Milton & The English Civil Wars
Tuesday 5th March 2024, from 6pm GMT
Professor Blair Worden, Emeritus Fellow of St Edmund’s Hall, Oxford, is this year’s guest lecturer. He will explore Milton’s relationship with the English Civil Wars, charting the course of the revolution through Milton’s eyes and relating his writings to the ferment of ideas that accompanied these extraordinary events.
His talk will be delivered as a hybrid lecture to a live audience at the atmospheric Mercers’ Hall – home to the City of London’s oldest livery company – where the ticket price includes drinks and canapes after the lecture. For those unable to be with us in person, we hope you might be able to join us virtually via Zoom.
Tickets cost £25 in-person and £10 via Zoom, with all proceeds supporting Milton’s Cottage – Milton’s only surviving residence.
