Episode description as stored
<p>Accessing stories from the past can be difficult, but how do we access <em>smells</em> from the past?</p>
<p>In today's episode, Kate is joined by Eleanor Jackson, curator of a new British Library exhibition, <a href="https://medievalwomen.seetickets.com/timeslots/filter/medieval-women-in-their-own-words" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Mediaeval Women In Their Own Words</em></a>, which features original texts about, and by, women from this period.</p>
<p>Whether that's Joan of Arc's signature or a welsh poet who wrote “Lovely bush you are blessed by God above” in her 'Poem to the Vagina'.</p>
<p>Kate's also joined by <a href="https://www.avmcuriosities.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tasha Marks</a>, an artist who creates sensory experiences, who has brought to life smells such as medieval hair perfumes to life as part of the exhibition.</p>
<p>This episode was edited by Matt Peaty and produced by Stuart Beckwith. The senior producer was Charlotte Long.</p>
<p>All music from Epidemic Sounds/All3 Media.</p>
