Gresham College LecturesHistorical Fiction from Sir Walter Scott to Georgette Heyer and Hilary MantelUntil the 1970s, historical fiction was a scorned genre that belonged to Georgette Heyer and Jean Plaidy. Over recent decades, literary fiction has turned back to History, from Hilary Mantel’s Thomas Cromwell trilogy to Helen Dunmore, Francis Spufford and Eleanor Catton. In the nineteenth century the historical novel had been more respected, with examples (sometimes impressive, sometimes absurd) from Scott, Dickens, and George Eliot.This lecture will examine the genre’s vicissitudes (while noticing Georgette Heyer’s novelistic virtues).A lecture by John Mullan recorded on 1 March 2023 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.Th...2023-03-061h 02
Reading Jane AustenPride and Prejudice, Chapters 1 to 6In this episode, we look at chapters 1 to 6 of Pride and Prejudice. We talk about how the book sets up the relationship between love and marriage, the way the characters are introduced so gradually, what we see in Darcy and the fact that we quickly learn how much money everyone has.

Flixwatcher: A Netflix Film Review PodcastEp #057 The Magdalene Sisters, with Liam from Spocklight and Eleanor Parker from BygonesIt’s Episode 57! Liam from Spocklight and Eleanor from Bygones join Kobi and Helen to review The Magdalene Sisters, Eleanor’s choice. The Magdalene Sisters is a 2002 film from Peter Mullan that follows the experiences of three young girls sent to the Magdalene ‘laundry’ in 1960s Ireland for their sexual promiscuity. A period in Irish history the Catholic Church would probably not want to celebrate, the laundries became slave houses and the women there suffered horrendous crimes against them. Based on true stories you can probably get the idea that this won’t be a fun film - but it is an i...2018-05-0950 min
Saturday ReviewSaving Mr Banks; Eimear McBride; This American LifeNew film Saving Mr Banks tells the story of Disney's courting of PL Travers - the woman who wrote Mary Poppins.

And could one expect Disney Studios to make a film about their founder that showed him in anything other than a flattering light?Irish writer Eimear McBride's first novel A Girl...2013-11-3041 min
