A Joyous exploration of music, guests and poetry: Dr Janina Ramirez

Cerys handpicks your Sunday soundtrack and chats to historian Dr Janina Ramirez about her new publication Femina.

Cerys curates you an eclectic Sunday selection from her record collection, bringing you a blend of genres, eras and continents.

This week Cerys is joined by historian and writer Dr Janina Ramirez to discuss her latest book Femina: A New History of the Middle Ages, Through the Women Written Out of It. Whilst researching the book, Dr Ramirez went beyond the official records to uncover the impact of women like Jadwiga, the only female King in Europe, Margery Kempe, who exploited her image and story to ensure her notoriety, and the Loftus Princess, whose existence gives us clues about the beginnings of Christianity in England.
