Information - The Wickedness of Words Talk
From witch trials to fantasy gaming, the evolution of spells and physical descriptions of magic folk have captured imaginations across generations. Join socio-phonologist Dr Jenny Amos for a journey through time and explore how perceptions of hags, witches and sorcerers are reflected in fictional and non-fictional language use.
