M1 MEEF Overview of British history since the Romans: all the podcasts and slides. Six hours of podcasts and two hours of video

 

These classes were mostly put together to provide an overview/revision of British history for M1 enseignement. Other students, for the agrégation, for example, may find them useful for revision purposes.

We looked briefly at the main highlights of British history since the Romans. Here you have all the recordings and slides in the same place.

There were four weeks of classes. Here are the slides which cover the whole of the four week course.
