Who were the Cathars?
The catholic church had many enemies in medieval Europe, but one of the greatest challenges to its power and authority came not from over-mighty kings, but from heretics. One particular group, a sect of dualists who rejected the old testament, the incarnation of Christ, and the trinity, presented a very real threat to Catholic orthodoxy - the Cathars.
These Cathars, or ‘Good Christians’ as they called themselves, spread rapidly throughout the south of France in the 12th Century, quickly becoming an important part of the social fabric of the Languedoc. When the Papacy, led by Pope Innocent III, was finally roused to action, it unleashed a tidal wave of persecution and violence which perman...

Who were the Phoenicians?

Note: the purple areas displayed on the larger map of the mediterranean are intended to show areas of Phoenician influence, and areas in which the Phoenicians conducted the majority of their trade. I realise now that it may look a little like a traditional 'empire', which is not the intention! Usually noted for their thalassocratic state - that is, a state with a primarily maritime empire - the...
Who were the Picts?

The term ‘Dark Ages’, while really intended to refer to the supposed cultural, economic and social decline of Europe in the centuries following the fall of the Roman Empire in the West, is quite apt in another sense - the period can be described as ‘Dark’ because, for certain geographical areas, it is rather difficult to work out what exactly was going on. It was into this slightly mysterious p...
Who were the Suebi?

Imperial Rome - a familiar topic, which many of us apparently think about with great regularity. The empire is well known to us, and well defined: However, what is less clear to us is the world beyond Rome’s borders, particularly in those regions where there lived so called uncivilised ‘barbarians’. One name can be seen with great regularity in the Roman sources concerning these lands: Suebi. I...
Who were the Pechenegs?
Просмотров 138 тыс.7 месяцев назад
The medieval Eurasian steppe is a rather confusing place, for several reasons. The first, is that it played host to an ever shifting patchwork of nomadic and semi-nomadic peoples, whose various wars precipitated large-scale migrations at various points. Another, is that these peoples, by and large, left very little (if anything) by way of written sources by which we can identify them. The Peche...
The Evolution of CONSTANTINOPLE
Просмотров 13 тыс.10 месяцев назад
I could never find a video which gave a concise overview of the city of Constantinople itself, which might explain how its physical structure bloomed in the early medieval period, how it developed over the successive centuries, and how it waned before the final defeat of the Byzantine Empire in the 15th Century. This video is an attempt to do just that. Naturally, a video of this length could n...
Nestor Makhno: Anarchist, Revolutionary, Legendary Ukrainian
Просмотров 12 тыс.Год назад
The aftermath of the Russian Revolution was a chaotic and bloody time - from 1917 until 1922, civil war consumed the former Russian Empire, as competing factions vied for power. One of the lesser known participants was a movement of Anarcho-communists who came to exert control over vast areas of southern Ukraine, led by a man named Nestor Makhno. This Ukrainian revolutionary, born into a family...

How Byzantine Monks Stole Silkworms From China
Просмотров 5 тыс.2 года назад
The medieval Byzantine Empire was well known for its production and use of luxurious silk, but until the mid-6th century Byzantine artisans were forced to import raw silk from China - an arduous journey which made silk incredibly expensive. It was during the reign of Justinian that the Byzantines ended the Chinese monopoly, and began to produce their own raw silk - the tale is a semi-legendary ...
How Was Female Sanctity Constructed In Late Antiquity?
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.2 года назад
Saint Genevieve’s gender had a marked effect on the way her sanctity was displayed in her hagiography (hagiography is a biography of a saint), particularly when we consider contemporary male saints and their Vita. (vita is latin for life, and forms the title of most medieval hagiographies - for example, ‘vita genovefa). It is important to first note the context of late antique female sanctity -...
What Impact Did The Imperial Court Have On Byzantine Art?
Просмотров 3 тыс.2 года назад
The Macedonian dynasty of emperors oversaw something of an artistic revival in the Byzantine empire, which some have even branded as a ‘renaissance’ for its ‘new range of expression and an increasing technical virtuosity’. Use of the term ‘renaissance’ immediately invites comparisons to the later Italian renaissance and whether or not this period of Byzantine art is worthy of such a comparison ...
What role did the Pechenegs play in Byzantine foreign relations?
Просмотров 10 тыс.2 года назад
The Pechenegs, a group of steppe nomads who came to prominence in eastern Europe in the 9th and 10th centuries, were crucial to the balance of power in the northern Byzantine world. The image that contemporaneous sources give us is of a fierce and dangerous warrior-people, formidable in battle and feared and respected by their neighbours in equal measure. Indeed, both the Rus princes and the By...
The Khazars - Jewish Turkic Nomads Of The Eurasian Steppe

The Eurasian steppe has been a fractious region throughout much of history, but it has also given rise to some of the largest and most powerful political empires ever known. The early medieval period was no exception, as an endless variety of tribes and nations struggled to assert their dominion over the vast plains and grasslands. Against this backdrop, the Khazars emerged north of the Black a...
The Byzantine Economy Explained (Briefly)

The Byzantine Empire inherited an incredibly advanced economy from the Roman past, complete with a functioning bureaucracy, tax collection systems and wide ranging trade links.

The Christianisation of Anglo Saxon England
This channel has some really high quality content.
I think you should use some more modern sources. There's a lot of historical debate of whether Cathars were really a strict religious group, and pretty much all historians believe there was no church structure. (I can't be bothered to find sources rn soz)
Heresy was not a major enemy of the church/papacy, it was the Holy Roman Emperor, and heresy was a front used against him and those who would restrict church power.
So much is good about your great young channel. I haven't had any problems with being shadowbanned here yet, but I have had huge problems almost everywhere else. By auto-deleting comments and replies that contain random words, which is the way the so-called shadowban works, even perfectly innocent comments end up being deleted. This has happened to me hundreds of times! And I am starting to become really angry about it! Sometimes I've written really long and involved posts, in order to help people, but I sometimes forget to copy them to Clipboard. As a result, they have often been deleted, after I spent an hour or 2 writing and editing it! So you can see how a person would get upset! It seems like RUclips must be putting very heavy pressure on channels to create extensive lists of words to ban, because suddenly there is very little that you can say. This is very unfair, and so is the fact that the viewers and writers of posts are being given no explanation at all. 99.99% of us don't even know that this program has been instituted. All they know is that for no reason at all most of their comments are disappearing. It's just yet another way to suppress our opinions, another extremely draconian measure to shut us up in the CRUELEST way possible! Almost nobody knows that it's the channels that are doing this. They think it is RUclips. But when millions of angry viewers do realize that their favorite channels are doing this to them on purpose, they will be outraged! At that point, who knows how they will react. There are ways to sabotage channels. So I beg you, please don't take part in this massive effort to silence people that the fascists of RUclips have imposed on us.
I'll admit to not having a very high opinion of gnostics in general, but damn, nobody deserves to suffer such persecution and violence. Trully chilling.
Could Phoenicians be the sea people’s? Or at least the ancestors of the sea peoples I think highly possible.

I always failed to see where exactly did Jesus preached about killing of heretics....

Canaanite? No. Sea People.
They were a dead end. No marriage, no parental relations, NO CHILDREN. A doomsday cult of extinction. And a violation of God's command : Be fruitful and multiply.

A mixture of everything
How could fiction ever equal historical record? Heretics, geography, culture, all lived out with common blood, sweat, and iron like vanity.
the Phoenicians , which obviously didn't called themselves as such( the Greeks ascribe that name to them ) , were Hebrews, not Israelites but Hebrews. they spoke ancient Hebrew dialect. and wrote in the ancient Hebrew alphabet not Aramaic . pretty simple their proximity to the Israelites north tribes, and the accounts in the bible tells us they had extensive trade and marital connections with the Israelites as a whole. you some how exclude those facts entirely, god forbid we will give the credit to the Hebrews...Beirut in Lebanon original name is Be'erot which is Hebrew for 'wells' and so is in "Phoenician'" , Carthage original name is KERET-HADASH which also in Hebrew, the new-city. the truth is your face but you are blind to see it .
there is something evil about religions
right thats why in terms of pure bloodshed the 20th century has the most bodies by far in the name of “ousting religion”
Well narrated and produced. Thanks.
Do you know about the Bosnian Church? It is a church, not Bogomils, nor Cathars, nor Patarens... Know as Good Bosnians... Similar to Cathars...
P.S. Great video. Subscribed.
Excellent! thank you for such a quality video. From my understanding, the name Cathar derives from the name of the daughter of the earthy Jesus, Catharine, who lived in the south of France.
O so now I know why the Pope sends me to France in ck3

All religions are evil ,they are man made so a good percentage of people are deluded and evil
I name Pope Innocence III as a mass murderer.
This is a brilliant video - well-researched, clearly organized, and concisely delivered. Plaudits from a new subscriber!
Actually, the consolumentum is no different than the catholic act of contrition. My plan b.
No dioses, ni amos
One of the best videos on my people i have seen. Excellent work
The parallels between this and the communist purges are just crazy. I think it's just part of human nature, doesn't really matter what religious or ideological dressing you wrap it with. Authoritarian power will not tolerate dissent, period.
Imagine you say “nah I don’t really believe in the same god as you” and you get shot by a tank
They were saying that your body is evil, that childbearing is evil, and that creation is evil.
Good evening
What you think about comes about. The Cathers got exactly what they believed the world was.
As soon as I saw the title of this, only one word came to my mind "The Punic Wars"!
The Cathars won. They escaped the evil world devised by the Demiurge, to enjoy the spiritual bliss of Heaven, or the nothingness of oblivion. They are no longer a part of this world. If only the Catholics themselves, not to mention the Protestants, Jews & Muslims, could be so spiritual as to politely stop existing.
There's a growing questioning of the entire narrative concerning the Albigensians ("Cathar" is a more recent term) as nearly everything "known" about their beliefs comes from their Catholic opponents. It is also important to see that the Catholic Church had undergone significant changes in the 11th century under Pope Gregory VII, and it is quite possible that these Albigensians were traditional Christians who had mainly not moved along with those reforms. They were certainly unhappy about the growing luxury and the centralisation of power in the Catholic church and, like Waldensians and the Franciscans, mainly practiced asceticism and sought to ensure that vernacular preaching occurred. The links with Bogomils are not strongly evidenced, either.
nah
You are correct. I would recommend Dr. Peter S. Ruckman's History of the New Testament Church Volume 1, as it undergoes church history acknowledging Catholic bias (and taking bias against them) if you'd like that
@@silverstreettalks343 Origin of Catharism was the Paulician heresy in Iraq, then the Bogomils in the Balkans, then to southern France and northern Italy.
@@fantasia55 That has been the accepted view for a long time -- certainly what I learnt in church history -- but it is questionable, in large part because most of the evidence is from the adversaries of the Albigensians and quite a lot is fairly late.
Interesting. Tyre was governed by a pair of judges (Sufets)... In Hebrew, a judge is "Shofet". The book of Judges is translated as "Shoftim" is a collection of stories, essentially from a period when the Israelites were ruled by judges rather than kings, another period to which another biblical epic is dedicated to in the book of Kings. Biblical history is definitely my favorite.
The czar gave the defeated, Kazars a choice of one of the Abraham faiths
After the Romans left the early ancestors of the English helped protect the Celtic Brits against the Picts. They were given land in payment and eventually settled the entire of southern Britain. Giving birth to England. 'Angleland'.
I finally understand Cathars after watching like 3-4 different videos/podcasts on this.
Gnostics, the REAL Christians
Excellent video.
Got to love when I stumble upon a great history channel. Amazing video. You deserve more views.
This Khazar thing became a rallying cry of antisemites from every race. Genes disprove it. Whether this guy in the video is an antisemite, don't know. He doesn't seem like it. My dad liked this theory too before it was used to "prove" that "Jews are fake" and full of conspiracies. He just thought the Khazar's were smart and cool. But below, note the conspiracy theorists who never did care about facts. They care only about preserving their bigotry in despite facts.
Brilliant video on the Cathar's loved it. and of course well narrated too 👍 thanks for sharing 👍
This video just highlights how little we actually know about the Picts. Example - the narrator mispronounces Moray and Gaelic, yet we're expected to believe that they say about people who lived thousands of years ago.
Oh my- dude I hate this arrogant, subconsciously liberal trope that has been brainwashed into this piece of academia🤦🏼♂️ “this group wasn’t monoethnic” blah blah blah, like bro this is so annoying, Yes! The Picts were Homogenous. The Cossacks were largely homogenous. It’s like saying Frisian or Saxon isn’t ethnic, like dude. Y’all are so weird, why with this obsession with race that even when it’s painfully obviously, academia goes “well it would be stupid to just presume a group that largely spoke a similar language, wore the same clothes, prayed too the same gods, shared the same customs, food, and manners, and even say they come from the same person relative in ancient history- would just be dumb😂 they were obviously like us modern Americans, diverse!”
You can play as him now in ck3,
is Tom McKay?? from Kingdom Come Deliverance?
So many people here rooting for the Cathars, but think of the two times the Church failed to quench heresies, that lead to the rise of Islam and Protestantism: the ensuing Muslim Conquests as well as the 30 Years War completely overshadow the treatment of the Cathars. Should they've really risked a similar schism with all its bloody consequences?
Might I suggest the Guelph-Ghibelline conflict in Italy as a video topic?
such a good video
