Professor Janina Ramirez will deliver a public lecture at York St John on 11 November exploring how overlooked women in history could shape a fairer future.
Best-selling author and documentary maker Professor Janina Ramirez will deliver the Ebor Lecture at York St John Creative Centre on Wednesday, 11 November. The evening will explore how women throughout history have been misrepresented and how these narratives have influenced today's gender divide.
The lecture will highlight overlooked female figures from the past and consider how a fuller historical record could help build a fairer future. Professor Ramirez's work, including her new book Legenda, examines 'herstory' for the purpose of social transformation, inclusion and gender equality.
Professor Esther McIntosh, director of the Centre for Religion in Society at York St John University, said the university was 'delighted to be able to host this lecture and book signing'. The Ebor Lectures were established in 2006 to explore the intersection of theology, society and public life.
