Welcome to the Middle Ages — a cruel and joyful epoch when people fervently prayed and killed, feasted and fasted, sinned and repented.
A time of fanatics dying for the Christian faith in the Crusades, and hypocrites calling beavers fish so...
they could be eaten on fasting days.
In this book, the author will tell how in the Middle Ages people fell in love and indulged in debauchery, bathed and took precautions, and drew genitalia on the walls of churches.
Moreover, readers will learn about the age at which people got married, how they lived without baths, what conjugal duty meant, why "prostitute" is better than "whore", and even find out what led to the collapse of the accusation of witchcraft against Joan of Arc.
