The relationship between Britain and its European neighbours has often been a contentious one, with the sixteenth-century Reformation of religion forming a particularly disruptive episode. This talk will look at relations between Tudor England and Europe in terms of both process and impact, and will consider whether that era offers any lessons for remaking our relationship with Europe in the twenty-first century.
