Divorce by COMBAT: The Medieval Way of Ending a Marriage...

Saint Augustine’s ideal of the unbreakable marriage dominated the Middle Ages. By the late medieval period the marriage vows contained the phrase ‘till death do us part’, emphasizing the seriousness of the commitment that was being made. And it certainly was serious! In today's episode of Medieval Madness, we will be exploring divorce in the middle ages, as well as taking a look at the story behind Ridley Scott's newest film The Last Duel, starring Adam Driver, Matt Damon and Jodie Comer.
