Milton Lecture

Mansfield College (University of Oxford) presents its annual Milton Lecture, open to the public, on 11 June 2021 from 17:30 - 18:30 BST.

This year's Milton Lecture will focus on 'Museums as "the true teachers of a free people"' with Dr Tristram Hunt, Director of the V&A Museum.

In this lecture, Dr Hunt will discuss the role of public museums in creating our culture and describe how, despite its origins rooted in Empire, monarchy, and high Victorian capitalism, the collections of the Victoria & Albert Museum tell a fascinating story of civic republicanism.
