Hey!
I heard you’re feeling a bit scared and anxious for tomorrow, but you’re gonna be just fine! I know it can be scary about starting the second semester of your senior year, but you know what? You’re gonna do great. Just try and ground yourself when it gets too overwhelming... Stop to take deep breathes, and make sure you stay hydrated too. I bet you’re gonna do amazing! You’ve got this. Me and the pistols are rooting for you! Make sure to tell me all about your day afterwards, ok?
Love,

I just found your podcast and saw that you covered the Gesta Romanorum in a lot of episodes. Since they are pretty long, can you please tell me if the Episode about the man in the snake cave (Charles Swan translated the title as "Of Deliverance from Hell") is in one of them?
It isn't yet. I just checked, and it's one of the ones I have tagged to include in a future episode. If you like, I can make a note to do it the next time we revisit the Gesta Romanorum -- though that won't be for a while, as we have the next few months already planned out and Gesta Romanorum isn't on the schedule.

“…The Anglo-Saxon era is often thought of as having been a golden age for women. Since the late eighteenth century, it has been a commonplace that women in England had better rights before the Norman Conquest than they did afterwards, and were held in higher esteem by society. Before 1066, said one eminent historian in the mid-twentieth century, men and women enjoyed ‘a rough and ready partnership’. As so often with golden ages, however, this picture rests on a selective reading of very limited and debatable evidence. One of its principal props is an account of German women written by the Roman historian Tacitus towards the end of the first century AD. These women, claimed Tacitus, were virtuous, frugal and chaste, and supported their sons and husbands by encouraging them to acts of valour. But this was simply a Roman praising ‘barbarian’ society in order to criticize his own. German women were portrayed as laudable because, unlike their Roman counterparts, they did not conduct adulterous affairs or waste their time at baths and theatres. The reality, unfortunately, seems to be that the status of women in first-century Germany and Anglo-Saxon England was no better than it was in later centuries.”
-Marc Morris, "Anglo-Saxons: The History of the Beginnings of England, 400-1066” / Pauline Stafford, "Women and the Norman Conquest"
Anglo-Saxon England has thus been a Golden Age variously of women's domestication, women's legal emancipation, women's education and women's sexual liberation. The length of a tradition which has changed so fundamentally over time is no guarantee of its veracity. A cursory view of a range of evidence from either side of the 1066 divide casts immediate doubt on the idea of a brutal Norman ending of the Golden Age. The raw statistics of Domesday, for example, suggest a different picture of England on the eve of the Norman arrival. No more than five per cent of the total hidage of land recorded was in the hands of women in 1066. Of that five per cent, 80-85% was in the hands of only eight women, almost all of them members of the families of the great earls, particularly of earl Godwine, or of the royal family. By the tenth and eleventh centuries women other than the queen are virtually absent from the witness lists of the royal charters, and thus apparently from the political significance such witness lists record.”
