‘As soon as we die we enter into fiction’

The Reith Lectures

Available for over a year

Author, Hilary Mantel, argues that once we cannot speak for ourselves, it is up to others to interpret us. She says historical evidence never provides all the information, therefore, history requires subjective interpretations. First broadcast on The Reith Lectures: The Day Is for the Living, 13 June 2017.
