Everything Everywhere Daily - Trial By Combat (Encore)

In the TV series Game of Thrones, there were four different seasons where disputes were determined with trial by combat. 

As fictional as the Game of Thrones universe is, the idea of resolving legal disputes by fighting, sometimes to the death, was historically accurate. 

For centuries, trial by combat was a legitimate option for conflict resolution, and according to some theories, it might still technically exist. 

Learn more about trial by combat and how it was actually conducted on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NBN Book of the Day - Elizabeth Eva Leach, “Medieval Sex Lives: The Sounds of Courtly Intimacy on the Francophone Borders” (Cornell UP, 2023)

How was music important to medieval society? In Medieval Sex Lives:The Sounds of Courtly Intimacy on the Francophone Borders (Cornell UP, 2023), Prof Elizabeth Eva Leach, a Professor of Music at the University of Oxford explores the history and content of the Douce 308 manuscript to tell the story of the cultural and sexual scripts that framed courtly life in the Medieval era. The book tells the long history of the idea of courtly love, as well as using contemporary theories and cultural practices to re-examine the songs and lyrics in the manuscript. A fascinating and absorbing read, the book will be of interest to humanities scholars and more widely to anyone interested in the history of music, sex, and sexuality. You can also find out more about the book here on Prof Leach’s blog.

Dave O'Brien is Professor of Cultural and Creative Industries, at the University of Manchester.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Questions and Answers: Volume 14

The month of January was named after the Roman god Janus who had two faces, one on each side of his head. 

Janus was the god of waging war and making peace. Of beginnings and endings, and of change and passages.

…and while there is no evidence to prove it, I’m pretty sure that Janus would have been the god of questions and answers.

Stay tuned while I answer listener questions on the 14 questions and answers installment of Everything Everywhere Daily.
