Did medieval Europeans really live in their own shit and behave like animals as shown in the name of the rose or did they just exagarate a bit to show the contrast to the life in the monastery?

Depends on the country and nations. You can't generalize it because each country had own culture and customs. France and Germans Yes, but this wasn't a thing in Spain or Portugal. Slavs and eastern Europe rooted more towards nature.

The movie takes place in Italy, right?

>Look, the peasants are revolting!
>They've always been revolting.

Yeah I think so. Im not very familiar with medieval Italy. Only ancient and renessainse.

according to atheists, yes. according to history, no.

>literally Sherlock Holmes as a medieval monk
Bravo Eco

No. Also this movie is a terrible adaptation of the book with everything being so poopoopeepee.

ITT: Zig Forums proves that medieval studies degree wasn't a total waste after all

Yes they really did

depends on era. middle ages lasted from like 400s to 1400s so it's about 1000 years of gap and early middle age can not be compared to late or even core era

Wait until you find out the Monks quoting Wittgenstein!

>he doesn't know

If you like that, try reading Foucalt's Pendulum. Hundreds of pages of gibberish about computer programs and cults just to reveal modern Templars are LARPers lmao

no everyone knows people had running water with toilets and sinks and baths in every home since 3000 years

implying people would clean themselves if there was a weekly muslim raid destroying all infrasutructure

It’s complete Hollywood bollocks.
Medieval Europe:
>Bathhouses and washing were normal
>Fabrics were as colourful and bright as one could afford and for occasions, it was not a drab brown mudfest
>fashion conscious, showy, strong aesthetics
>cultivated manners according to class and status, code of chivalry

This. Leftards, browncels and atheists.

Bullshit. Even today there's people who just don't fucking use the shower or even sink every single apartment has. You can't tell me that it was any different 800 years ago, when it took a little bit more to stay clean.

Super Smash Bros. didn't exist yet, so the no shower autists had to just read the bible all day instead.

Dude, back then people actually worked and farmed all day. They didn't have the luxury of sitting home and playing games till it was time to sleep.

>Dude, back then people actually worked and farmed all day
exactly. and you're telling me they still got rid of all that sweat and dirt after a hard day working the crops, without soap or running water? everyone fucking reeked back then, no matter what anons say about "hollywood bollocks"

Imagine being this retarded.

Basically everyone was poor or starving besides the church and born hyper rich who also ran the armies. 1300-1400

Never forget. The christianity is a corporation. They spend thousands of years delaying science to try to hold onto their gold. Lets be honest it was all about gold.

Probably 1700 years of human progress stunted by Jesus.

Of course not, this movie is uber bullshit. Medieval Europeans didn't find filth compelling.
In fact, they thought filth and bad smell bring deseases, that's why they were usually so schizoids about miasma.

i wanted to like this movie i really did, but i just couldn't. am i pleb?

They had running water. Baths have existed since ancient Rome. On top of the rivers. I'm not sure if they bathed literally every single day, but certainly once a week at a minimum.

They actually worked less dipshit. Couldnt work at night, as soon as it got dark you went inside, 2 hours after sun up you went out. They worked 36 hour weeks at prime growing, the in winter barely left the house

Nasty little Britons!

>once a week
That's what I learned at school but most people and places would still smell

No, they were clean and behaved according to the bible. Only in forgotten hellholes they could have been like in the movie, but certainly not around a rich monastery.

>France
Lol it was the richest country by that time.

no no it's just england that's disgusting and it's hardly exclusive to the medieval era

God that fucking book sucked.

>They had running water. Baths have existed since ancient Rome. On top of the rivers
bullshit. i'm not saying baths haven't existed, i'm saying a shitload of places didn't have any. and a shitload of places were far away from rivers.

evey town was literally next to a river, there was no reason not to wash up, but of course not every home had fucking plumbing with running water
people today really think everything just magically appeared, if workers form water treatment facilities strike every major city would get abandoned in two weeks

Adding on
They woke with the sun
Would clean up everything
Wait about 2 hours, then go out to work
Then 2 or 3 hours later, theyd eat, so around 10am to 11 they prep and eat then 4 or 5 hours later theyd eat again 3-4 then theyd finish up the day around 7 and go home then eat a little.

Repeat repeat until sunday, then they eat 4 times. Their lives were boring

What shitload of places? Every city had one. Even farmers in the middle of fucking nowhere probably had some access to water.

>Did medieval Europeans really live in their own shit and behave like animals

People TODAY live in their own shit and behave like animals. The civilians you see in The Name of the Rose are all living close to the monastery because they are impoverished and looking for handouts. The real history behind the book and film details all the insane cults that sprang up back then with the CHAZ/CHOP communes that came with them.

>shitload of places were far away from rivers.
right, because farming and livestock doesnt need water

they could legally fuck cunny though

>France and Germans yes

Are you mentally retarded?

That's a really shallow understanding of history. Also inequality is good

niggers today probaly smell worse than medieval farmers

>without soap
It's common everywhere since about 4000 years ago. What makes you think they were able to build entire cities and make tools and art but for some reason refused to use fucking soap?

>You can't generalize
>Slavs and eastern Europe

awful bait

Dude they all were luck to make it to 35.
