It is known that the empress Agrippina, Nero's mother, wrote an autobiography but unfortunately it hasn't survived . Even though the chances are slim I still hope that this book is waiting on a dark shelf of an obscure monastery to be discovered by a courageous researcher.
I literally just watched a documentary about Nero's beginnings on Friday and that Agrippina had a sad ending. It would be interesting to know more about her from her own words.
Something tells me that given the time it has passed and the way she fell from grace, the chances of finding that autobiography are very very very slim
According to the public of that time all we know about Nero today is a lie. The citizens were just as literate them as they are now. In most cases multi lingual. The slaves did all the business of the day so they were very much multi lingual. Anyway, hundreds of thousands of artifacts, letters, etc have been found in garbage heaps, graffiti, etc claiming the people absolutely loved Nero. That he was a true blessing to the citizens and it was the senate who hated him. It was they whom began a propaganda campaign against him. Much like the cia against Trump today. I'd like to know for sure which side is telling the truth. Although I know already the citizens are. Because we don't need monuments built to tell us people are bad. We only do that when they are loved and the state needs to convince the next generation otherwise.
Would love to see a video on the religious art created during the Tudor era. It was such a tumultuous time, in terms of religion, I would like to see how artists were expressing their beliefs, and what prior time periods they drew inspiration from. (For instance, the way artists of the Dark Ages patterned their Madonna and Child after Egypt’s Isis.) 🖼️ 🎨 👩🎨
@garyallen8824 no, I did not say or imply that I am pro-censorship. I merely pointed out that it is nice to see the physical evidence that censorship is not a recent invention. One always hears the “history is written by the victors” spiel and now we have proof.
Thank you, Dr. Kat, for producing such interesting and informative videos! I very much enjoy not only your content, but the manner in which you present it. I live in a rural area in Western Maryland and know very few people who share my interest in English history. I truly appreciate you and your channel.
I've been obsessed with Elizabeth I since I was 7 (and a lot more figures/events as I've gotten older) and it was definitely lonely before finding all the awesome historians and fellow always-students online. It's so nice having ways to always explore and find new content, research, etc
I am an American listening. I am fascinated by the pilgrims who went to Leiden then onto the new world. The Pilgrims appear to be separatists, not Puritans. I would like to know more about what drove these groups to actually leave Europe w/out them being lumped together.
We must always remember that history is written from someone’s point of view and the facts that are presented are always bias even when when trying our best to be truth and unbiased.🫅👑🌹🏰 Dr. Kat , your presentations always look at not only the historical event, but the background, sources and the attached biases. Your work is excellent and always a joy to behold!
I think that the present is also written from someone else’s point of view. You only have to look at how the various newspapers report the same incident to see that there are biases and points of view that dictate how they report current affairs.
In high school I took extension history (a subject which looks at history and how it is told) and this was a big part of it, as well as the different lenses History can be viewed through.
I can't remember what it was, but I read an intriguing theory where it was posited that Henry the 8th's difficulty with fathering a male heir was due to Rh factor incompatibility or McLeod syndrome, another blood antigen disorder . Being in the medical field, this theory fascinated me, and the way it was presented checked out. I doubt any genetic testing would be allowed, but that would be an interesting thing to find out. Staying within the Tudor family, I think it was mentioned that Elizabeth the first may have had Marfan syndrome (but I don't think this theory is especially likely ). Fascinating video, as always.
Other than the obvious crown emoji, I think that some possible contenders for an Elizabethan-themed emoji include: 1. 🌍 or 🌎 (the globe) - This can obviously be because of the beginnings of globalization and the numerous colonies under Elizabeth I, but also a reference to the Armada Portrait, where she's holding a globe. 2. 💃 (the dancing woman) - Queen Elizabeth I loved dancing, so this one feels like an obvious choice to me. 3. 🧦 (socks) - This choice might seem a bit odd, but as someone who loves knitting-themed history tidbits, there are 2 well-known stories that often make me think of socks whenever I think of Queen Elizabeth I: First, there's that story about how, shortly after she became queen, a lady-in-waiting gifted her her first ever pair of knitted silk stockings. Up until that point in her life, Elizabeth had only worn/owned woven wool stockings. She was so delighted with her new pair that she declared that she would only ever silk knitted stockings for the rest of her life. Second, there was a man named William Lee who invented the first ever knitting machine; when he showed it to Elizabeth I, she refused to grant him a patent, and explained that it was because she did not want to destroy the livelihoods of those who knit stockings for a living.
Wow! I would say that you are entitled to be feeling a bit more than smug. I was basically taught that Elizabeth indicated that it was her wish that James succeed her on the throne by a gesture, as she was too ill to speak. 👑
I would love a video on the most important English antiquaries and their famous discoveries and works. In many cases, their records and drawings are all we have of lost places and events. Thanks, Dr. Kat. Love your channel❤
Really interesting video. When it comes to a history mystery, I've always wished that the two children's skeletons found under the tower of london were DNA tested to confirm whether or not they are the princes of the tower who went missing. I don't really understand why the royal family don't want to have that confirmed, when they were perfectly happy to provide DNA for the murdered Romanovs to confirm those bodies found. It might give us more clues as to what happened to the princes and who is to blame, but for now we just don't know.
I think perhaps a valuable and timely reminder that written historical documents as they come to us are not neutral or necessarily 100% accurate to real life...? Even though they do tend to be relied on so heavily in academic research, and also usually given great weight over oral or pictorial accounts (or even contextual object finds)? Kudos Dr. Kat as always for your clear, fluent & concise narration (presumably from pre-written script?) even in a livestream! Not all RUclipsrs manage such a natural style when transmitting live! Gosh, an Elizabethan emoji... Perhaps this one 💎 Given how invested their monied classes and nobles/royals were in the conspicuous display of wealth at the time?! 😝
another fascinating piece of history brought to light. Historians are among my favourite people and Dr. Kat is one of the most informative - thank you for your content 😊
👸 Thank you for another wonderful podcast. And to think that somebody actually edited to historical documents! Who knew? And this is the best Elizabeth Emoji I could find.
This is so interesting. Your analysis and the analysis of the doctoral student makes sense. I know that history that I have personally witnessed and experienced isn't necessarily portrayed as I saw it. ❤❤
After seeing records being sealed by the British monarchy recently, I now am very curious about how many secrets will ever come out about the royals of the past. All very intriguing.
I agree that, having steadfastly refused to name a successor all this time, Elizabeth is not at all likely to have changed her mind at the last minute and signaled her approval of James. I wonder if she really would have approved of him? If she didn’t, that’s all the more reason for her to have said nothing at all!
She did approve of him. She and her advisors were prepping him and she was in contact with him. She simply was never going to name a successor anyways.
I had read of this discovery but found your discussion of the context and probable reasons for the changes fascinating. I’d like to hear more about the roles in court, and how people used the savages gained by these appointments. ❤
Hello Dr. Kat! I absolutely LOVE your videos-thank you for making them. I tried to leave an emoji, but RUclips wasn't having it. Instead, and this is not so much a mystery, but I have a question that has been on my mind for a while now, or a possible idea for a future video? How violent was the ‘Pilgrimage of Grace’ of 1536? I hear different versions from different historians. It doesn’t sound like it was a violent protest… or was it? How bad would it have been so bad as to scare Henry VIII? Or was he so indignant that his people would make demands of him, for his violent (and very underhanded) response? Or was he being ignorant, or arrogant, to the demands of his people? Also, were any Reformers involved? I understand that a great deal of a county’s economy often relied on the prosperity of the Abbeys… would the Reformers be concerned about this as well? Thank you- Love from Canada!
This period is so fascinating. Exploration of the world, the records that were kept, the splitting up of the church, science was beginning to become mainstream. So many interesting characters.🌎
Thank you Dr Kat, you have a wonderful speaking voice, an amazing way explaining. I have always be fascinated by history and religions. How they enter twine and how they have shaped our world. I’ve enjoyed every one of the subjects you’ve brought to life for us. So, thank you
🧱🧱🍗 ⚔️ 🕯️ 👑..A few red bricks for Hampton Court, a swan drum stick, swords, a candle and *THE* crown for Elizabethan England. Ha! I am also feeling a bit smug with this new discovery! I have always doubted *Elizabeth I* would willing designate James as her rightful successor. I have honestly always thought she died without naming anyone. Thank you and cheers!
This is a comment about how much I enjoy and learn from this channel. Thank you for all you do to inform us about so many fascinating subjects. I look forward to the future installments you post.
I need to read Camden to gain a greater understanding on this topic. Unlike other books I haven’t read yet (Suetonius is giving me a glare from the bookshelf), I didn’t know Camden existed. 📕 📖 📚 👑👑🕯️⏳⌛️
Hello from South Africa, Dr Kat. I would like to thank you for your fabulous videos and for the way you teach history so that the persons become so very human. I have always found history fascinating and you definitely feed my appetite for it! ❤❤❤
More what ifs please ❤Also a friend of mine has just been accepted to join the Charterhouse community Given it is such an historic establishment an investigation by you of its history would be of great interest
Archbishop John Whitgift was reportedly requested to be by Elizabeth’s side during her final days/hours and has subsequently almost disappeared from written history. His crest is also missing from Canterbury Cathedral. Does this new discovery shed any light on John Whitgift potentially witnessing the lack of communication from Elizabeth in naming her successor? Could this be why he ‘disappeared’ from favour and record soon afterwards?
TY Dr. Kat for ALL TH E WORK U put into your research And Presentation of THAT research! You put SO MUCH into bringing us ALL this knowledge and bringing us So Many videos! 😊
thank you so much. would love to know more about the mystery of the death of Amy Robstart Lord Robert Dudleys wife. Did she die by accident or who ordered her death 21:1721:17
I haven't actually heard of William Camden before. His life sounds very interesting, and the insights about his writing on the Elizabethan age are fascinating. Hopefully as time goes on will learn more about events of the past by finding new ways to examine the historical documents.
Thanks so much! I'd like to see a video on some of those who lived a long life and prospered, despite being in Henry VIII's court. And what was the likelihood of surviving his court? ⛵
I love how you feel vindicated about Elizabeth naming a successor, I’ve watched your previous videos about her and I agree with you. Actually, I’m fascinated with Elizabeth I’s story 🏰
I am wondering how, when previously unavailable information is uncovered (in this case, literally UNDER canon documents), historians determine which version is closest to the true recording of events? It seems in this case that the BM is interpreting the heretofore hidden information as closer to the truth, so how have they determined that the final drafts were embellishments or simply less accurate? Couldn't the overwrite have been to correct the first draft because that was inaccurate? How in the world do historians decide which version to propound as most factual? As always, I really enjoyed your presentation. 🦁📖
Found it all quite fascinating! It is possible to unearth new information on subjects that we think we’ve exhausted. Gives me hope we’ll find out more about Stonehenge! Hahaha 👑🇬🇧🏴📚🎓
I'd love some information about the collection of relics held by the Elector "Friedrich der Weise" during the German Reformation... I always wondered if they were given away, put in storage, destroyed....
I'm pretty sure John only had one nephew from an older brother: Arthur of Brittany, his brother Geoffrey's son. He'd been Richard I's heir, but Richard changed his mind when he was dying & named John instead, as Arthur was only ~12. When he was ~15, he allied with the French king & rebelled against John, & John had him imprisoned. He was never seen again, & it's most likely John had him killed. And since John doesn't have a society full of obsessive fans like Richard III has, nobody really argues with this extremely reasonable conclusion...
@@erinrising2799 That would be major news to me! To the best of my knowledge, Richard & Berengaria had no children at all, & certainly not a son who was alive at Richard's death: I can't imagine Richard disinheriting his own legitimate son for John, or people not wanting a legitimate son of the great Richard the Lionheart, or many people seriously preferring John. Richard did have one illegitimate son, but I'm not aware of anyone suggesting him as a successor- only John & Arthur.
Only a bit in but had a record scratch moment when you quoted Dr. Wyman Herendeen - who works at the institution I received my BA in History. One of those moments of recognition you aren't expecting. He was chair of the English department for a long while when I worked in the college in the Dean's Office. Nice fellow, from the limited interactions I had with him (I worked primarily with arts departments).
Wonderful presentation, and I'm now subscribed. I would LOVE some definitive info on the Princes in the Tower. Thanks for the fascinating vid. I'm off to binge your channel:)

🕯🍖 Okay, it's not very "Elizabethan" but a candle and joint of roasted meat is certainly associated with the Tudor court. 😋

I'm pretty sure John only had one nephew from an older brother: Arthur of Brittany, his brother Geoffrey's son. He'd been Richard I's heir, but Richard changed his mind when he was dying & named John instead, as Arthur was only ~12. When he was ~15, he allied with the French king & rebelled against John, & John had him imprisoned. He was never seen again, & it's most likely John had him killed. And since John doesn't have a society full of obsessive fans like Richard III has, nobody really argues with this extremely reasonable conclusion...
@@beth7935 I thought I'd read that Richard had a son with Baringaria (sp?)
@@erinrising2799 That would be major news to me! To the best of my knowledge, Richard & Berengaria had no children at all, & certainly not a son who was alive at Richard's death: I can't imagine Richard disinheriting his own legitimate son for John, or people not wanting a legitimate son of the great Richard the Lionheart, or many people seriously preferring John. Richard did have one illegitimate son, but I'm not aware of anyone suggesting him as a successor- only John & Arthur.
Think of all the discoveries to come! 💀💕
The princes in the tower and the consummation of Arthur and Catherine’s marriage
Only a bit in but had a record scratch moment when you quoted Dr. Wyman Herendeen - who works at the institution I received my BA in History. One of those moments of recognition you aren't expecting. He was chair of the English department for a long while when I worked in the college in the Dean's Office. Nice fellow, from the limited interactions I had with him (I worked primarily with arts departments).
Thanks for all ur content, Chicago Illinois
