Micheline White
Professor, Department of English Language and Literature at 杏吧原创 University
Email: micheline.white@carleton.ca
White is available to discuss the religious dimension of the coronation. She is specifically intrigued by the 鈥渁nointing,鈥 an ancient and somewhat mystical element that is often hidden from viewers. During this ceremony, the oil used is often personalized.
King Charles III has personalized the oil insisting that it contains no animal products and includes oil from olives from the Mount of Olives.
White can also talk about the importance of the prayers used during the service and in parishes before and after the coronation. These prayers articulate a vision of an ideal monarch, an ideal royal family and ideal subjects. They have changed over time and are now being used to project an image of a traditional yet progressive modern king and queen. The service has also changed to reflect a more secular, multicultural society.
White can discuss the role and influence of the queen consort 鈥 historically and in modern times.
