...And a Happy Medieval New Year
New Year's celebrations come and go.
But in the Middle Ages it represented days of debauchery in Germany and England, authorized rebellion against the Church in Paris, bonfires blazing for days during Scotland's Hogmanay and overall lunatic behavior throughout Europe.
Sure, some people refer to it as the Dark Ages. Why, then, did it seem like so much fun?
Happy New Year!
