Renaissance English History Podcast: A Show About The Tudors

Today we’re looking at the closest thing Tudor England had to newspapers: the crime pamphlets that reported real murders, scandals, and witchcraft cases in the sixteenth century. We’ll dig into the 1573 killing of George Saunders, the 1592 murder of John Brewen, and a witchcraft case printed that same year, and explore how these pamphlets shaped public ideas about justice long before regular news existed. Yuletide with the Tudors is starting on Monday! Don't forget to add some festive history to your season! https://www.englandcast.com/yuletide-with-the-tudors/ Hosted on Acast.
