The Wurzels Christmas Party + support from Corky
2025-12-08 19:00 - 21:00 | Komedia Bath, 22-23 Westgate St, Bath, BA1 1EP, United Kingdom
The Wurzels, also known as the “West Country’s finest”, are a legendary British band that have been entertaining audiences with their unique blend of rural folk, rock, and comedy for over five decades.

Hailing from Somerset, England, this talented group has become synonymous with good old-fashioned fun and infectious foot-stomping music.

This year they are joining us on a Seasonal Sunday again and they are encouraging you all to visit the Bath Christmas Market before you get to their Xmas Party at Komedia!

Formed in 1966, The Wurzels were initially known as “Adge Cutler and the Wurzels”, led by charismatic frontman Adge Cutler. Their music, often referred to as “scrumpy and western”, is deeply rooted in the West Country culture and traditions, celebrating the joys and quirks of rural life. With their distinctive blend of accordion, banjo, drums, and guitar, The Wurzels have created a sound that is instantly recognizable and impossible to resist. And this time they`re starting early on a Sunday evening so plenty of time to visit the Christmas Market and still get home in good time!

This band has paved the way over decades for Scrumpy n’ Western – a genre packed full of double entendre, mainstream parody, and a comical folk style. The perfect accompaniment to cider-drinking. Signed to label heavyweights Columbia and EMI, The Wurzels are world-famous and continue to play over 100 sell-out shows and festivals every year and Bath Komedia is always on their list. Their quintessentially West Country cover of Kaiser Chiefs’ ‘Ruby’ has been a massive show favourite of late, as well as their hip hop version of the ubiquitous hit ‘Combine Harvester’. National and West Country Icons travel to see these West Country heroes so you never know who might turn up on the night!

A C Grayling - Making peace in the culture wars
2025-12-08 19:30 - 21:00 | BRLSI, 16-18 Queen Square, Bath, Bath & North East Somerset, BA1 2HN, United Kingdom
A C Grayling’s book Discrimination: Making Peace in the Culture Wars takes the so-called “woke” side – but argues that the “woke” case is not best made by visiting the same oppressions on opponents as the latter have historically visited on minorities, women and people of alternative views and ways.

The key to the case is that culture conflict arises not between competing rights, but between interests and rights, that genuine and fully enacted respect for rights is the way to end discrimination of all kinds, and that the resulting situation would in the ideal be one of convivencia.

Professor A C Grayling, CBE, MA, DPhil (Oxford), FRSL, FRSA, Master of the New College of the Humanities and a Supernumerary Fellow of St Anne’s College, Oxford

From Hand to Screen to Cloud: What is your Postdigital Positionality?
2025-12-09 18:30 - 20:30 | BRLSI, 16-18 Queen Square, Bath, Bath & North East Somerset, BA1 2HN, United Kingdom
Sarah Hayes’s book: Postdigital Positionality (2021) depicted the Internet as a ‘virtual airing cupboard’, where our hybrid human activities blur into ‘the cloud’ and fragment into biodigital data. Now that Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) is redistributing our fragmented selves, skills and language, this raises pressing new questions of ethics, ownership, disadvantage, creativity and environmental damage. In this lecture, Sarah discusses how others have taken forward her concept of ‘postdigital positionality’, using different media to critically capture personal narratives from local and global communities. This talk invites those present to explore their own personal stance on the postdigital reality that we all now occupy.

Sarah Hayes is Professor of Education and Research Lead in the School of Education, at Bath Spa University. Sarah’s research examines society through a postdigital lens. Her books include: The Labour of Words in Higher Education (2019), Bioinformational Philosophy and Postdigital Knowledge Ecologies (2022) and Human Data Interaction, Disadvantage and Skills in the Community (2023). Sarah is an Associate Editor for Postdigital Science and Education journal.

Italy in the Global Renaissance
2025-12-10 19:30 - 21:00 | BRLSI, 16-18 Queen Square, Bath, Bath & North East Somerset, BA1 2HN, United Kingdom
But where did it all begin, and how did the Italian Renaissance relate to the broader global picture? As part of the Renaissance: Journeys of Discovery series BRLSI are delighted to be joined by Professor Virginia Cox, author of the forthcoming Cambridge University Press book The Italian Renaissance: A Cultural History”.

Her talk offers a fresh vision of an iconic moment in cultural history, and explores key artistic, literary, and intellectual developments, while investigating the Renaissance beyond Florence. This talk visits a wide range of communities around the world: from minority-ethnic and minority-religious communities in Renaissance Italy, to the Jesuit missions in India, Japan & China and the diffusion of Renaissance culture (in its Iberian and Italian variants) in the Americas and in Asia.

In doing so Professor Cox delivers an incisive overview of Italy’s relationship with the European and non-European worlds, the ethnic and religious diversity within Italy and the global dissemination and hybridisation of Italian Renaissance culture.

Virginia Cox, Honorary Professor of Early Modern Italian Literature & Culture, Senior Research Fellow, Trinity College. Virginia graduated with a PhD from Cambridge and worked at the University of Edinburgh, UCL, University of Cambridge and New York University, before returning to Cambridge as Senior Research Fellow at Trinity College in 2021.
