Dr. David Green - Gold Room Lecture - "The Hundred Years War"
27 October 2014 - Dr. David Green presents “The Hundred Years War: A People's History"
The Hundred Years War (1337-1453) dominated life in England and France for well over a century. It became the defining feature of existence for generations. No one was unaffected by the struggle be they knights, clerics, women, peasants, soldiers, peacemakers, or kings. The long war reshaped the nature of governance in England and France and fundamentally altered peoples’ perceptions of themselves and of their national character.
This lecture is based on Dr Green’s book "The Hundred Years War: A People’s History" published by Yale University Press in October 2014.
