Award-winning author Nandini Das is professor of Early Modern English Literature and Culture and Fellow of Exeter College at Oxford University. Join her for a discussion of her latest work, This Little World, which tells a new history of Tudor and Stuart England through the lives of those who crossed its borders – merchants and migrants, sailors and spies, pilgrims and exiles.
Drawing on extensive archival research, Das will present a startlingly new, globally resonant vision of England’s past, as a nation on the cusp of empire, reframing England’s story within a wider world, and challenging some of our most fundamental ideas.
Das will be in conversation with Alex von Tunzelmann, an internationally bestselling and Wolfson Prize shortlisted historian.
This talk will be held on Zoom and all ticketholders will receive a link to view the morning of the event. It will also be recorded for those not able to join.
