Thank you. Well done great channel.

Interesting 🤔

The editing and theme is great, but maybe your accent is throwing people back. You commit some spelling mistakes and your voice is unattractive. I don't pretend to hate on you, I just wanna let you know this problem so you are able to fix it

Hellooo

Reminds me of Dr. Lynne Kelly’s research into ancient memory methods

Your videos are very educative. Exposes one to many things. Thank you. Flying in a plane that is faster than sound, sounds flattering but also scary. Wonder how the challenge of cost will be tackled because traveling with the regular plane is expensive as it is with the present economy.

Impressive. The idea behind the innovation of the Concorde is totally unmatched

The idea of a supersonic plane is quite a great one hoping the effect it causes to the atmosphere in terms of emission of dangerous gases can be solved

A lot of the monks kept gardens. Rabbits and snails eat the gardens, cats and dogs help fight them. But there are always more snails and rabbits!

There is truly so much that is lost to us and we will never be able to understand. But the mystery has its own beauty. My favourie enigmatic motive is The Green Man, also known as a foliate head. It is found in medieval architecture.

The universe doesn’t exist, it’s all just an elaborate simulation created by supernatural entities for the purpose of being a testing ground for intelligent beings.

I came here after watching your marginalia video which I love, by the way. Thank you for this wonderful look at how close this man was in his predictions.

I remember as a child seeing the Egyptian head rests and I couldn't understand how they could use them as pillows. I had no idea there was such history behind something I think of as so simple and take for granted.

2:14 was obviously drawn by a fifteen year old illuminator.

Sorry, but i couldn’t keep listening through the clicks.

Human Memory is Fallible. Hold my Quoran.

'The Name Of The Rose' footage seemed very apt here 👌

It's just medieval memes

Thank you.

Great video! I've been sketching weird Medieval art lately as part of a drawing club and am glad to learn more about the marginalia.

I get It, books need Guterburg

I subscribed after watching your Marginalia video. I was impressed by your analysis of the mindset of the doodling scribes. Good luck with the channel, I will be cheering for your success.

4:05 That eye creature resembles a Japanese youkai called “shirime”. Some things are universal, like eye-butt monsters.

Excellent video thanks for making this ❤

Thank you for this very interesting analysis. The snail imagery is fascinating.

THE CLICKING!! WHY?!

I had heard of the Voynich Manuscript before today, but watching your video is the first time I've seen a detailed analysis of it. And as I watched, little questions kept creeping in - • When the manuscript was carbon-dated, I'm assuming that the ink was also analyzed for authenticity. But even if these things are correct, could it still be a wild, elaborate hoax? • I don't see any punctuation marks in the text, and very few squiggles that might be capital letters. Is this significant? • Did Marci, Emperor Rudolph, or John Dee mention anywhere in their writings that the manuscript was a mystery to them? Or is it possible that they might have understood any of the manuscript? These boys were two hundred years closer to the early 15th Century than we are. • I've seen other illuminated manuscripts from Medieval times, and the illustrations are as exquisite as the writing. In Voynich, the penmanship is beautiful but the drawings look like something I would do, and they call me "graphically challenged" around here. Could this mean that the manuscript was an project taken on by one solitary person, and not part of an effort of a group, like the Church or some noble family? • So a few of the plants look a little bit like flora of the real world. Coincidence, yes? The more I look at the Voynich Manuscript, the more questions will show up in my head. Thanks for listening!

Don't forget about complaints! From marginalia we know that medieval scribes suffered from the cold, bad backs, aching hands, ink that was too runny or not runny enough, other scribes making too much noise....and on and on. Also, for some less known MS the artwork is more or less on the same level as the average 2nd grader.

Marginals were a way to hide not just social, religious and political commentaries, but also Alchemical symbols. Marginals are also rooted in the Flemish school of art. Compare the works of Hieronymus Bosch with marginals. Bosch and other Flemish painters did the same doodles and other sketches.

I enjoyed this video and have subscribed. Medieval marginalia are fascinating - I have read and recommend the book about it that you mention. I am fascinatednot only because of their whimsicality and references to the history and culture of the time but also because of their mystery. You can almost see the scribe at work and look at what he made, but you cannot really know what he was trying to express. That snail meme, snails fighting knights or menacing people or animals, is a great example. The theories you mention, especially the heresy one, are reasonable and may even be true, but we don’t really know. The artists who drew these images must have believed anyone who looked at the book would understand what they referred to, but the world has moved on to other symbols during the centuries that separate us. We have many human things in common with those artists, but there is such a gulf between us. I wonder, even if we learned the language they spoke, what trying to converse with them would be like.. There is so much that both they and we take for granted as a basis for communication that would be missing..

Here because of Pentiment and the Name of The Rose. Love that you're using footage from the movie, it's epic!

Surely the snail was an image of sloth at that time? Or decay, corruption?

Where did you get the video clips of the medeival scriptors?

As a writer, I love learning abt the history of art. Growing up religious, I never really noticed the quirky drawings. Mostly bc the Catholic books that I used never had them; Catholics weren’t really that fun. But my fave has to be either the hybrid humanoid drawings or the painting with the big head, with the legs attached. It’s nice to know that medieval ppl liked to have fun 😂

I so love the marvelous and often funny marginalia illustrations in medieval scrolls and books. The quality of the art - whether funny or serious - was what first made question the accuracy of the term the “ Dark Ages.” The qualities ascribed to various animals adds another level.

After a while, an artist has nothing to prove to the world of his/her skills, so he/she will paint whatever. Goya though is a testament of the stages of grief towards life. His first works were full of life and towards the black paintings he gave up on society seeing how nasty it is (his paintings show how sick the world is) and towards the end he is at peace and acceptance (the ladys' gaze is that of indifference and "I could careless"). Remember, grief is never linear, so it can start from acceptance to anger to negotiating back to acceptance.

Fun video! I absolutely love your voice. So beautiful!

I was going to suggest the same...after about a minute of clicks I was anticipating each one... it's a minor thing, but doing away with the click transitions would improve the video...

Great amateur video! Thanks! I might just suggest removing the clicking sounds though. Glad to have learned the word marginalia!

I’m going back to my high school and tell my teacher my “senseless doodles” on my notes are a medieval tradition being passed on to me.

What I learned from books and documentaries on the subject is that the more religious the book the more outlandish and funny the pictures within are. Medieval people had a sense of humor that we can still get and understand today. Their favorite subject was making fun of monks. If alive today, these Medieval folks would make fun of the far-right far more than the left, though both extremes would be consider fair game to poke fun at. Making fun of politics has always been a universal favorite pass time for most cultures.

Can't believe Im the first one here? Fun, playful, and Illuminating! Thank You

Interesting. Would like to see the video on the first and last buildings.

Okay how are we defining “first painting” because these are definitely not the first thing they ever painted.

Not for me, try an AI narration voice!

luvit,,,,Great job.✌💯

Haha great video!

Wonder if tea would exist if the accident didn’t happen, lol.

lol, interesting. First time hearing these historical stories. Thank you

I have never thought of how these things came to be, I am happy to learn from you once again
