Rossoblù 🟥🟦 for #fotovorschlag "Rückansicht" / "Rear view"

Bologna FC 1909 (football club)'s colours are red and blue or rossoblù. So, to find two people wearing the colours with the towers in the background was like getting a delicious plate of tortellini in brodo from Bulåggna herself! ♥️💙
(But it has to be gluten free because I am not one of God's favourites)

"A resurgence of #medieval anti-#Talmud propaganda is spreading rapidly across #conservative #socialmedia, according to scholars and #Jewish educators tracking #online #antisemitism. Influencers with millions of followers are amplifying accusations that Jewish #religious texts endorse immoral or criminal behavior, claims #historians say were fabricated centuries ago and repeatedly disproven.

Among the most visible examples, political commentator #CandaceOwens recently cited The #Talmudic #Jew, a 1871 #German pamphlet authored by #AugustRohling."

"You’ve probably heard of #ThomasAquinas, a prominent #medieval #scholar who combined #Christian #theology and #Greek #philosophy.

However, you may not be familiar with the renowned #Jewish scholar #MosesMaimonides, whose ideas significantly influenced Aquinas’s thought.

In the new #book, “Moses #Maimonides: A Very Short Introduction,” #RossBrann, a #professor of Jewish Studies at #Cornell #University, introduces Maimonides to a new generation.

Maimonides, also known as #Rambam, was a Jewish philosopher, #rabbinic scholar and renowned physician in the medieval #Islamic kingdoms, which are now part of modern-day #Spain. His life was marked by rigorous education, #persecution, #exile, and a commitment to serving both kings and the people.

Maimonides played a crucial role in helping his Jewish #diasporic community survive the hardships of the #Almohad #Caliphate, which forced Jews to choose between #converting to #Islam, relocating, or death."

Hey, my name is Niek, and I am a newbie, when it comes to Mastodon or social media in general. By engaging with this platform, I hope to find more individuals who share similar interests. In layman’s terms, I am somebody who loves to talk about medieval manuscripts and her magnificent languages, modern-day dictionaries and etymologies, almost all genres of English literature (but a massive Gothic fan and author) and world history! #introduction #history #medieval

Action packed 1st article of the Papal year! 🥳

"As #Christianity adopted the #Julian and later #Gregorian #calendars, reformed by #PopeGregory XIII in 1582, #January1st became entrenched as the civil new year in #Christian lands.

This shift encouraged #antiSemitic sentiments, with the date often reserved for acts of violence against #Jewish communities.

Throughout #medieval #Europe, #NewYear's Day saw #synagogue burnings, the destruction of Jewish books, public tortures, and murders. These acts were not isolated; they formed part of broader campaigns where Christian #holidays, including #Christmas and #NewYears, triggered #pogroms in #EasternEurope. Jewish families would hide, avoiding #Torah study or loud gatherings to evade detection on these days.

One of the most infamous chapters unfolded under #Pope #GregoryXIII, whose decrees on January 1st targeted #Roman #Jews with ruthless precision. On January 1, 1577, #Gregory mandated that all #RomanJews..."

Anglo-Saxon gold-and-garnet hoard discovered in England reveals early medieval jewelry and ritual practices

A set of striking Anglo-Saxon gold-and-garnet ornaments discovered on a hillside in eastern England is providing archaeologists with new views on the circulation, reuse, and sometimes deliberate removal from use of high-status jewelry during the early medieval period...

In the Middle Ages, certain periods, groups or social activities were specially protected by declaring states of peace. These states of peace were both temporary and locally limited, for example at Christmas. (4/)

"#Researchers in #Israel are hoping to make new discoveries about #Jewish #history by loading a digital database of #manuscripts stretching back a thousand years into a new #transcription tool that uses #artificialintelligence.

The #Cairo #Geniza, the biggest collection of #medieval Jewish documents in the world, has been the object of countless hours of study by #scholars for more than a century but only a fraction of its over 400,000 documents have been thoroughly researched.

Although the entire collection has already been digitized and is available online in the form of images, most of its items have not been catalogued, many are disordered fragments from longer documents, and only around a tenth have transcriptions.

By training an #AI model to read and transcribe the old texts, researchers will now be able to access and analyse the whole collection far more quickly, cross referencing names or words and assembling fragments into fuller documents."

Guten Morgen und einen erholsamen #SilentSunday allerseits 😀 👋

Heute die pittoreske Burgruine Schadeck - das Schwalbennest - oberhalb des Neckars bei Neckarsteinach. Die Burg wurde um 1230 von Ulrich II. aus der Familie der Landschad von Steinach erbaut; er war ein Enkel des Minnesängers Bligger von Steinach.

I'm getting desperate so am turning to the Fedi for help. Boosts will be appreciated.

I really need to find a private tutor of East Syriac. I do know Classical Arabic which I've heard helps, but can't find any sources or courses.

An article is examining medieval inventions that we can't duplicate. For example Greek Fire, the effects of this was recorded but as it was a state secret the recipe for it was never written down. Although educated guesses can be made the exact recipe remains unknown. Technology used to make Damascene Steel is also unknown, again modern steel of similar strength can be made but the process has been lost over time.medievalists.net/2025/10/medie…
