ON-DEMAND: HistoryExtra Autumn Talks - Oliver Cromwell: Saint or Serpent?

About This Webinar

This is an on-demand recording of the live event that took place on 7th October 2021.

Cromwell has been the only commoner ever to become supreme head of a British state, and as such has a unique place in history; but has also long been a deeply controversial figure, dividing those who see him as one of the greatest of Britons from those who view him as a usurper, tyrant and fanatic. This lecture, based on new research, is designed to show why he is such a complex figure and to provide its own assessment of his character.
