Let's take a journey through society of medieval Europe to discover the rich palette in which reading manifested.

We begin in the monasteries, where the written Latin word (Latinitas) was cultivated in the early centuries of the Middle Ages, and continue to the noble courts of the High and Late Middle Ages. The attitudes of nobility towards reading changed during the first half of the Middle Ages: the ability to read and write was among the skills civilised knights and damsels should possess. Their interests led to the creation of new literary genres: courts were the birthplace of courtly literature (hence the name).

Realms of the Ancients: Chronicles of the Hundred Kingdoms by Cocomonetxos90
1 part Complete Mature
Title: "Realms of the Ancients: Chronicles of the Hundred Kingdoms" In a time shrouded by the mists of history, a thousand centuries before the reckoning of time as known today, the ancient kingdoms of diverse lands stood at the precipice of a tumultuous era. The world was divided into a kaleidoscope of realms, each bound by its unique climate and culture. From the scorching deserts of Auranthia to the icy tundras of Glacium, from the vibrant jungles of Sylvandor to the rolling plains of Solstaria, a hundred noble families vied for rulership, their ambitions aflame amidst the clash of seasons. In these distant times, the kingdoms were not merely divided by geography, but by the very essence of their existence. Each land spoke its own agent tongue, woven from the ancient roots of their people. The kingdoms were marked not only by their landscapes but by the seasons that held sway over them. The Summer Courts of Sunnaria, the Winter Strongholds of Frostgarde, the Harvest Dominion of Veridale, and the Monsoon Empires of Seraphal, each realm flourished in its distinct time of year. The Hundred Kingdoms forged alliances and rivalries through marriages, sealing their fates through the bonds of love and duty. But beneath the veneer of unity lay treacherous plots and hidden agendas, threatening to unravel the fragile tapestry of power. As alliances shifted, and allegiances turned, the kingdoms faced a threat beyond their wildest imaginings.

We Eukaryotes by duncmacphun
13 parts Complete
About 1.5 billion years ago, the single-celled eukaryotes became the common ancestors of all multicellular plants, animals, and fungi. Fish evolved a primitive lung sac and four limbs, 350 million years ago, so they could crawl between fresh water swamps. About 250 million years ago, the ancestors of all mammals, were tiny nocturnal insectivores and, about 6 million years ago, we began walking on two legs. The most recent Ice Age (2.6 million to 12,000 years ago), severely reduced rainfall in Africa, where Homo habilis was evolving. In Homo erectus (1.9 to 0.5 million years ago), cranial capacity increased to between 850 and 1000 cm3 implying the phenomenal increase of 125,000 more neurons with each generation. Between 70 and 50 thousand years ago, Homo sapiens spread out from east Africa. Then, about 20,000 years ago, evolution made a sharp change in direction. After 250 million years, we ceased to be hunter gatherers. The Neolithic Revolution meant we could never go back. WHO THE HELL ARE WE? is a series of short books and videos describing the evolution of civilization. Almost everyone on the planet is five times wealthier than their ancestors only 50 years ago. This astonishing phenomenon has also improved health, education, and longevity. The cause; an explosive growth in ideas and productivity. It began when we learned to control fire, evolved articulate speech and stumbled onto the way to create infinite wealth; free trade. The discovery of agriculture made us richer but we also learned how to destroy wealth. Great civilization grew up but then disappeared leaving only incredible ruins and ideas. Later books detail some of the ideas and developments that increased the average life span from about 40 years to more than 80 and the average world income from less than $3 to more than $33 per person per day (and to $140 per day in some countries).
