The Bayeux Tapestry: A Graphic Novel of 1066
Update: 2023-09-08
Description
In this 60’s time travel event, we explore deep! We’re in the 1060s, further, in history than we’ve ever gone on YLT.
How can a simple craft help us to think about a complex, political and military event? We examine the Norman conquest, the battle of Hastings, through the Bayeux tapestry.
You’ll meet the major players and dig deeper to discover some of the incongruous and enigmatic characters on the art piece.
We’ll think about how the embroidery has survived a millennium while being threatened and used for political power.
And finally, we’ll consider the Bayeux embroidery as inspiration for homage and satire.
