Tutor: Cheryl Hayden
This is the blurb for H05 in term 4...H05 is a 20 week course. In term 4, we will cover Part 2 of the course and ask the question: 'What Happened in Cornish History that was unique?' We look at Cornwall during medieval times, its part in the Wars of the Roses, and its response to the rise of the Tudor Dynasty. We move into the 16th Century and the Reformation, a period of resistance, rebellion and treason - this is the area in which your tutor is among a few active researchers. We also examine Cornwall's role during the First Civil War - did they favour the King or Parliament? And why? Hope to see you there! .
