Signatures and Footprints by William Dart

William Dart will give the second Lilburn Lecture in the Adam Concert Room, New Zealand School of Music this Sunday. Entitled Signatures and Footprints, William will be talking about the complexity of securing identity and individuality today.

William will draw on historian E.H. McCormick’s essay from 1960 — Distance Looks Our Way: The Effects of Remoteness on New Zealanders — and how, even in our time of instant global communication, his words still have resonance today.

Named in honour of New Zealand composer Douglas Lilburn, the Lilburn Lecture is an annual event organised jointly by the Lilburn Trust and the Alexander Turnbull Library.

Entry is free.
