Professor Philip Terry (University of Essex) will talk about his discovery and translation of Jean-Luc Champerret’s ‘decoding’ of the Lascaux cave paintings as poetry. Terry and Champerret make the case for Ice-Age poetry: ‘oddly out of time, neither quite modern nor entirely ancient, yet inextricably entwining both epochs.’ (Simon Coppock, Minerva)
