Our curated three-part virtual lecture series from historian and broadcaster Janina Ramirez offers a fresh look at the medieval world through the women usually written out of it. This first session addresses some of the big themes behind the book, including how history as a subject is changing, the kinds of people we should be looking for, and the tools that we need to uncover lost or hidden narratives. Janina also explores the example of the sixth-century Loftus Princess to reveal the central role played by women in the ideological revolutions of the early medieval period.<\/p>
