Ireland Under the Brutal Tudors

What impact did the Tudors have on Ireland, not just in the councils of kings and earls, but in the rhythms of ordinary life? What were the consequences for ordinary citizens when English power was asserted through martial law, low-level coercion and the constant threat of punishment?

Professor Suzannah Lipscomb is joined by Dr David Edwards to discuss how communities were reshaped from the ground up.
