Event details

Part of the English Work in Progress Seminars 2017-18

In this seminar, Marianne will explore an exciting new project she's beginning, bringing together textual analysis, mapping, potential impact/heritage possibilities - and lots of detective work.  She will look at Latin and Insular French texts from the 'Marvels of Britain' tradition, considering how versions of the text remember and forget previously recorded marvels, and use marvels to forge connections between place and memory.
