- **Event Description**: Meghan Kobza discusses The Masquerade: A History of Extravagance and Intrigue,
in conversation with Anthony DelaneyAbout this EventWe are delighted toinvite you to an evening withMeghan Kobza discussing her new bookThe Masquerade:A History of Extravagance and IntrigueGlittering masquerades, held at the most fashionable London venues, dominated the calendars of the Georgian elite. A thrilling opportunity to gather, flirt, and consume, hosts such as “Empress of Pleasure” Teresa Cornelys welcomed the great and the good of the day’s glitterati.From bear suits to harlequin outfits, or, in the case of Elizabeth Chudleigh, very little at all, the masquerade was a place of make-believe and revelry, and a party like no other.Meghan Kobza invites us into these dazzling gatherings, and shows how they became a wider cultural obsession, allowing the aristocracy to flaunt their status and enjoy themselves behind the closed doors of opulent ballrooms, dressed by an industry of ever more inventive habit makers.For the rest of society, the masquerade was notorious for mischief and misbehaviour, and a focus for voracious gossip. Lavishly illustrated, full of life and originality, The Masquerade is a revelatory account of an event which captivates us to this day.Meghan will be in conversation with fellow historian Anthony Delaney, whose most recent bookQueer Georgians restores beloved figures who until recently were written out of history.We hope you will be able to join us for what promises to be a fascinating and illuminating evening.  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/5a5ed200-2859-11f1-aadc-c97dd04cf083-rimg-w511-h740-dc2e4e5d-gmir.jpg
