Manage episode 354873494 series 3320573
In this podcast we explore the time period of the English Republic with Historian Anna Keay, author of the book "The Restless Republic: Britain without a Crown." This time period is often reduced to the time of Oliver Cromwell, but there are many other players and ordinary people who were affected by this tumultuous period. It was a time of great hopes that were never quite realized and a time of extraordinary violence.

Dr. Keay is the former curator for the Historic Royal Palaces, she has a PhD from the University of London.
