The Third Horseman (or, The Great Famine of 1315)

In this chilling episode, we journey back to the dawn of one of the most catastrophic centuries in European history. The year is 1315, and a famine of unprecedented scale grips the continent, marking the beginning of a century of despair. Unrelenting rains lead to failed harvests, and soon, the eerie silence of empty markets is replaced by the desperate cries of the starving. This Great Famine, a grim harbinger of the trials to come, would forever alter the course of history. As we navigate through this bleak period, we’ll also explore its far-reaching impacts, including how it sowed the seeds for stories that resonate even today, such as the haunting tale of Hansel and Gretel. Join us as we uncover the chilling realities and enduring influences of the Great Famine.”Notes:- - “The Great Famine: Northern Europe in the Early Fourteenth Century” by William Chester Jordan- “The Third Horsemen: A Story of Weather, War and the Famine History Forgot” by William RosenInsta: @convo_btweTwitter: convo_btweFacebook: A Conversation Before the World Ends Tiktok: convo_btwe
