I think some of the posts on here are very anglo-centric. I like that HN is a place that serves no one particlar nation or people.

As a noob asking from a place of curiosity, does “Medieval” mean anything outside of the Europe sphere of influence? Medieval evokes a certain imagery in my mind, rather than a time period. It feels weird and Eurocentric to refer to Asian countries in ~1200 as “Medieval” for example.

What’s not to like?

#9And thus it was proved true that an artists value isn't known until they are dead.
In this case, it took six centuries for somebody to get their jokes.
and for those who don't get *my* humor, it's a play on words about 'getting' jokes, physically, in written formRe: A medieval comedy act has been discovered in first-ever find, researcher says

The general term is the Post-classical Era.
