We are delighted to announce that Affective Artefacts is back for another year of fantastic interdisciplinary research. As well as a resheduled event from last year’s programme on early modern witch bottles, this year we are celebrating the path-breaking research of colleagues at Manchester – exploring eveything from fat bodies, fear and happiness, to early modern masculinities and the meaning of concealed objects. All events are free to attend and there is no need to sign up. We look forward to seeing you all for our first event on 16 October!
