The People of the Peasants’ Revolt
| A talk by Matt Lewis – In the summer of 1381, the first well documented popular rising in England shook the political foundations of a nation. A teenage king sought to deal with a populace pushed beyond what they could tolerate. What sparked the Peasants’ Revolt? Why is the name it has been given misleading? What can those wrapped up in the revolt, as rebels and victims, tell us about medieval England? The people of the Peasants’ Revolt are waiting to tell their stories.
