And didn't King George? have a little boy with Epilepsy who had to be kept away from the public eye as it was considered an embarrassment. Very sad. Glad you covered this 😊
In many US cities during the 1800's many disabilities and other undesirable people were illegal in public. So your neighbors didn't have a chance to judge your epilepsy because you weren't allowed to be seen. Or go places, or do things, or have a life.
Those last two give me the vibe that they were based on his corpse, even just that he was laying back instead of upright, so maybe have a forensic artist speculate on the difference.
whats crazy is that manic bipolar disorders are closer to something like epilepsy than something like anxiety disorders. so they were closer to fact than you might think! although it is an exaggerated idea that people with bipolar disorders are violent, it is still a possibility.
You need to hold up that sheet of paper again! Your camera is really intent on making you look like a Victorian ghost.
Obviously they were possessed 🤌
Avoiding religious persecution in the 15th century seems rather easy since you could live in the middle of nowhere
The fact that ‘definitely’ is spelt ‘definately’ puts me off reading beyond the heading…
But that medicine didn't exist yet I think
The second Marley is named Robert …aka Bob … Marley get it?
Jenny … no Christmas pudding in America… we are heathens
Still meet people who misunderstand meltdowns and seizures and believe that they could be harmed by someone who is having a meltdown.
Imagine thinking you could murder someone during a seizure, lol. I was born with Epilepsy, during my absence seizures, I just...stop. And during a tonic clonic? Naaaahhhh, lol.
I mean, Crisco's tagline is "It's Digestible" since the competitors were not.
She'll just be Queen Camilla, like how Mary of Teck after George V died in 1935 was just Queen Mary. That's the normal way of describing a dowager queen, whether she's the mother of the monarch or not. The reason the Queen Mother was called the Queen Mother was presumably to avoid confusion because she happened to have the same first name as her daughter, so calling her just Queen Elizabeth would have been confusing.
In dark age was practice of burning witches. But if she lived in dark ages - she gonna burn at the stake witchers
'jesus christ im white??' 😂
i know this from fanfiction. not sure if i should be proud of myself

Disgusting language.
Neat! Cameras are funny lol
Environmental Changes
Didn’t the Jews open the gates of Toledo allowing the Muslims in thereby causing their expulsion?
It's wild to think I would have been looked on with suspicion or put in a damn asylum for being epileptic. It's not my fault I took a shot to the head when I was eight or maybe it was. I don't know.
Other fashion historians have also said the movie did an amazing job on the costumes.
This was a really lovely video. I've always liked the movie, but I assumed a lot more of it was fictionalized than it turns out to have been, which is great to know. Also, congratulations on the book! I'll look for it in Vancouver (Canada) in February.
If it hurts when you get stabbed while wearing it then the armour is doing it's job, sure it could be doing it better but it's doing it well enough.
I have enjoyed this so very very much!! My cup o’tea. ❤❤❤
Such an amazing presentation. Thank you x
"King kicking around" sounds hilariously close to "kinky king around"😂
Ah "stage and screen combat" explains the gigantic movements with the swords.
Europeans are looted our artifacts and tons of gold and gems even from Sri lanka.
I don't think this is said enough, but thank you JDraper for making enjoyable, informative, videos packed full of nuance and compassion.
She should have trolled us by putting a working tap on her monument 😂
Wait what I don't remember subscribing to this channel
😊
She'll just be "Queen Camilla" just as Queen Mary was just "Queen Mary" (despite being the mother of two kings). Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother only went by "The Queen Mother" because she shared a name with her daughter and it would have been confusing. I don't think anyone has actually used "Queen Dowager" as a title. It is just a description.
I have to say, as official titles for royalty go "Jesus Christ I'm white" was not my first guess... ;)
I really appreciate your thought process. You're the type of person I could spend hours talking to.
she's also a lesbian!
to be fair he was probablly poisoning the Queen, maybe not out of malice but because of what constituted as health care back then
Fascinating.
I keep rewatching this video, it's a good vibe
I just hope that when the king goes to his maker. He doesn’t end up in the same place as Prince Andrew will.
Man your amazing
In George Eliot’s 1861 novel, “Silas Marner”, the title character is presented sympathetically as an epilepsy victim.
Not to be confused with the Dowager Duchess of Devonshire, a title that trips easily off the tongue.
I want more of these!!! I wish there was a full line of them that I could pull from from around the world to teach my niece with.
In the early 20th century, epilepsy was often considered a mental illness. That seems a stretch to me, but medical theories were different then.
A hint of Scottish??
You are awesome
