Feared and Revered lecture series – Perceptions of Power

Inspired by our latest exhibition, Feared and Revered: Feminine Power through the Ages, this lecture series presents a wide array of thought-provoking topics, all connected by the diverse experiences of women through the ages.

Perceptions of Power: Goddesses, Muses and Mortals

In the first of the series, join Dr Monica M Jackson, classical archaeologist and specialist in Hellenistic gold jewellery as she discusses the multifaceted and contradictory perceptions of female power in both the ancient and the modern worlds.
