Short History Of...Walter RaleighWalter Raleigh remains one of the most famous figures of the late-Tudor and early-Stuart period. His life epitomised Elizabethan energy and ambition - though many of his grand schemes ended in failure. Raleigh was a soldier, sailor, courtier, writer, politician, explorer, and colonist. Depending on who you ask, he was also a pirate and traitor, or a patriot and hero.So how did this perplexing figure rise from comparatively humble beginnings to become one of Queen Elizabeth’s favourites?

Dan Snow's History HitSir Walter Raleigh's Search for El DoradoSir Walter Raleigh's life was a turbulent one, to say the least. The Elizabethan statesman and explorer climbed to the top rung of Queen Elizabeth's court; he founded the ill-fated Roanoke colony in North America; he was imprisoned in the Tower of London for various offences against the crown - not once, but three times. Ultimately, he was beheaded outside the Palace of Westminster. But perhaps his most outlandish exploits were two failed expeditions to find the legendary city of gold, El Dorado.Mathew Lyon joins us to tell us about what Raleigh was like, and...2024-09-1136 min

Not only would these colonies help provide a buffer against Spain’s control, but it also helped set up a home base for England’s privateering, which allowed English ships to attack Spanish ships, stealing treasure and gaining control of Spanish trade routes in the region.

Coale MindSir Walter Raleigh and President Trump's election lawsuitsIn 1603, Sir Walter Raleigh was convicted of treason and executed based on an out-of-court statement by Lord Cobham -- despite Sir Walter's objection that "[Lord Cobham] is in the house hard by, and may soon be brought hither." The result of Raleigh's trial is a rule against "hearsay" testimony, and that rule was dispositive of a vote-counting case in Michigan last week. Raleigh is best known for introducing tobacco-smoking to Europe, but his legacy is also directly relevant to our ongoing election about the 2020 vote count. 2020-11-0811 min

The Poetry VoiceSir Walter Ralegh's 'What is this life?"Sir Walter Raleigh (1552/54-1618)The hyphenated man. During his life he played so many roles, that at the end he was able to look back and see it as a series of performances. It’s perhaps ironic that while his date of birth may be disputed, the place time and manner of his dying could probably be noted exactly.

HansoniusChristopher Marlowe VS Sir Walter RaleighThe Passionate Shepherd to His Love
by Christopher Marlowe
1599
Come live with me and be my love,
And we will all the pleasures prove
That valleys, groves, hills, and fields
Woods or steepy mountain yields

A cap of flower, and a kirtle
Embroidered all with leaves of myrtle;
