Jak Irlandczycy zatrzymali Anglię na 200 lat? Nieznana bitwa, która zmieniła historię.

Could a single battle have halted the conquest of the entire country? In 1318, at Dysert O'Dea, Irish warriors inflicted a crushing defeat on Anglo-Norman forces. Although this battle remains little known outside of Ireland, it had enormous significance for the future of the island and became a symbol of the struggle to preserve Gaelic identity. The guest of Kurier History will be Dr. Cezary Namirski – archaeologist, historian, and author of the latest book "Dysert O'Dea 1318: The Gaelic Triumph over the Normans." This fascinating battle will be the starting point for our conversation, but we will also touch on much broader topics related to the Middle Ages and archaeology. We will discuss, among other things, about: ⚔️ the Norman conquests of Europe and Ireland, 🏰 medieval wars and the art of battle, 🍀 the history of Ireland and its struggle for independence, 🛡️ the everyday life of medieval people, 🔎 the work of archaeologists and the discovery of the past, 📜 myths and stereotypes about the Middle Ages, ⚰️ discoveries that changed our view of history. How much can we learn about past eras from a fragment of pottery, bones, or castle ruins? Were the Middle Ages truly an era of backwardness and violence? Or has modern culture created an image that has little in common with historical reality? We invite you to meet an expert who has been researching the medieval world for years, not only through written sources but also through the material traces left by people living hundreds of years ago. 👉 Want to help grow the channel: patronite.pl/KurierHistoryczny ☕️ Want to buy us a virtual coffee: buycoffee.to/kurierhistoryczny ✅ Do you enjoy not only listening but also reading about our history: kurierhistoryczny.pl/ 🎩 You can find unique gifts for history or literature enthusiasts in our store: sklepwokulskiego.pl/
