Thursday 13 February 18:30 – 20:30. British Library Pigott Theatre and online
Hit the road with the medieval women!
Medieval women from all kinds of backgrounds travelled far and wide. Some travelled for healing, others for fertility, or for spiritual enrichment. This session examines the origins of a tradition that has never stopped evolving, bringing together a panel of especially well-travelled experts. Join them in navigating the lives of medieval women on the move, tracing their tracks to the present day in an exploration of pilgrimages old and new; sacred and profane.
Kate will be playing a musical introduction to this event with award-winning authors/academics Diane Watt, Sara Wheeler and Marion Turner. Arrive early!
