Britain today is an increasingly precarious place. Many of us aren’t used to precarity - a condition of uncertainty and exposure as emotional as it is economic. But to the average Elizabethan it was the norm. These podcasts use the works of Thomas Nashe and his contemporaries to explore what precarity meant then, and what it means now. Funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Coucil.

Join us as we explore the gritty underbelly of Elizabethan England: a time, not of pageants and prosperity, but precarity, poverty, and paranoia.
