Ten Minute English and British History #09 - The Normans and the Anarchy

Twitter:   / tenminhistory   Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=4973164 This episode covers the aftermath of William the Conqueror's death and what his sons got up to. The relationship between England and Normandy takes centre stage as well as how this fits into France's issues at the time. Events come to a head after the death of Henry I and the anarchy which follows, pitting Empress Matilda against Stephen for the throne. All of this, of course, leads to the rise of the House of Plantagenet. Recommended reading: The Blackwell Companion to Britain in the Later Middle Ages - Very good but themed thematically, so don't expect a good overview of events but fantastic depth.

It is very light on certain periods and misses out some continental context, though. Very cheap, though.

Please note that these are not meant to be comprehensive and there's a lot of stuff I couldn't fit into the episodes that I would have liked to. Thank you for watching, though, it's always appreciated.
