Answers to Questions asked by coach moffitt.

1.On November 27, 1095, Pope Urban II makes perhaps the most influential speech of the Middle Ages, giving rise to the Crusades by calling all Christians in Europe to war against Muslims in order to reclaim the Holy Land, with a cry of "Deus vult!" or "God wills it!"

2.Donna is Italian for Lady, as in Prima Donna, First lady ( usually applied to Opera stars) It is the polite prefix for a woman. Donna also derives from Madonna, the term colloquially applied to the Virgin Mary in the Motherhood role, usually- hence statues of the Madonna. Lit- My Lady. Madonna by itself does NOT mean Mother but the statue angle is well, fixed in stone. Donna was also a title of nobility, the wife of a Nobleman was always styled Donna, like Lady, of course regular titles of nobillity were used also such as Contessa ( Countess) etc. From the above it will be seen that Donna, like so many Christian female names, is a Marian variant, as are, unusually Victoria, Fatima, Lupita ( from Our Lady of Guadeloupe) and others Some etymologist even see Virginia as a personal name as a Marian variant- from the Virgin angle.
