Attention, history lovers, anthropology, time travel and the informative capacity of Putomikel:
next friday 15 from May to 19.30 We will present the book 'Surviving in the Middle Ages. Chronicle of a traveler through Spain (E. Planet) with its author, Mikel Herrán aka Putomikel (Doctor in Archeology and popularizer with a queer and decolonial perspective on YouTube and TV).
He will be accompanied by the cultural journalist Teresa Madueño.
We wait for them!
…
That dark image, dirty, violent and ignorant that we have seen represented so many times in books and movies, It has little or nothing to do with how medieval people really lived.. Mikel Herran, one of the most interesting emerging voices in historical dissemination, delves into these pages on a journey through the many kingdoms and cities of the earth that some called Spania, others al-Andalus and others Sepharad, to let the true protagonists of the Middle Ages speak: the pilgrims, Las Pastoras, the merchants, the bandits, the slaves, the knights, the troubadours... It is likely that some of their stories do not sound so far away to you, and that they even come to propose classic solutions to contemporary problems.
