‘A short essay on the mythological links between ancient Egypt and the British Isles.’

Inspired by James Joyce, the title of this essay speaks to the idea of folk memory and water memory, where ‘Riverrun’ - the course a river takes to shape the land, and ‘rêverons’ - the french word for ‘we will dream’, resurrect the historical and ecological imagination.

The essay itself explores some of the myths and folklore of Ireland, Scotland and Northern England in an attempt to determine how the symbol of the serpent arrived there and what its pagan significance could mean.
