Philippa sat down for a fascinating conversation with Ruth Goodman, a living history expert, and author of the ever popular ‘How To Be a Tudor’, among other books.
Ruth explained her approach to living history and casual experimentation to verify historical practices, the importance of practical research in understanding daily routines, how clothing inventories and household tools reveal regional and social differences in historical records, and the role of hearsay, imagery, and disapproval in uncovering the realities of ordinary people’s lives.
