Marie-Elsa Bragg on Christmas

Novelist and priest Marie-Elsa Bragg re-examines Christmas through the image of Mary at Hay Festival Winter Weekend 2017, part of our 30 Reformations series. A powerful influence for over 2000 years which continues to affect our views of women, the feminine and spirituality today. In light of liberation theology, feminism and interfaith relations, Marie-Elsa proposes a new debate about Mary and the sacred for issues we face today.

Our 30th anniversary coincided with the 500th anniversary of Martin Luther nailing his Theses to the door at Wittenberg. So we invited international thinkers at our festivals around the world to propose their reformations of institutions and authorities, re-imagining the world.

You can watch the full hour-long event, including the Q&A, over on our Hay Player now: https://www.hayfestival.com/hayplayer/

We'll be releasing other reformations daily from now to the end of the year - subscribe and be the first to see them.
