Marina Warner on language

In Times of Love and Hate is a new podcast series from Birkbeck Voices. In our first episode, Professor Marina Warner talks about the importance of language, and particularly language woven into stories, which can shape our shared understanding and deepen our abilities to negotiate with one another as we navigate through times of love and hate. The episodes in this series are brought to you by academics from Birkbeck’s MA Public Histories, MSc War and Humanitarianism, BA Human Geography, BA Archaeology and Geography, and BA Intercultural Communication and Language. They will explore with you how the turbulent times we live in can be better understood, lived and survived using the tools of investigation and critical enquiry that students and academics alike employ through study and research at Birkbeck.
