48 - Sacra Corona - Season Finale (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One year ago, I uploaded the first episode of History of the Hungarians. This year, to celebrate one year of this podcast, we’ll discuss something a bit more out there: the Sacra Corona, and its role in Hungarian constitutional development. The crown has a storied past, and its historical significance comes much from the role it took up in the political theater of the nation. I will also talk a little about the show at the end. I thank you all for joining me on this journey. While this season co
47 - Two Empresses (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Today, we travel to Byzantium to see how two princesses of the House of Árpád – and Empresses of Byzantium – fared. Their lives could not have been more different. One played a supportive wife to his husband, whose became one of the great rulers of Constantinople – and in turn left her mark on the city that stands to this day. The other had to navigate the tumultuous times of the Fourth Crusade and the ensuing period of Latin Rule. Website: historyofthehungarians.com Facebook:https://www.faceboo
46 - Western Connections (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week, we continue discovering the tales of the daughters of Árpád’s House, focusing on those who lived their lives in Western Europe. We shall talk about three women, one uncertain relative, a forgotten story, and one of the more beloved saints of Medieval Europe. Their origins may have been similar, but their stories are spread across the three centuries of the last 10 months’ narrative, intersecting often.

45 - The Princess on the Island (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Today, we begin approaching the end of our season, with a mini-series I dubbed “The Daughters of Árpád’s House”. And who else better to usher in these stories than arguably the most well-known one of them – in Hungary, at the least. Saint Margit’s story inspired people in her own time, up until to our present day. The princess, who lived on an island became venerated even in her own life, then continued to excite the national consciousness for centuries. Come, join us as we discuss what might be
44 - A century of decline (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last week, the story of the Árpádian dynasty came to an end. For 300 years, we followed the first dynasty of the Kingdom of Hungary, even longer, if we add the years spent with them in Season One. Today’s episode is not just a focused look back over the 13th century, but also an examination of the Árpádians: their history, their legacy, and whether or notthere is a place for us to reinterpret their actions in the light of modern historiography.
