Tim Rayborn presents an eerie look into the enduring legend of werewolves, a belief which evoked fear from the Balkans to Ireland. He will perform ancient, medieval, and Renaissance tales of shape-shifters, from the Lai of Bisclaveret by Marie de France (late 12th c.) to the Scandinavian Volsunga Saga. He will recount legends of the Balkan varcolac, the French loup-garou, Dionysian Maenads, and Ovidian shape-shifters.
