About this Event
In Shakespeare's plays, male characters often dominate, yet the few female roles are crucial, highlighting women’s defiance and ambition. Although Shakespeare's women seldom wield political power, they are just as ambitious and ruthless as their male counterparts. They are depicted as strong and complex figures, exemplified by characters like Beatrice, Lady Macbeth, and Juliet. Shakespeare provides vivid imagery and descritions of his characters which Tess has brought to life in the form of enamel jewellery pieces.
Tessa Morrision joins us to talk about her book Bejewelling Shakespeare's Women and the pieces she has created as the result of her research.
