Dr. Eleanor Janega, a medieval history expert, invites Dr. Fraser McNair, who translated the remarkable Visions of Flothilde. They discuss the harrowing experiences of 10th-century French peasants, particularly a young girl named Flothilde, whose vivid visions reflect the violent turmoil around her. The conversation reveals how Christianization impacted local communities and explores the often-ignored suffering of the lower class. They also delve into how vivid dreams intertwined with spiritual and sociopolitical conflicts in medieval society.
