About this listen

Church schisms, imperial schisms, neighbours illegally trying to divert rivers into your lagoon, other neighbours asking for help out of the blue ... as the 12th century heads towards its mid-point, Venice has a lot going on around her. And that's before her Archbishop goes rogue and the Normans seize Corfu. Again. And if that isn't enough for you, we've also got a guest appearance by a distant ancestor of a Shakespearean hero. Find out more as Doxe Pietro Polani realises that he's got 99 problems but a Bishop ain't ... no, 100. He's got 100 problems.
