Norman Cohn - The Pursuit of the Millennium Revolutionary Millennials and Mystical Anarchists of the Middle Ages
What an interesting read!
With 4 introductory chapters you get a solid background for the rest of the book. In 9 more chapters examples of uprisings of the poor, led by messianistic leaders with apocalyptic visions.
Starting in the late 12th century in ‘the backwash of the crusades’ with the amazing story of ‘pseudo-Baldwin’. To end Winding roughly 4 centuries later in Münster where some Dutch Anabaptists created a second Jerusalem, or so they claimed.
Researched ‘46 - ‘56, the author pays attention to the horrific persecution of Jews by the hordes. And of course many uprisings were violently crushed after a while as well, massacres galore in this book. But not all uprisings were completely in vain, stresses Cohn. Sometimes real progress was made.
He touches on similarities between the religiously inspired Ideas and those of Nietzsche, Hegel, Marx, Hitler & Rosenberg. Of course the stories from the Middle Ages were secularized and adapted once more. It was really astonishing to find that some of the dreams of more utopically minded comrades have such deep roots.

The medievalist in me revels in stories like this. Death by trebuchet.

"Explore the medieval world of saints, relics and pilgrimage, and discover why people were willing to lie, spy and steal to get their hands on a piece of holiness. Uncover how someone officially became a Saint, what being a saint was really like, and the murky business of acquiring relics.
Greg Jenner is joined by Dr Simon Yarrow and comedian Rachel Paris for this episode."
I took a medieval history course in undergrad taught by a prof who really knew how to hold the attn of the hundreds of students doing their Western Civ requirement. He told great stories about fights over relics and how relics were stolen...
