Everyday Anarchism
112. The Puritan Christmas Wars -- Diane Purkiss (English Revolution)
20 Dec 2023
Description
Diane Purkiss joins me to discuss the Christmas Wars, in which Puritans attempted to prevent the celebration of Christmas in the 17th century. Christmas was a carnival in which the world was turned upside down - and the Puritans weren't having it. We also discuss the Lord of Misrule, Twelfth Night, and that 21st century lord of misrule: Lord Buckethead!
