As a Holiday special we present to you a particularly festive story from Socialist writer and academic China Miéville! We are finally back, after too many technical and health issues, but back!

Episode 28 - A trip to Mythology and the Violent Field of Art. On Neil Gaiman’s Nordic Retelling

Hello everyone! This time we experimented with something slightly different from our usual material, we talked a retelling from Nordic Mythology! In particular from Neil Gaiman's collection of it.

We focused on a particular one "The Mead of Poetry" and expanded wildly on art, creation, then onto the proper Left part of the show. Towards the violence involved in poetry and literature's world, and how understanding the world and the material conditions are invaluable to understanding the work itself. An attempted light talk delved Left, so par for the course, really! We hope you find it fun and interesting as well!
