Published 1 year, 2 months ago
Description
In this episode, I’m joined by historian and author Helene Harrison to discuss her book Elizabethan Rebellions. We explore how every major rebellion in Elizabeth I’s reign can be traced back to one pivotal moment—Mary, Queen of Scots fleeing to England. From the Northern Rebellion to the Babington Plot, we unravel how Mary’s presence became a catalyst for unrest and examine how these uprisings fit into the wider history of Tudor rebellions and plots. Tune in for a fascinating discussion on the threats Elizabeth faced and how all the Tudors navigated an era of intrigue and resistance!
