Dr Jenni Hyde
Lecturer in Early Modern HistoryResearch Overview
I work mainly on Tudor and Stuart history, and in particular, sixteenth-century ballads in print, manuscript and the oral tradition. My current research investigates the ballads associated with the Pilgrimage of Grace. I’m also beginning research into the links between sixteenth-century ballads, psalms and epitaphs, as well as some work on Fake News or Fact in Topical Ballads, and the ballads of the Armada period.
