Greed, Lust & Murder: King Henry VIII, the Tudor Court, and How It Changed England Forever
October 4, 2024, 4-5:30PM Eastern Time
Presented by Curt DiCamillo
The Tudor dynasty was one of the most dramatic and troubled of all English royal families. Ruling during turbulent times, and with a precarious claim to the throne, the five Tudor monarchs left an indelible mark on England. Join Curator of Special Collections Curt DiCamillo for a sweeping lecture that sheds light on the Tudors' loves, personalities, art, architecture, and literature, all of which has come down to us today in many and surprising ways. In spite of their extreme shortcomings, there wouldn’t be an England today without the Tudors.
