Hello and welcome to the Renaissance English History podcast. I'm your host, Heather Tesco,

and I'm a storyteller who makes history accessible because I believe it's a pathway to

understanding who we are, our place in the universe, and connecting

more deeply with our own humanity, and the other humans with whom we share this planet.

This is episode 82, and it's on Tudor historians and chroniclers.

What did people who live during the Tudor times write about their own history, and how

did they want their history to be remembered?

We're going to look at that

through the lens of a few famous chroniclers and antiquarians from the Tudor period.

told you before how I got this moniker nomad chick, right? It's my alter ego. Because back in 2001, 2001,

you guys, before Web 2.0 and Facebook and Home Exchange and all of that, I was going to make a website

for single women like I was then in their mid-20s, like I was then, who wanted to find travel

partners and travel on their own and get information

and support on how to travel by themselves around the world. Now, since then, I never did it.
