The Law Before Magna Carta

May 12 @ 11:30 am - 4:00 pm

FREE WORKSHOP
Sandwich lunch provided

Ahead of our Magna Carta 1225 exhibition in the summer, we’re running a taster workshop in partnership with colleagues on Project FRRAnt. The workshop showcases key findings of this European Research Council-funded project, looking at how the Romans approached matters of jurisprudence. Professor Valentina Arena FSA (Camden Professor of Ancient History, University of Oxford) provides an overview of the project. Then we will hear expert talks from Dr Antonino Pitta (Catholic University of Milan, and FRRAnt team member) and Professor Anthony Musson FSA (Historic Royal Palaces and Council member and Trustee of SAL). Finally, there will be a show and tell of Roman objects from our collections, and opportunities to reflect on the meaning of Magna Carta then and now.

All welcome but numbers are limited so booking is essential.

The event is kindly supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund as part of the Magna Carta 1225 exhibition.
