Hilary Mantel 'The Wolf Hall Trilogy' in discussion with Janet Dickinson and Lynn Robson

Oxford Festival of the Arts in collaboration with Christ Church Oxford
Join Dr Lynn Robson, Fellow in English Literature, currently writing a book on the Wolf Hall trilogy, and Dr Janet Dickinson – a Tudor historian and Fellow in Early Modern History at Kellogg – for a discussion of Hilary Mantel’s iconic trilogy – a vivid retelling of Thomas Cromwell’s life, career, and death. Welcome to the debate! Who tells the best story – history, or literature? Following the talk, there will be the opportunity to visit the exhibition, which will also be displaying Thomas Wolsey’s Epistle-Lectionary, Christ Church MS. 101 (1528) – a manuscript of impressive craftsmanship, splendour, and magnificence!

Please note that the Upper Library has no step-free access.
