RSA Events at Wilderness: Hannah Rose Woods

Being misty-eyed about the past is nothing new; but what does romanticising our history mean for our present? Historian and star of University Challenge Hannah Rose Woods investigates why nostalgia has been such an enduring state in Britain over hundreds of years, revealing the vast influence that its backwards glance has had on British society, politics, and identity. Debunking pervasive myths about our past, she shines a light on how our nostalgic country’s history has been written, re-written, and (rightly or wrongly) remembered.#RSAWildernessBecome an RSA Events sponsor: https://utm.guru/udI9xDonate to The RSA: https://utm.guru/udNNBFollow RSA Events on Instagram: https://instagram.com/rsa_events/Follow the RSA on Twitter: https://twitter.com/RSAEventsLike RSA Events on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rsaeventsofficialListen to RSA Events podcasts: https://bit.ly/35EyQYU
