Notwithstanding spring flowers and birdsong, are we living in wintry times? In terms of our spiritual or religious life, what lessons do Eastern traditions have for the West?
Join former Archbishop of Canterbury and Master of Magdalene College, Cambridge, Regius Professor of Divinity at both Oxford and Cambridge, and author of many books, Rowan Williams, in conversation with Matt Holland, Catherine Okoronkwo and Simon Stevenette, as he introduces us to some aspects and personalities of the Orthodox Christian world, from the desert contemplatives of the fourth century to philosophers, novelists, and activists of the modern era, that suggest where we might look for fresh light and warmth.
Premiered live at 12pm Friday 7th May at 12pm as part of the Swindon Festival of Literature 2021
