  • 15th century Florence was the epitome of a Renaissance city and home to some of the greatest philosophers, inventors and artists that have ever lived. A place full of new ideas, free thinking and beauty and also home to two families with tremendous wealth and power, the Pazzi’s and the Medici’s.
    On Easter Sunday 26th April 1478, a group of conspirators from the Pazzi family decided it would really like to destroy the Medici family and would start by murdering its two leaders Giuliano and Lorenzo. Of all the places for this vicious attack to take place it was the beautiful Florentine Cathedral during High Mass that was chosen and what followed was a bloodbath. Welcome to Medieval Madness.

    Thanks for covering this important event in Italian Renaissance history. I went down in Italian Renaissance wormhole last winter. It started with a book written by Eleanor Herman call murder in the Garden of God. It took me backwards and forwards and all over the place. I think my favorite was the story about Catherina Sforza the Tigress who married one of the Rairios. Finally I ended up reading a book about the women of Florence Italy

    Correction: It was actually Giuliano Medici who became sick the day of the lunch, not one of the conspirators. They wanted to lure the two brothers outside of Florence to a nearby town called Fiesole. This is why they decided to attempt the assassination at mass instead. They wanted both brothers killed at the same time, not just Lorenzo.

    Can you do a video on where all those medieval legends and tales in nameless countries that we read about come from and the literary implications? They feel like a fever dream, and some don't seem to match up with any country, so it's like looking into another world, but I don't know where they come from and I remember a lot from my childhood. Did a trend start in the 1700's or something, and/or why were the stories designed the way they were, why all the prophecies and what inspired them, what influenced the creatures, social cultures in the fiction, and aesthetic, what were the general cultural inspirations and influences, etc.?
