SUMMARY:Folklore & Women: The power of folklore in reclaiming female storie
 s
LOCATION:Neeld Community & Arts Centre
DESCRIPTION:Explore the power of folklore and how it helps bring women’s 
 hidden stories back into the spotlight. Followed by Q&A.\n\nWomen's storie
 s have often been hidden or overlooked\, with history mostly told from men
 ’s perspectives. But women have always shared their stories – through 
 oral traditions and conversations among themselves. Think of women’s sal
 ons in 17th and 18th century France where modern fairytales were born\, or
  the deeper meanings behind tales of selkies and sirens.\n\nThis talk expl
 ores how folklore preserves and shares women’s experiences\, through sto
 ries about monsters\, mermaids\, and marriage plots. We’ll journey aroun
 d the world to meet the women in these tales and the women who collected t
 hem. By uncovering these forgotten stories\, we gain a better understandin
 g of history and discover new ways to imagine the future.\n\nDoors open at
  7pm\, talk starts at 7.30pm - come down early to grab a good seat!\n\nFol
 low us on IG @seedtalks\n\nSpeaker Bio:\n\nDr Joan Passey is a Senior Lect
