Feast of Fools - Stuff That I Find Interesting

The video discusses the Feast of Fools, a medieval festival in France known for its wild celebrations. It was a religious holiday where clergy acted like laymen, and activities included appointing a fool bishop and performing mass with irreverent acts. The festival had pagan origins linked to Saturnalia, a Roman holiday. Over time, the Church and early Protestants criticized and eventually outlawed the festival due to its immoral behavior.

How did the early church attempt to replace the pagan holiday Saturnalia?

What led to the decline of the Feast of Fools in the 12th and 13th centuries?
