For centuries, feminist writers and thinkers have turned to myths, legends, fairytales, religious stories, and cultural traditions to make sense of women’s experiences. All of these come under the umbrella of ‘folklore’. This talk will explore the enduring relevance of folklore, asking how these stories can be reclaimed and reimagined for the 21st-century feminist. We’ll trace figures like the witch, the shapeshifter, and the maiden across different traditions, examining the societal norms they were created to enforce and how feminist thinkers have reshaped them into symbols of resistance and possibility. Finally, we will ask why we continually return to ancient stories to tell new ones - does this suggest that we’re out of new stories, or is it a part of a longstanding literary tradition in women’s writing, to look back, to subvert dominant myths, and to challenge the patriarchal ideas embedded in our society? Speaker Bio: Dr Shelby Judge is a Lecturer in Creative and Cultural Industries at the University of Derby, where she researches digital feminist and popular feminist responses to Incels and the Manosphere. She recently completed her PhD in English Literature at the University of Glasgow, for which she produced the thesis Contemporary Feminist Adaptations of Greek Myth. Due to the proliferating nature of this genre, Shelby’s work in this field is ongoing. Presented by Seed Talks This is an 18+ event

David Lynch was a rare breed-an uncompromisingly experimental filmmaker who somehow found mainstream success. Yet while many can name his films and TV shows, fewer have actually watched them, and even fewer truly engaged with them. Lynch’s work is enigmatic, playing with the form of cinema while critiquing Hollywood itself. Above all, he resists easy interpretation. His films aren’t puzzles to be solved but experiences to be felt. In this talk, Dr Peter Sloane explores Lynch's influences, his distinctive aesthetics, and his wider artistic pursuits. We’ll take a closer look at his most cryptic films-not to “decode” them, but to trace his recurring themes and obsessions. Doors open at 7pm , talk starts at 7:30pm - come down early to grab a good seat! Follow us on IG @seedtalks Speaker Bio: Dr Peter Sloane is Senior Lecturer in English at the University of Buckingham. He is the author of From Rupture to Refuge: The Coordinates of Contemporary Refugee Narratives (Liverpool UP 2025), Kazuo Ishiguro’s Gestural Poetics (Bloomsbury 2021), and David Foster Wallace and the Body (Routledge 2019).

Karl Marx died in 1883, yet his ideas remain as relevant as ever. In mainstream academia and media, he is often dismissed as an outdated Victorian thinker-a mere "Dead White Man"-or vilified as the inspiration behind oppressive Communist regimes. But these portrayals are misleading. Marx dedicated his life to understanding and critiquing capitalism. He viewed it as both liberating-unleashing human productive potential-and destructive as it thrives on the exploitation of labor and drives societies toward economic crises and environmental catastrophe. We live in a world marked by economic instability, geopolitical conflict, and escalating climate chaos. In this talk, Alex Callinicos will explore how Marx’s attempts to uncover the inner logic of these crises make him a profoundly contemporary thinker. His critique of capitalism was rooted in the idea of freedom-that true human liberation means being free from all forms of exploitation and oppression, with control over our own lives. As we examine his ideas, we’ll consider how well Marx’s thinking holds up in the world today. Doors open at 7pm, talk starts at 7:30pm - come down early to grab a good seat! Follow us on IG @seedtalks Alex Callinicos was born in Zimbabwe and studied at Oxford University and the London School of Economics. He is an Emeritus Professor of European Studies at King’s College London and previously taught for many years at the University of York. Presented by Seed Talks This is an 18+ event
