À propos de ce contenu audio
Who was Thomas the Rhymer — 13th-century Scottish poet, seer, and prophet? In this episode of Myth, Mystery, Lore and History, we delve into the life and legend of True Thomas of Ercildoune, a mysterious figure whose story blends history, myth, and medieval prophecy. Was he a real historical figure, or simply the Scottish answer to Merlin?
Join me as I uncover the origins of the Thomas the Rhymer legend, explore his eerie prophecies, and discuss his ties to folklore, poetry, and the supernatural Queen of Elfinland.
Tracing his influence in medieval Scotland, Westmorland and Berwickshire, and a look at how his story inspired artists like Steeleye Span, Ewan MacColl, and Archie Fisher.
Whether you’re a folklore fan, history lover, or just here for a local legend—this is an episode is full of twists and turns.
