The ReMembering and ReEnchanting PodcastThe ReMembering and ReEnchanting PodcastEpisode 29 - The shift from "paganism" to Christianity in Northern Europe: A Conversation with Prof Carole CusackSend us a textProf Carole Cusack, a professor in Religious Studies at The University of Sydney, shares her research on the shift into Christianity and the loss of indigenous European traditions, which were then referred to as "pagan" traditions. We explore some of how Christianity was brought, sometimes violently,  to Europe, and the subsequent shifts in spiritual, cultural, political, and geographical imagination. This is immensely significant in understanding subsequent patterns of colonization and Christianization. 1:35 - Introduction to Prof Carole Cusack2:35 - What got you interested in the early period of medieval history?7:30...2023-07-281h 00ANGELA\'S SYMPOSIUM 📖 Academic Study on Witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, magick and the OccultANGELA'S SYMPOSIUM 📖 Academic Study on Witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, magick and the OccultInvented Religions & Magic with Prof Carole Cusack#religion #invented #popculture Prof Carole Cusack tackles Invented Religions, Provisional Beliefs, Magical Practices and Witchcraft in the contemporary Western world CONNECT & SUPPORT💖 - WEBSITE & NEWSLETTER 💌 https://drangelapuca.com/#newsletter - BECOME MY PATRON! 🎩 https://www.patreon.com/angelapuca - ONE-OFF DONATIONS 💰 https://paypal.me/angelasymposium - JOIN MEMBERSHIPS 👥 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPSbip_LX2AxbGeAQfLp-Ig/join - MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL https://www.youtube.com/@drangelapuca/featured - MY STORE 🛍 https://drangelapuca.com/store - MY MERCH 👕 https://drangelapuca.creator...2023-07-231h 12Words on WednesdayWords on WednesdayKing Henry VI with Dr Carole CusackKing Henry VI inherited the English throne aged 9 months, on the death of his father, the legendary Henry V and he inherited the French throne from his grandfather, Charles VI some months later. He was crowned as a boy in November 1429. Henry was simply not meant to be a ruler and his reign, during the  Wars of the Roses simply made the situation worse. His reign included imprisonment in there Tower of London and prolonged periods of madness. What a comparison to the orderly nature of the British monarchs today!2022-11-2200 minWords on WednesdayWords on WednesdayHalloween with Professor Carole CusackHalloween was not part of growing up for many of us.
