Portals to Past Women's Voices
Event Details
Our latest collaboration with The British Library, featuring Toby Brothers, Vivien Kogut & Jane Wymark.
Drawing together two very different female medieval voices – Chaucer’s Wife of Bath and the twelfth-century author, poet and translator Marie de France – this friendly workshop is structured in the inclusive LitSalon tradition: dynamically facilitated discussion with a weave of contextual insights. A combination of texts and objects illustrates the lives of people in a particular time and place.
“The idea of these sessions is to find little doors through which to step into that world and find ways to relate to it through the poetry and human artefacts as representations of that time.”
Vivien Kogut
There is time set by for a short break, with refreshments included.
JOINING DETAILS:
- An in-person workshop at the British Library led by Toby Brothers, Vivien Kogut and Jane Wymark
- Tuesday 10 December 2024, 6.30 pm
