The Preserved Girl-Corpse of Ancient Rome
Om avsnittet
In last week’s episode we noted that, while at Oxford in the 1920s, author Gertrude Trevelyan was the first woman to be awarded the Newdigate Prize. It was for her 250-line, blank verse poem about a perfectly-preserved young woman from ancient Rome who was discovered during the Italian Renaissance. In this week’s episode, join us as we “dig a little deeper” to find out more about the fascinating true story that inspired Trevelyan’s poem.
