Janet Ravenscroft
Writer, editor, academic

Huge thanks to the organisers of the Sintra Summer School 2026, at which I presented a paper examining the complex role of Philip II's companions and entertainers in 16th-century Spain and Portugal. (Yes, we are holding swords.)
Hello,
a bit about me:
WHEN PEOPLE ASK ME WHAT I DO it can be tricky to respond in a coherent way because I have so many different roles. This website is intended to provide a little information about my work as a writer (of fiction and non-fiction) and sales person, as well as outlining just a few of the things I do as an academic with a PhD in early modern history. As this site aims to show, I am a Renaissance woman . . .
