SUMMARY:The British Isles: Poetry and History
DESCRIPTION:This group offers the chance to take a guided tour through The Penguin Book of English Verse\, exploring contributions from 1500 to the present day. The intention is to read and discuss two or three poems from each decade. There may be occasional sorties away from the main book when the group leader or a member is disappointed at the absence of some favourite. The literary and historical context of each poem can be explored\, dependent on the limits of our knowledge! \nPotential group members will need a copy of this the magnificent anthology (it’s a very large paperback!) – in the version edited by Paul Keegan.

SUMMARY:Greek Classical Literature
DESCRIPTION:Western theatre has its roots in the theatre of Ancient Greece. Written over 2\,000 years ago\, the Tragedies deal with the big themes of love\, loss\, pride\, power\, and the relationship between man and the gods. \nWe read and discuss the plays and share any information we discover from other sources. \nWe are currently reading Ted Hughes’ translation of the Oresteia by Aeschylus \nWe meet at 10am on the 3rd Thursday of the month (Except December) in the Margaret Kemp Room at the Quaker Meeting House.

SUMMARY:Greek Classical Literature
DESCRIPTION:Western theatre has its roots in the theatre of Ancient Greece. Written over 2\,000 years ago\, the Tragedies deal with the big themes of love\, loss\, pride\, power\, and the relationship between man and the gods. \nWe read and discuss the plays and share any information we discover from other sources. \nWe are currently reading Ted Hughes’ translation of the Oresteia by Aeschylus \nWe meet at 10am on the 3rd Thursday of the month (Except December) in the Margaret Kemp Room at the Quaker Meeting House.

SUMMARY:The British Isles: Poetry and History
DESCRIPTION:This group offers the chance to take a guided tour through The Penguin Book of English Verse\, exploring contributions from 1500 to the present day. The intention is to read and discuss two or three poems from each decade. There may be occasional sorties away from the main book when the group leader or a member is disappointed at the absence of some favourite. The literary and historical context of each poem can be explored\, dependent on the limits of our knowledge! \nPotential group members will need a copy of this the magnificent anthology (it’s a very large paperback!) – in the version edited by Paul Keegan.
