Lalage had, by common consent, a memorable ‘presence’ as a public speaker, and this rare talent is discussed and some examples given. The chapter concludes with some personal reminiscences, which try to give a flavour of her unforgettable character; and some suggestions about some (realistic) policy priorities which Lalage might be campaigning for in the 2020s. 2024-04-02T15:49:18Z 2024-04-02T15:49:18Z 2023 chapter ONIX_20240402_9791221502534_164 2704-5781 9791221502534 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/89195 eng Studies on Adult Learning and Education application/pdf n/a 9791221502534_28.pdf https://books.fupress.com/doi/capitoli/979-12-215-0253-4_28 Firenze University Press 10.36253/979-12-215-0253-4.28 10.36253/979-12-215-0253-4.28 bf65d21a-78e5-4ba2-983a-dbfa90962870 9791221502534 17 10 Florence open access
