Hannah Ryggen; Recovery from eating disorders

Throughout the year we've been looking at the impact of eating disorders and what helps to overcome them. Hope Virgo and Jayne Nisbet are passionate about speaking out about their own recovery. They talk to Jane about how it is possible with the right help and support to move on with your life.

Hannah Ryggen was one of Scandinavia's most outstanding artistic figures of the 20th century. Her monumental tapestries reflect the politics of her time and in particular her opposition to the rise in fascism in the 1930s. Louise Adamson visits an exhibition of her work at Modern Art Oxford and hears from Norwegian art historian, Marit Paasche, and the exhibition's co-curator, Emma Ridgway.

"Anyone who pities herself for more than a month on end is a weak sister and likely to become a public nuisance" wrote Marjorie Hillis in her 1936 best seller Live Alone and Like It. Jane speaks to Donna Coonan, Editorial Director of Virago Modern Classics about the decision to re-issue the book and to journalist Lucy Scholes who is a Hillis fan.
