Episode 35 — Patriarchs galore

Just as Venice gradually grew politically independent as an unintended result of the interactions with, and between the surrounding powers, the church organisation within Venetia also acquired some level of independence both from the papacy, and from the mainland powers. Unsurprisingly, the process which led to a separate Venetian church had very little to do with religion and faith.

Der Himmel ist Lila in der Abenddämmerung. Da hinein ragt eine klassische Straßenlaterne mit drei orange leuchtenden Laternen an einem eisernen Masten, direkt über der Laterne ein fast voller Mond. Unten am Bildrand sind Bäume und das Dach eines typisch venezianischen Hauses zu sehen.

It's pretty much a given that any day will be filled with activity, noise, and bustle, but when we can start it slowly, quietly, with a healthy dose of calmness and peace, that sets the tone -- a very good one -- for the hours to follow.

We humans have the ability to build beautiful things or ugly ones, to seek out peace or war, to do good or evil, to reach for the sublime or wallow in the slop.

And it's an individual decision, one we make multiple times, each and every day.

Episode 32 — The first doges of Venice

If you thought fake news is a recent invention, think again. The traditional story of the first Venetian doges is little more than that, a made up story. Several of them probably didn't even exist, and if they did, weren't what we're told they were. Fake news from a thousand years ago, but well seasoned. You've been warned.

Episode 33 — The Demise of the Exarchate

The events around the demise of the Exarchate of Ravenna only marginally involved the Venetians. It is nevertheless important to the history of Venice. Without the Exarchate, the empire was more distant, and Venetia was therefore less protected, but also less constrained.

It seemed like, to them, that if there were no need to be a hurry, well then, there was no need to be in a hurry.

They found it a rather workable and pleasant way to approach life, and they decided to explore where such a way of thinking would take them.

Early morning Venice, Italy, and the tourists haven't arrived en masse from the train station yet, so the streets -- which in a few short hours will be a-bustle with people, are quiet, and calm, and peaceful.

It's the perfect time for a stroll.

Episode 34 — The Duchy of the Venetians

As the Byzantine presence in northern Italy waned, and vanished, the Duchy of the Venetians was the only Byzantine territory left. Outside direct imperial control, the Venetians had to find their own way, and it wasn't easy. Early Venetian politics was therefore often turbulent, factional, violent and deadly.
