The Middle Ages gave us one of the longest-lasting institutions of education: the university. And where there are universities, there are sure to be students sowing chaos and destruction. Olivia and Aran are joined by a special guest, Joe Mason, as they explore the medieval origins of universities and take a look at the lives and activities of those who studied at them. Also discussed are the dangers of tennis, the risks of kidnapping a bishop, and wrong way to behave in a tavern.For more information about some of what we discuss, check out:The Life of Medieval Students as Illustrated by their Lettershttps://www.jstor.org/stable/1832500Student power in medieval universitieshttps://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/handle/2027.42/89561/j.2164-4918.1968.tb03142.x.pdf?sequence=1Sporting and Recreational Activities of Students in the Medieval Universitieshttps://www.medievalists.net/2010/07/sporting-and-recreational-activities-of-students-in-the-medieval-universities/Medieval murder mapshttps://medievalmurdermap.co.uk/
