ONLINE COURSE Sex in the garden: pistils, passions and poets
Fri 14 May 2021
online
Gardens are by definition ‘hives’ of sexual activity from the drowsy bee drenched in pollen to the Temples of Venus that entice us into 18th century landscapes where immorality lurks in the ha-ha. This morning course will trip lightly through the biology of pistils, pastimes of pastoral poets, a plethora of amorous potions, with literary delights of sensual scents on the terrace with Mr Rochester and coy invitations to lurk in the shrubbery. We will complete our whirlwind tour of the sexual delights of the garden by exploring the lustful Language of Flowers, and depictions of lust and love in garden paintings and statuary. Can I tempt you into the garden Maud?
