Timothy Lusch Reviews the Crusader Strategy
“After reading Tibble’s account, one is more surprised that the crusader states succeeded at all than by their eventual failure.” https://t.co/x3q4qOHmKH

Science in the Medieval West
Science Was Alive and Well in the Dark Ages. Medieval times were not as scientifically stunted as we often think. Historian Seb Falk explains how those myths arose — and what science back then actually looked like. https://t.co/fmwSyHhrt9

Voluntarism? Nominalism?
Defenses and critiques of modern politics will ultimately come back to the choice between a metaphysics of inherent order or divine fiat, so which should we choose? https://t.co/lgv4xL7DN0

Theological Roots of the Secular World Order by Nathaniel Peters
Did people with power and influence really believe in legal voluntarism? Or were they just acting in accordance with their appetites? Is this sort of genealogy, putting the blame on late medieval theology/philosophy for "modernity" really still useful, in comparison with a proper study of history?
