Yalla Culture - Episode 31 - The Oppressed Age
Hello and welcome to episode 31 of Yalla Thaqafa. I am very happy that the listening audience continues to grow steadily despite the hiatus from the podcast. I am eager to know more about the statistics of Fatma Anan's listeners, but unfortunately I have to pay a subscription larger than snakes to access it. However, this does not stop me from feeling a bit proud of Yalla Thaqafa podcast, which has no sponsors and relies solely on personal efforts. Today's episode is titled "The Middle Ages", and I want to delve deeper into historical eras because it's hard to forget the cultural and historical content of Christianity. Starting from the Middle Ages, I found myself diving into a sea of information. In today's episode, we will discuss why the Middle Ages are named so and how it influenced European culture. This period marked the entrance of Islam, expansion, and influence of the Islamic state into Europe, leading to a literary and musical renaissance. Join me as I explore the misunderstood era of the Middle Ages and provide insights from various research materials.
