SUMMARY:Abigail Reynolds' Lost Libraries  - fully booked
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT IS NOW FULLY BOOKED…\n‘Normal’ service is on its way…\nWe are delighted to let you know that we are making a tentative step towards resuming our talks programme\, and the first of these promises to be quite special. Numbers by necessity need to be reduced in the Reading Room\, so this will ‘sell out’ quite fast – apologies to those who miss out this time. We will retain a waiting list in case of cancellations. As ever\, we ask for a donation at the door\, and you can book by contacting the library. Refreshments will be served afterwards. \n  \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn 2016 Abigail Reynolds became the third recipient of the BMW Art Journey\, for her project The Ruins of Time: Lost Libraries of the Silk Road. Abigail made a five-month long journey to fifteen library sites along the Silk Road. The libraries were lost to political conflicts\, natural catastrophes\, revolutions\, and wars. \nReynolds’ journey was based on extensive research and took her to sites dating from 291 BC to 2011 AD\, including libraries along the whole length of the Silk Road – in China\, Uzbekistan\, Turkey\, Egypt\, Italy\, and Iran. Along the way\, Reynolds gathered material on sixteen mm film\, and by written text. \nAt Morrab library she will be talking about her book ‘Lost Libraries’ – a document of her travels which completes a journey that both starts and ends with the institution of the library. \n“The lost libraries are sad and lonely sites\, once full of voices in discussion. What was previously known\, though\, is perhaps never really lost. The enlightenment offered by the libraries is now extinguished\, but the embrace of the dark is not the same as despair.”\n– Abigail Reynolds \nWednesday 3rd November\, 2pm\nBooking Essential\n£5 Suggested Donation

SUMMARY:Ivor Gurney by Diana Taylor – Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:FULLY BOOKED.\nThis event is now fully subscribed. Please get in touch if you would like to be added to the reserve list. \nIvor Gurney 1890-1937\, was not only a WW1 Poet but also a brilliant composer. He studied under Sir Charles Villier Stanford at the Royal College of Music and he was a contemporary of Vaughan Williams. \nHe suffered from depression and this was exacerbated by his experience of WW1 on the Somme. \nThe theme of the film is the contrast between his life experiencing the horrors of WW1 and his love of the Gloucestershire landscape\, which inspired much of his poetry and music including A Gloucestershire Rhapsody 1919 -1921. \nThe film sets Gurney in Gloucestershire and weaves this with his war poetry set to his composition War Elegy 1920 and WW1 footage. The film includes much of his beautiful piano music. \nThe film is a Redcliffe Films Production which is supported by the Newlyn International Film Festival. It has been shown at many festivals in the UK and Europe. \nTuesday 12th November\, 1 – 3.30pm\nBooking Essential / £4 suggested donation
