Wolf Hall Trilogy - History & Interpretation

  • Summary

  • Hilary Mantel’s extraordinary Wolf Hall Trilogy ignited popular interest in the turbulent Tudor period of British history. Coupled with the BBC production of the first two novels, the highlighting of Thomas Cromwell’s rise and fall has brought a new understanding to the political upheavals that occurred during the eventful reign of Henry VIII.

    With an adaptation of Mantel’s third book in the trilogy 'The Mirror & The Light' currently underway, we are joined by Dr Lauren Mackay. Lauren is a Tudor and Early Modern historian, and is the author of the official Wolf Hall Companion. In this episode, Lauren delves into the truths behind this blockbuster trilogy before revealing just where we might find remnants of Wolf Hall today.
