Hope you’re having a great afternoon – we’re enjoying a cup of tea here after finishing all the language episodes for March!

Now we’ll get back to the Ancient World, Dante’s Comedy, and the other studies. We’ve just sent off some emails – and getting back on track!

Sunday Coffee

Posted on February 21, 2021 by admin

Good morning! 😊🌇☕️

We’re now at page 225 of 280 in the “Age of Paradise”, just one chapter left about the period from 900-1054 AD. But the first “mini-schism” had already happened with Pope Nicholas in 863, excommunicating the Patriarch of Constantinople St. Photios. In many ways further amplifying the division between the East and West that was already brewing between the Frankish and the Byzantine Empires.

Also, the ongoing Purgatory Podcast is suddenly moving a lot! After the first month there is a big spike in the downloads! 🎉😊

The Eastern Empire, and Charlemagne

Posted on February 20, 2021 by admin

The book keeps getting better and better!

Several big important events between the Fall of the Western Empire by the Visigoth Alaric in 410AD and the explosion of the Renaissance in the 14 hundreds are starting to fall into place. After the increasingly “Greek” Eastern Empire, and the split that happened when Pope Leo III crowned the Frankish King Charlemagne Emperor in Rome in the year 800 AD, a new era in European History began!
