About

Hi – I’m Dr Johanna Strong, an early modern historian focusing on Mary I’s legacy.

My doctoral research focused on posthumous representations of Mary I’s life and reign in the dominant English historical narrative from 1558-1660. I continue to research this topic, expanding my examination to the 1680s.

I am currently a module leader at the University of Winchester for their International Introductory Module: Europe 1500-1789, a teacher of History and Politics at Felsted School, and social media officer and admin assistant for the Royal Studies Network.
