Onyeka Nubia is a pioneering and internationally renowned historian, writer and presenter committed to the study of comparative histories and intersectionalism. Nubia has been a keynote presenter at numerous venues including the Houses of Parliament and the National Portrait Gallery, and has been a consultant and presenter for television programmes including BBC Two’s History Cold Case and Channel 4’s London’s Lost Graveyard. He is the writer of Blackamoores: Africans in Tudor England (2013) and Young Othello (2015).
`One of the most moving aspects of the book is its presentation of ordinary black Tudor lives, in country villages as well as the metropolis. Nubia seeks to restore their place in the story and in the nation.' Ewan Fernie, The Shakespeare Institute, University of Birmingham (Stratford-upon-Avon) `An exciting work, well-researched and well-written, and offering a new perspective. It provides evidence not only of the African presence but also demonstrates that Africans were a normal and integrated part of English society.' Hakim Adi, University of Chichester `A fascinating, rigorously researched and readable book restoring the Black presence to early modern British history. Onyeka offers a bold interpretation with significant repercussions for understanding Tudor society, revealing much too about our own times.' Paul Ward, Edge Hill University
