. So I'm a final year PhD at Trinity college, Dublin under the supervision of Sean Duffy, who's professor of Irish and insular history.Um, I previously went to, um, university of [00:01:00] Connecticut where I got a master's degree in medieval studies and my undergraduate was Rutgers university in New Jersey where I double majored in history and medieval studies. Also during my time at Rutgers, I went to university college cork and earned a certificate in Irish studies.And that's really when, um, things kicked off for me in terms of learning Irish language, uh, as well as medieval Irish language, um, and, uh, medieval Irish literature. Um, so. When I was at, uh, the final year of Rutgers, as well as university of Connecticut, I, um, really focused in, on, uh, Icelandic literature. I was interested in the way that the gales, um, Scottish and Irish people were written about in Icelandic settlement and literature.Um, and so I took a few years out of academia, had a kids, um, Uh, taught a bit at local institutions and then I returned to academia for a PhD and kind of the opposite, the way that the Norse are written about in [00:02:00] Irish, um, sources and specifically I'm using, um, middle Irish dynastic propaganda literature, um, because its historicity has been questioned and rightfully so it is dynastic propaganda.Plenty of reasons to, to bend, spend to the truth for all kinds of purposes. Um, but the things that it has to say about the Norse and in particular things, it has to say about the north that aren't just, they're terrible, awful people, and we're great for having conquered them. Um, uh, I think reveal really important and interesting ideas about the relationship of the Irish and the Norse, and then the descendants, the Hibernian.The BI lingual, um, fusion cultures that, that thrived in the Viking settled towns in Ireland. Yeah, that's fascinating. So you're really getting a, you have a view of how the, the Celts and, uh, Irish, their imagination of the, of the north. And then the north says imagination [00:03:00] of the, of the Irish and the gales and the Celts from their perspective.And so you're kind of seeing it from the whole 360 view. Exactly. Exactly. Yeah. I am a historian. I am interested in, you know, straight political history. Um, but I think this, this cultural history, this cultural memory is also really worth, um, investigating and talking about the idea of, of what was, what was the mind map of, of a person about this other person in a pre-modern world?What are some of the frameworks you use? The. I understand that better. Well, um, sometimes it gets right down to data crunching about exactly what names are used, what the etymology of those names are, uh, where they first appear. And then in one context, um, sometimes it actually gets quite scientific, which is, which is funny because you know, my, my PhD friends in stem will, um, set something to run and then manipulate the data artistically to, to tell a [00:04:00] story, um, where that, whereas I'm doing.Spreadsheets of, of medieval Irish literature. And it's like, wait, how come? How come I'm the humanities? I'm in the easy, easy stuff. It's, it's not. Um, so, so there is some, some, you know, raw data collection and analysis in those ways. Um, other than that, honestly, it's, it's a lot of comparative literature and, um, uh, seeing.Stories animals tell, um, not that animals themselves are necessarily historically accurate, but they have a different purpose than this dynastic propaganda literature. Um, and then how it compares to things that are meant to be wholly fictional. Um, uh, but then even then the relationship of fiction to two histories is a bit more complicated than we have nowadays.Um, so, so it's. Uh, fun, interesting human studies. Um, and then I'm, I'm I have the privilege of working with, with these medieval Irish documents. Yeah. That's [00:05:00] fascinating because you're li you're combining art. It's a kind of an art to try and figure this out, but it's also, you're, you're folding in the science of really crunching how the tech analyzing these texts.That's fascinating. And now a word from our sponsors.Thank you. I think so. And I think, I think honestly, I think it's a privilege to be at this point in my PhD where I'm, I'm, you know, very tired of my project, but I'm S I'm still, you know, certain that it's, it's producing useful and interesting information, um, about. You know, the small-scale literally what the Irish said about the Norris, but then on the larger scale, how people communicate with and envision each other's outside of modern state systems.[00:06:00] Okay, so great question. Let's let's get things started now. Pretty much everything I have to say. There'll be one person who could jump up and say, well, actually, so this is going to be a general overview, not for intense rigorous academic analysis, but generally speaking normal. Meaning someone who speaks the Norse language that they themselves called, called Danish.
