  • Life Lessons from the Tudors: Margaret Beaufort (ep 200)
    Oct 7 2024

    The Tudors are one of the most famous dynasties in royal history. We can't stop talking about them. It's easy to forget how unlikely the dynasty was. Without the extraordinary ability of Margaret Beaufort to make connections with both sides of the Wars of the Roses, we probably never would have had a Tudor dynasty!

    We see Shakespeare’s influence all over, from the popularity of his plays for hundreds of years to adaptations like West Side Story, The Lion King, and more. We’re less likely to see is others’ influence on him. That’s the topic of Shakespeare’s Borrowed Feathers by Darren Freebury-Jones.
