I stumbled upon this wonderful series explaining the making of medieval manuscripts, and thought it might be useful to someone out there.

The #RSC #Macbeth programme says that the #Gaelic #underworld is made of three intersecting circles. The first is home to #faries and other #mythological creatures, the second is where the dead go where they remain in familiar places, and the third is home to #witches and #deamons. Lots of great #inspiration for #FantasyWriters.

In this video, it is interesting and he does a great job, but he does get some things about mead wrong. He says "metheglin" is "honey and fermented fruit juice," but mead infused with fruit is a "melomel," where as a metheglin is mead with herbs and spices. There are some surviving medieval metheglin recipes you can look up. Also, mead is also not always wine-like. For example: a "braggot" is a beer-like mead.
