The Persecuting Society: Religious Turmoil in Medieval and Early Modern England

This tumultuous time saw the rise of mysticism, the emergence of radical Protestant movements, and the implementation of severe measures against perceived heretics. This video explores spiritual exploration, political power, and societal control in the period and the long-term effects in both England and the US.

Great job! And thank you❤
Thank you, useful information ❤
Thanks, fun stuff! Unfortunately all the source links are broken, any advice for finding these graphics?
I thought Pog champ is someone who is a champion at pogs (circle card game/collectibles) am I wrong?
It is as you say, oh Socrates. How could it be otherwise?
Hmm. I literally agree with everything you said, but I believe maybe you're misinterpreting the concept of toxic masculinity. Because the idea is that the "baby masculinity" you described is a toxic trait in people. Personally I don't believe it to be "baby" in the sense that it must precede "adult masculinity" (for sake of metaphorical symmetry), but rather it's a form of toxic behavioral traits. There's no reason a boy would need to grow up behaving that way first in order to then become an empathic and openly vulnerable adult, right? There is also no reason a male can't be into whatever hobbies or interests may be associated with typical toxic masculinity while not actually just being a toxic person. The idea is that the "baby masculinity" is like you said someone who enlarges themselves, weapons, skulls, etc is just a lack of an alternative coping mechanism for their emotions. Boys, for many generations, were not taught emotional awareness and being able to name what they are feeling past a superficial level of "angry/frustrated". So the feeling threatened is because they aren't able to handle their emotions and deal with whatever the other individual has said or did and whatever emotions were generated within them because of it. Nowadays we have emotional acuity as a concept and everyone should always be working on being able to determine what they are feeling by name at any given moment. In summation, I believe toxic masculinity fits perfectly because it's just an objectively toxic personality trait to lack self awareness and empathy and behave as though one is better than others, which is found in males and in reality did define masculinity for a long time. As men collectively pull the eff up and learn how to feel (be vulnerable and empathic), we'll regain masculinity as being men who just are men without being toxic. It's that simple. Much love to you and yours. /Jon Bon
Thank you for thoughtful response, and I take your correction. I myself like a lot of things coded as masculine and aggressive-- strategy war games, shooters, heavy metal music among other things-- and these need not be linked to either immaturity or toxicity. It's precisely the inability to handle emotion, and beyond that, to experience emotion as dangerous, as threatening, that shuts down the capacity for vulnerability and compassion. You've given me an idea for a longer for video that talks about the centrality of compassion and vulnerability in medieval narrative of knightly virtue. I still think that "toxic masculinity" has problems rhetorically, because the association with danger and transgression are appealing to those leaning into contempt for vulnerability and empathy, who seek safety in static gender roles and fixed hierarchies.
The subjunctive: "I believe that he will come." Does it come within the subjunctive's remit? I thought only the negative, "I do not believe that they would come," would qualify. Thanks!
It depends on the language. In modern romance languages, verbs of belief or opinion in the main clause often trigger the subjunctive, regardless of whether the main clause is affirmative or negative, e.g. Spanish "Creo que venga." In Latin, the choice between indicative and subjective in indirect statements after verbs of believing/thinking carries a subtle distinction about the level of certainty or commitment to the truth of the statement.
@@IohannesRhetor I thought it was "Creo que él vendrá" or, in its negative "No creo que él venga" Perhaps I need to revise my sequence of tenses and the WEIRDO. ⇒ The acronym WEIRDO stands for Wishes, Emotions, Impersonal Expressions, Recommendations, Doubt/Denial, and Ojalá, which are all situations in which you're likely to use the subjunctive. Thanks
@@elche7367 look, I'm not fluent in Spanish, and idioms may vary over time and from country to country. Haven't researched it thoroughly.
@@IohannesRhetor idiom? We aren't talking about idioms. We are talking about the remit of the subjunctive mood. Idioms are sayings like Break a leg and butterflies in the stomach, which might not work in Castillian Spanish. Doubt is sufficient to trigger the present subjunctive Dudo que tu sepas espanol muy bien. Thanks
meant to say idiomatic usage, not idioms, which is different. I've looked it into more, and the subjunctive usage describe here does apply commonly in Italian, but not Spanish. Thank you for the correction.

The fall of Taco Bell is truly a tragedy as great as the fall of Rome.
Couldn’t agree more
The only thing I was robbing myself of while writing my research paper was an abundance of panic attacks. I still did the research and obviously edited the text, but none of the writing part would have brought me joy, aside from the moment when I would’ve been finished. Essays are still interesting to write though
Fugly is another portmanteau ;)
My favorite evolution of this is by the channel sucker pinch, called portmantout.

Very funny words
Excuse me Sir, My goals are to become an English Professor...i would like to know wat books are to be read, like Charles Dickens, Willian Shakesphere...pls? i want to succeed my goal. I need your guidens
Pursue the topics that interest you most, the ones that drive your curiosity and imagination. And yes, read broadly and deeply, whether it's the classics or contemporary literature, but let your reading be guided by your pleasure and curiosity more than the prestige or cultural value you perceive to be attached to particular works or authors.
It has NOTHING to do with Canadians doing it first!!!
Seem a little worked up there, buddy
Thanks pro
Thank you soooooo much this is so so so helpful. Im about to do masters in English after a year and i want to educate myself more. So this is SO helpful, it’s really appreciated, please know that. I always play your videos when i go back from work in the car so i could benefit out of my time as much as possible. You should consider makeing a video on how to do a literary research next! How to do it practically?
That's a great idea! I'm teaching an MA course on research methods right now. Glad you enjoy.
@@IohannesRhetorwell, ill be praying that you will post a video about doing literary research one day! 😂
Thanks for the analysis, it really helped me a lot but my question goes thus, what is Frye’s take on the Trickster figure?
the trickster is associated with the giant-killer, and also the psychopomp. not sure the trickster is as important to Frye as Jung?
This guy is just making things up to sound smart. He can use his own definition or everyone else's definition; either way, to this explanation of "oof" I say, "Oof!"
Wrong! I'm making things up to sound dumb!
@@IohannesRhetor Mission accomplished.
Only in the teacher student setting of grading and correcting, unless it’s written on the door or the classroom wall,, bc then it means you can’t wear a hat in this teachers classroom
Good game🎉

Subbed! Great talk.
Hey I'm from suda video keep up the good work I actually like the video
I want to ask you about a grammar question, how can I contact you? Please
You can email me at iohannesrhetor@gmail.com
Good video
Fake it until you make it
Hi Profesor Newman! I just found you through Suda's videos and I really liked your content. Language it's really interesting to me as a Graphic design student who has come to enjoy Semiotics and Communication. This video, specifically, is very nice because I also experienced "future shock", though I'd like to think we'll be ok despite generative AIs ever growing roll in our lives.
Curious: Do the affixed morphenes in agglutinative languages get added in fixed predetermined orders, or can they be affixed in any order the speaker? Is order important for some affixes and not others?
Okay, I looked into it. In agglutinative languages, the order of affixed morphemes is typically fixed and predetermined, rather than being freely arranged by the speaker. Position indicates syntactic function.
@@IohannesRhetor Thank you.
Hi! On your second slide about the Norman Conquest, you wrote that Edward wins the Battle of Stamford Bridge, but isn't it Harold? :)
Yes! It was Harold II Godwinson against Harald Hardrada! I appreciate the correction. My mentor once said a scholar stands first to stand corrected.
@@IohannesRhetor Oh it was more a question than a correction ahah, I’m just a simple student - I’m actually happy because it means I understood everything correctly! 😊 Your video is so helpful and well explained, thanks for uploading it, really; and as a French person, I laughed so much when you described what the Vikings might start to do in Normandy… This would be so accurate 😂
haha
😂?
Thanks for such an interesting video! I'm a biochemistry phd, so this is a completely different domain for me - but I'm also English, so it was fun to hear all things England!
Thank you, this was very helpful. You might want to check out Harriet Raghunathan’s introduction/inputs on the same.
Thank you for this ✨
Sorry prof. I slept midway through
Hello, is there another professor you know of who has a different or similar opinion recorded? Nice video, thank you.
There's some folks on LinkedIn such as Jason Gulya, bit none on RUclips that I know of. I'm actually not so sure is stand by this video anymore completely, inasmuch as I really a feel a student should learn these skills the old fashioned way before they can use AI responsibly and effectively.
By skills, I mean things like ideation and outlining.
Hi
Hello!
you know you're THE person when he replies to your "hi" comment and nobody else's
Thanks.Hope to see more.
I promise my long one on Foucault and Literary Studies will be out before the end of July!

This is fun tbh
Well worth a watch indeed, I've always wondered what a mystery play was... Nice to hear the correct pronunciation of 'Southwark' as well, I was going to compliment you on your research but it sounds like you picked up the right way to say it on site ;)
I've written several articles on the medieval poet John Gower who is entombed in Southwark Cathedral. I had my pronunciation corrected many years ago! I'm glad you enjoyed.
I can see that your target audience is students, but I must say - this video is great and easy to follow despite educational status. I am not yet in uni, finishing my A-Levels that are not even literature related, yet I enjoyed this video. Thank you for providing great free videos online.
Coming from a history fan, but I do love literature focus in this video.
