Phillip Schofield

Phillip Schofield, a professor of medieval economic history, and Neslihan Şenocak, a specialist in religious history, dive into life during the Middle Ages. They discuss the contrasting daily realities of peasants and artisans, the social dynamics shaped by guilds, and the heavy influence of religion. The conversation also touches on communal justice, health practices amid the bubonic plague, and the nostalgic allure of simpler times, all while humorously reflecting on modern life's complexities.
