Today on @theresthistory, the incredible story of the young peasant girl who saved France - JOAN OF ARC.
The 100 Years War is raging.
The English seem on the verge of victory.
But in an obscure village, a mysterious voice is summoning a WARRIOR MAID...

Replying to @SCynic1
@SCynic1 I have laid out a detailed account of the slaughter & eviction of innocent Palestinian civilians in Jaffa in 1948 and am very happy to debate any of the details with you. But because you cannot counter any of these historical facts, you mute me. This is hardly an adult response & certainly not one would expect from a KC supposed to be trained to distinguish fact from fiction.
Tant pis! But if you'd like a reading list to help educate yourself about the 1948 war and the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians, just let me know.

As Trump makes moves on Greenland, making up history as he goes, there is no better time to learn its real history. At @EmpirePodUK we did a deep dive into story. Here are all four parts again.

#EdwardtheConfessor died 960 years ago #OnThisDay.
A model of #medieval piety, Edward was a surprisingly effective ruler, relying on the Normans to keep the powerful Godwine dynasty at bay.

Anyone involved in psychotherapy must read this fantastic article. For me, it was the best piece (published in the media) on relational psychotherapy in 2025. Drawing the link between Rogers & Winnicott was long overdue - @psychgeist52 does a brilliant job

'The bittre frostes, with the sleet and reyn,
Destroyed hath the grene in every yerd;
Janus sit by the fyr, with double berd,
And drynketh of his bugle horn the wyn.
Biforn hym stant brawen of the tusked swyn,
And "Nowel!" crieth every lusty man.'

The silver medal falls into the hands of Jan Parker of @Cambridge_Uni, who wrote about Homer's Odyssey adapted for the silver screen. No, this wasn't about Nolan, but Uberto Pasolini's "The Return" and how trauma still resonates across media and millennia: antigonejournal.com/2025/05/…
