About the Event
Fire Festivals - Fire retains its power, even in our world of light and technology. This talk looks at contemporary fire festivals in Scotland – Stonehaven Fireballs, the Burning of the Clavie, Up-Helly-Aa, and Edinburgh’s Beltane – offering compelling imagery and an exploration of their history, meaning, function, and relevance in today’s artificially lit world.
Presented By: Dr. Thomas McKean, University of Aberdeen, The Elphinstone Institute.
