Betwixt The Sheets: The History of Sex, Scandal & Society

Human Emotion

Happiness, sadness, anger, surprise, disgust, fear... we all know what these emotions feel like, right?


But what is emotion? Do we all feel the same things? And do we have the same feelings as people who lived five-hundred years ago?


Today Kate is joined Betwixt the Sheets by Richard Firth-Godbehere to find out about the origins of emotions, and what they have to do with witchcraft and desire.


You can find out more about Richard's work here.


Senior producer: Charlotte Long. Producer: Sophie Gee. Mixed by Siobhan Dale.
