Description
Tudor Networks of Power explores the intricate networks of power and influence that shaped Tudor history from 1509 to 1603. A groundbreaking collaboration between an historian and a physicist, this book uses computational analysis of the British State Papers to reveal the structure and reach of the Tudor government's intelligence network. The authors employ methods from network science to examine the Tudor government's networks, shedding light on key questions such as their geographical coverage, patterns of surveillance, and the role of women. By applying these macroscopic tools to a rich archive of 130,000 letters, the authors provide new insights into the Tudor period. This book offers a unique perspective on one of history's most fascinating periods, using accessible language and examples drawn from the State Papers archive.
