Episode 134: Tudor London - St Paul's Nov 28, 2019

Show notes

This episode is the first in a mini series on life in Tudor London, and today I give a brief intro to what life was like in the capital during the Tudor period, followed by an exploration of the most obvious landmark in the City - St Paul's Cathedral. But it's not the St Paul's we know - it was a gothic church, that was started 400 years before our Tudor friends lived there. The other thing that is important about life around St Paul's was the publishing and bookselling businesses that sprang up around the churchyard. It became a hub of books and pamphlets, and was the Elizabethan equivalent of Waterstones or Barnes and Noble.

Episode 133: Travel in Tudor England Nov 21, 2019

Show notes

In this episode we chat about how our Tudor friends traveled. There's this myth that people in medieval and early Modern England didn't travel - that they stayed in their one little area forever, and that was that. But actually, they had the travel bug, and from pilgrimages to jobs that included travel, there were plenty of opportunities to get out and see the world - or at least a piece of it.
