About this Event
What does Advent really mean? To understand this season of waiting and expectation, we need to return to its ancient liturgy. Exploring the extraordinary texts and rituals of Advent, this talk reveals a world of prophecy, longing, darkness and approaching light, and traces the influence of this liturgy through music, art, and literature, from William Byrd to J.R.R. Tolkien.
