Medieval Pleasures. Sex Drugs and Rock and Roll in the Middle Ages

Speaker: Keith Smith

When the word Medieval is mentioned, one conjures up images of death, disease and depravity. 
But what was life in the Middle Ages in Europe really like?
What did people eat and drink?
What leisure activities did they pursue?
What were attitudes to sex? When could they have sex? When not? Who decided this? and what happened when the rules were broken?
To find the answers to these questions and more, and to find some common myths about the Middle Ages challenged, come along to this whimsical presentation.
