Alice Loxton
A History of Britain through Eighteen Young Lives
Step into the past with historian and broadcaster Alice Loxton as she explores Britain’s past through eighteen lives – from Richard Burton to Elizabeth Tudor – at the pivotal age of eighteen.
From rebellious royals to literary prodigies, this event offers a fresh lens on British history through the eyes of its youth. With her signature wit and vivid storytelling, Loxton invites us to reflect on what it means to come of age – and how young voices have always mattered.
Alice will be in conversation with Daisy Dunn, an award-winning author, classicist, and cultural critic, known for her insightful commentary across the media.
‘Loxton has the novelist’s skill of seeing the world through her characters’ eyes, and the historian’s accuracy of vision.’
