Nowadays, in the Northern hemisphere, Spring starts on March 21, which corresponds to an equinox, when daylight and nighttime are equal in length. Medieval authors too associated the beginning of Spring with March. In his seventh-century encyclopedia known as the
Etymologies, Isidore of Seville wrote that March is “also called the month of new things, because the month of March is the beginning of the year. It is also called the “new Spring” from its signs of germination…” But why did Isidore qualify March as “the beginning of the year”, you might wonder?

By Sophie Andrade
A look inside Eleanor de Montfort’s wardrobe, and why it was important for a 13th-century countess to dress extravagantly and beautifully.
People in the Middle Ages liked to layer up. Including underwear and outerwear, an everyday outfit regularly consisted of at least six different garments. There were three main pieces: a tunic, surcoat, and mantle. The tunic, basically a long plain shirt, was worn by both men and women. A woman’s tunic was longer than a man’s and had slightly narrower sleeves. The lower parts of the tunic sleeves were fastened with several buttons, a trend that began in the thirteenth century. The neck of the tunic was fastened with a brooch, the quality of which reflected the wealth and status of the wearer.

Jean de Brie, a fourteenth-century French shepherd turned university graduate and author. Born in a peasant family near Paris, young Jean grew up herding geese and goslings. After trying his hands with pigs – which he disliked – he was injured when working with cows and horses. Jean ended up herding sheep with great talent. At the age of 11, he single-handedly shepherded a herd of 80 lambs. Three years later, he was hired to watch 200 breeding ewes and did not lose a single one. Jean was soon asked to help manage a royal domain. Then, a royal advisor took Jean under his wing and decided to finance the shepherd’s education in Paris.
