The Disgusting Truth About Medieval Love — Dark History of Romance and Rot

Описание: The Disgusting Truth About Medieval Love — Dark History of Romance and Rot

Forget poems, roses, and fairy tale romance. In the Middle Ages, love was not beauty — it was blood, contracts, stench, disease, and grotesque rituals.
Between arranged marriages, “love potions” brewed with horrifying ingredients, and the twisted ideals sung by troubadours, medieval love was anything but romantic. It was possessive, transactional, and often lethal.
In this episode of History Rested, discover:

• The horrifying rituals medieval people called “love”
• Why marriage was often a mask for power and control
• How love in the Dark Ages carried disease, death, and disgust
