Taking “Eating Your Words” Literally

Listen in to a chat with Dr. Katherine Storm Hindley, Assistant Professor of English at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, about her recent book, Textual Magic Charms and Written Amulets in Medieval England (University of Chicago Press). Discover the magical power of charms in the medieval world, how to find and catalog them, and why modern tattoos might connect us to medieval charms.

Meeting in the Middle Ages is hosted by Will Beattie and Ben Pykare, both Ph.D. candidates at Notre Dame’s Medieval Institute. The podcast is sponsored by the Medieval Institute of the University of Notre Dame and supported by the Medieval Academy of America’s Graduate Student Committee through their Community Building Award.
