New EarthDiverse course: “Tudor Women Who Moulded the Monarchy”
From green sleeves to iron-fisted Queens - come and discover women who have shaped history! In the wake of Her Late Majesty’s passing, this course reflects on the female leaders of the monarchy, exploring how their gender impacted their reign and legacy. Focusing on the Tudor period, we journey from the green sleeves of Anne Boleyn to the Catholic tyranny of Mary. This course explores the antithetical female leaders and their role in shaping British History at a time of significant change, the beginning of the birth of modern Europe.
This Zoom course meets on Tuesday evenings from 7:00-8:00 pm beginning on Tuesday 18 October 2022. There are 5 consecutive weekly sessions.
Bring a friend along for good measure and support our rangatahi teaching in our Junior Lecturer series.
