A wonderful podcast that is about what makes history so fascinating to me: through precise questions you get to the very heart of what it was like to walk through Hampton Court, what the streets of London would have smelled like and get your imagination stirred what the people of this era might have seen, thought and struggled with.
A journey, not just about the past, but about what we make of its history today. Utterly enjoyable and fascinating!

Having behaved generously in his own eyes, his outrage at Bigod’s continuing the dissent may have spurred the second round of monastic suppression not initially planned. No proof, of course.

This was a superb interview concerning the life and works of playwright and poet, Christopher Marlowe. I learned a lot of new information and gained much insight on this brilliant cruel man.
Been listening to this podcast for a while, fairly interesting in general. But today I was listening to a repeat of an old episode about fairies in the 16th century and I was shocked that professor Purkiss thinks people feel an unease about rape trials like they did about witch trials because it’s all just ‘he said, she said’. For a professor she knows very little about the difficulties of bringing a rape case to court, the burden of truth and also, the fact that it was mostly women who were tri... more
