Minds Behind the Monarchy: Cromwell, Reform, and Religion

This episode goes far beyond Thomas Cromwell. Join us as we explore the shifting tides of religion in Tudor England—from the ruthless politics of the Reformation to the 'what ifs' of Edward VI’s reign. We discuss how the Rough Wooing turned England into the joke of Europe, and how Elizabeth I’s open-minded approach to faith helped steady a fractured kingdom—cementing her legacy as the true mother of the Church of England. If you're curious about how faith, power, and personality shaped a dynasty, this one's for you.--Host Rebecca LarsonGuest: Prof. Diarmaid MacCullochRecording Location: Courtyard at Cadhay Manor House in Devon.This is a repeat episode from last Summer.
