Join Andrea Zuvich, The Seventeenth Century Lady, as she welcomes Professor Cordelia Beattie of The University of Edinburgh, for a chat about the life and legacy of Alice Thornton (1626–1707), a remarkable seventeenth-century woman whose autopbiography gives us fascinating insights into the tumultuous period in which she lived. Professor Beattie is part of the Thornton project based at the University of Edinburgh, funded by the AHRC 2021-24. The project's main output was a digital edition of the 4 MSS of Alice Thornton (1626-1707).

Join Andrea Zuvich, The Seventeenth Century Lady, as she welcomes historian Dr Linda Porter, who specialises in the Tudors and Stuarts and has published several highly-acclaimed nonfiction works, including: Crown of Thistles: The Fatal Inheritance of Mary Queen of Scots (2013), Tudors Versus Stewarts: The Fatal Inheritance of Mary Queen of Scots (2014), Royal Renegades: The Children of Charles I and the English Civil Wars (2016), and Mistresses: Sex and Scandal at the Court of Charles II (2020). Andrea and Linda will chat about the Stuarts, their lives, the myths and perceptions about them, and their legacy: from Mary, Queen of Scots, Charles II and James II and their mistresses, to Queen Anne.
