Looking For Susanna Hall Tickets and Dates

Taking place on Zoom on the second Wednesday of every month, our online Research Conversations provide you with the opportunity to listen to people who are engaged in Shakespeare-related research.

On 13 July we meet with Dr Ailsa Grant Ferguson, as part of the early stages of a new research project to discuss how we might imagine multiple versions of a woman's life.

How do we remember women of the seventeenth century? Who might Susanna Hall have been? She features in the Shakespeare story; we know her as a daughter, a wife and a mother. But was she a healer? A writer, and reader? A gardener and householder? A negotiator and a thinker? What lives might this early modern woman have lived? How might we use Hall's Croft, once her home, as an artefact through which to learn more about Susanna, and about the lives of other early modern women?

Led by Dr Ailsa Grant Ferguson, University of Brighton.

The event begins with a thirty minute presentation and will be followed by an open discussion. Please note this is an online event held on Zoom.
