"Few popes hold a more dominating place in the history of the Catholic Church than Nicholas I." So much so, that many church historians and scholars argue that he should be considered Pope Nicholas the Great! But does he hold up to Pope Leo and Gregory? We're going to decide once and for all!  In his episode, we discuss Nicholas's many conflicts against the troublesome Archbishop John of Ravenna, the haughty Archbishop Hincmar of Rheims, the illegitimate Patriarch Photius of Constantinople, and most importantly, the divorce of Lothair II.  It turns out he was the punchy ol' Saint Nicholas all along! Audio note: Bry's working with a new microphone, there might be a warble or two. It's learning.    Huge thanks to Ben of Fukushima Laser Shark for our jingle!

Habemus Papam: Episode 105 – St. Nicholas I (the Great)

In this episode we look at early Russian history, from the founding of the Viking state Kievan Rus to the rule of Nicholas I in the 1800's. We specifically discuss the foundation of Russian state ideology in the 1830's and 1840's. We look at influences like Westernization, but also at the cemented institutions of orthodoxy, autocracy and serfdom. The Pugachev and Decembrist Rebellions are put into context. We also consider the contribution of the intelligentsia at positioning Russian identity. A source we can recommend is @The Great Courses, specifically the series by Mark Steinberg.
