Finding the Snake goddess: new poems by Ruth Padel
In conjunction with Labyrinth: Knossos, Myth and Reality, the current exhibition in the Ashmolean Museum, and part of the project 'The Many Lives of a Snake Goddess', Ruth Padel will read poems on the Snake Goddess figurines found at Knossos in 1903 by Sir Arthur Evans.
Ellen Adams (KCL); Nicoletta Momigliano (Bristol); Christine Morris (TCD); and Andrew Shapland (Oxford) will introduce Ruth Padel’s performance with a short archaeological and historical talk on the figurines and join her afterwards for Q&A with the audience.
An in-person event, all welcome - no booking required.
This event will also be live-streamed. Check the APGRD website for the streaming link on the day.
