Episode 6: Ghosts

Time: 26:25
This final episode explores Nashe's interest in ghosts: beings stuck between this world and the next. What is it about living in precarious times which lends itself to this gothic mode of writing? In answering this question, we will hear about Nashe’s work ‘The Terrors of the Night’ and the Elizabethan enthusiasm for predicting the future. Featured guests: Liz Oakley-Brown and Rachel White.

Description

Britain today is an increasingly precarious place. Many of us aren’t used to precarity - a condition of uncertainty and exposure as emotional as it is economic. But to the average Elizabethan it was the norm. These podcasts use the works of Thomas Nashe and his contemporaries to explore what precarity meant then, and what it means now. Funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Coucil.
