How do I use this calendar?

You can click on an event to display further information about it.

The toolbar above the calendar has buttons to view different events. Use the left and right arrow icons to view events in the past and future. The button inbetween returns you to today's view. The button to the right of this shows a mini-calendar to let you quickly jump to any date.

The dropdown box on the right allows you to see a different view of the calendar, such as an agenda or a termly view.

If this calendar has tags, you can use the labelled checkboxes at the top of the page to select just the tags you wish to view, and then click "Show selected". The calendar will be redisplayed with just the events related to these tags, making it easier to find what you're looking for.

Warwick Thursday - Rebecca Stott

Rebecca is a novelist, non-fiction writer, historian and broadcaster. Her fourteen books reflect her curiosity for history, archaeology, feminism, history of science, marine creatures, literature and, sometimes… ghosts. 

 

Her creative non-fiction titles include Darwin and the Barnacle (2003), Darwin’s Ghosts: In Search of the First Evolutionists (2012) and Oyster (2003). 

 

In The Days of Rain (2017), her memoir about growing up inside the closed, secretive cult called the Exclusive Brethren, won the Costa Biography Award in 2017.

 

She will be speaking to us about her third novel, Dark Earth, in which two sixth-century sisters go on the run in the ruins of Roman Londinium.

 

‘It is only when you’ve pieced together a story in several different ways that you realise where the holes are, discover the knowledge that is still missing, the questions you still want to ask.’
