Public Talk by Charlotte Cornell, ‘Rooting Aphra: Behn’s Kentish Beginnings’

This talk by Charlotte Cornell from the University of Kent shines light on new archival evidence rooting Behn firmly in county dubbed ‘the garden of England’. Charlotte will explore Behn’s links to the villages of Harbledown, Wye and Sturry, the city of Canterbury itself and Behn’s mother and father’s links to wider Kent.
