    It is ironic to see the hostility among some observers to Prof Hutton regarding his interpretation of historical evidence. From what I have read, he is personally sympathetic to paganism. But his task is not to evangelise for the tradition but to explore a historical question. Such an approach should be judged according to evidence not personal preferences. He gives an interpretation of evidence and should be judged by the standard of his research and not by what we might like or dislike.

    I could listen to Prof.Hutton endlessly. What a treasure! Even his asides are crammed with knowledge you just won’t find anywhere else.

    Have you ever noticed how, if someone else were speaking so slowly, it would be either frustratingly annoying, or soporifically boring, but Prof Hutton's inflections make it draw you in to a deeper interest and understanding, as we have longer to understand the information and take it in. It is a marvellous skill.

    This talk was so enjoyable! I adore Prof. Hutton’s work and I love his style. <br>Sincerest thanks for sharing it with us here. This midwestern millennial has the opportunity to benefit from talks I wouldn’t normally have access to simply because cool people share them online! It’s one of the few benefits I have noted as a person of a certain age… haha
