Hey Patrons! Today's HIST101 is a podcast I did w/ Medieval Art Matters. I discuss 7th/8th cent. Hadrian, his legacy & we talk race in the Euro Middle Ages. Featuring @NicoDeLuna_'s fab work. Extra reading by me, @erik_kaars & @Elysabethgrace. Join me at https://t.co/R9diD9xL3f https://t.co/cVVoMELIil

Remember when @NicoDeLuna_ made me this amazing image of the 7th/early 8th century abbot Hadrian of Canterbury? Well they've updated Hadrian who's a little more grey from spending time in England. Anyway, @NicoDeLuna_ has opened commissions so get them to make something for you! https://t.co/vIJtEFEmqo

Do you all know abt the mixed-race knight from Arthur's court named Feirefiz? He first appeared in the 12th c./early 13th c. poem "Parzival" by German poet/knight Wolfram von Eschenbach. Feirefiz's story is cool, as is his depiction now in modern fan art/RPG. 1/
