Centuries before Hollywood dressed it in a nun's habit, the demon Valak prowled the pages of forbidden grimoires as a winged boy astride a two-headed dragon, commanding legions of serpents to do his bidding.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources):https://weirddarkness.com/valekREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/24s8nzb9FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Although Valak is depicted in the films "The Nun" and in “The Conjuring 2” as a habit-wearing spirit, the real demon appears as a child riding a two-headed dragon — at least according to a 17th-century demon-hunting manual. (The Reality Behind The Demon, Valak) *** The Vatican is one of the most well-guarded areas in the world. But if rumors are to be believed, all that security isn't only to protect the pontiff… but some dark, disturbing secrets… and a machine that could change everything we know to be true. (The Vatican's Secret Machine) *** We'll look at that time a force field was accidentally created at a 3M plant. (3M's Accidental Force Field) *** In 1872 George Wheeler met and married May Tillson in Boston. He made a home for May and her younger sister Della, first in New York, then in California. Along the way, George fell in love with young Della and when she planned to marry someone else he was faced with a dilemma: he could not marry her himself and he could not bear to see her wed to another. The solution he chose pleased no one. (Thus She Passed Away) *** In the 1800s scientists and doctors needed cadavers to study human anatomy and practice their skills. To help accommodate the need, it was made legal to sell dead bodies. What could possibly go wrong?

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: December, 2021This episode of Weird Darkness moves from a centuries-old demon mistaken for a nun, through the Victorian trade in stolen corpses and a force field that appeared inside a 1980 factory, to a San Francisco trunk murder and a Catholic priest who claimed to have built a machine that could film the past.It opens with the demon Valak, who reaches modern audiences through The Nun and The Conjuring 2 as a pale, nun-robed figure but appears in the 17th-century grimoire Clavicula Salomonis Regis, or The Key of Solomon, as the 62nd spirit: a boy with angel's wings riding a two-headed dragon, commanding a legion of serpents and an army of thirty demons while hunting snakes and hidden treasure. The nun costume was the invention of director James Wan, who reshaped a vision the medium Lorraine Warren described to him — a swirling hooded figure carrying female energy — into a holy icon turned against her Catholic faith. Warren and her husband Ed, the demonologists who rose to fame after the 1976 Amityville investigation, reportedly met a spectral hooded figure at the Borley church in southern England, where lore held that a nun had been bricked alive in the convent walls after an affair with a monk. The Key of Solomon, which lists the seventy-two demons King Solomon was said to have vanquished, sat on the Vatican's Index librorum prohibitorum until the Church abandoned that list of prohibited books in 1966, though copies kept turning up in the hands of Catholic priests.From there the episode turns to the Anatomy Act of 1832, the British law that legalized dissecting unclaimed bodies from workhouses and hospitals to end the grave-robbing of the resurrectionists, yet instead built an organized corpse trade across Victorian England. The twelfth-century St. Bartholomew's left wicker baskets beneath its King Henry VIII gate for body dealers to fill, while a Liverpool Street express known as the "dead train" carried sealed funeral wagons of stacked corpses toward Cambridge. Deepening the trade, the New Poor Law of 1834 confined the destitute to workhouses whose officials profited from selling the dead, and in 1858 the master of St. Mary Newington workhouse, Alfred Feist, was caught funneling pauper bodies to Guy's Hospital through the undertaker Robert Hogg, who staged fake funerals and collected double payment. Anatomists prized the bodies of fetuses and children, keeping their skulls intact — only one of fifty-four specimens in a Cambridge collection had received a craniotomy — and the public's dread boiled over in Manchester in 1832, when a grandfather opened the coffin of a three-year-old who had died at the Swan Street Cholera Hospital and found a brick where the boy's head should have been.Next comes a stranger kind of dread, set in the summer of 1980 at a 3M plant in South Carolina, where workers slitting twenty-foot-wide polypropylene film at a thousand feet per minute walked into an invisible wall they could not push through. The static-charged field, which one worker measured past the limit of a 200-kilovolt handheld electrometer, pulled people toward it so strongly they had to back away on foot, swallowed a passing fly, and by one account could have held a bird in its grip before vanishing as abruptly as it formed. Managers reproduced the effect the next morning under lower humidity, and the plant production manager reportedly said he didn't know whether to fix it or sell tickets; later accounts claim a researcher who published on the phenomenon was contacted by NASA and federal agencies before the grounding fault was corrected and the field never returned.The episode then moves to a true-crime case in San Francisco, where around midnight on October 20, 1880, George A. Wheeler walked into a police station and confessed to strangling his sister-in-law Della Tillson and packing her body into a trunk in their room at 23 Kearney Street. Wheeler had fathered two children with Della, both of whom died, while her sister — his deaf wife, May — lived across the hall posing as his sister-in-law, and the arrival of the miner George Peckham, who hoped to marry Della and take her to Sacramento, drove Wheeler to kill rather than let the two leave together. He told reporters that Della sat in his lap and asked him to end her life, that she died with her head on his shoulder, and his defense of hereditary insanity failed across two trials, the second forced by a California Supreme Court ruling over improperly admitted testimony from a book on medical jurisprudence. On January 23, 1884, five thousand people gathered outside the jail, entrance tickets sold for ten dollars apiece, and Wheeler — newly drawn toward Catholic conversion under Father Cottle — kissed a crucifix, commended his spirit, and dropped to a broken neck.The episode closes inside the Vatican with Father Pellegrino Ernetti, an Italian priest, exorcist, and musical scholar who claimed in the 1950s to have helped build a device called the Chronovisor that could see and hear the past. Ernetti said a team of twelve anonymous scientists, among them the physicist Enrico Fermi and the rocket engineer Wernher von Braun, tuned the machine to a speech by Mussolini, then Napoleon, a Roman market under Emperor Trajan, a Cicero oration, and a 169 B.C. performance of Quintus Ennius's lost tragedy Thyestes, which he said let him publish its full text. When the magazine La Domenica del Corriere printed a Chronovisor image of Christ's face on the cross on May 2, 1972, it was soon matched to a mirrored photograph of a wood carving by the sculptor Cullot Valera, and Ernetti — who said the machine was too dangerous to exist and had been dismantled and hidden — left behind no device, no named living witnesses, and a 1993 presentation to four cardinals whose contents were never disclosed.

Individuation isn’t about becoming better. It’s about becoming whole. At 75, neurologist Oliver Sacks finally integrated the parts of himself he’d kept hidden—his sexuality, his need for love, his domestic life (who knew he kept a library of Jung's work). Bill Hayes talks intimately about Sacks’s late-life transformation which exemplifies Jung’s crucial insight: growth isn’t about fixing what’s broken. It’s about integrating what you’ve exiled. The recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship in nonfiction, Bill Hayes is a frequent contributor to the New York Times and the author of seven books, including Sleep Demons; Five Quarts; The Anatomist; Insomniac City; and How We Live Now: Scenes from the Pandemic. His writing has also appeared in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Review of Books, the New York Times “T” Style Magazine, BuzzFeed, and The Guardian. His most recent book, SWEAT: A History of Exercise, a narrative nonfiction look at exercise from antiquity to the present, is available now wherever books are sold. Hayes is also a photographer, with credits including The New Yorker, Vanity Fair, and the New York Times. His portraits of his partner, the late Oliver Sacks, appear in the volume of Dr. Sacks's suite of final essays Gratitude. A collection of his street photography, How New York Breaks Your Heart, was published in 2018 by Bloomsbury. His photographs are available for sale as limited edition prints exclusively by CLAMP art gallery in New York City. Books by Bill Hayes: Patricia Martin, MFA, is the host of Jung in the World.

CONTENT HEADS UP: This episode contains (among other things) a deep, frank conversation about life, death, Catholicism, the cosmos, reverential dissection, body phenomena, including orgasm, service, enlightenment, circumcision, some swear words, a lot of humor, and of course, some challenges and gifts of being bodies.And in case it's not clear, Gil dissects, with dedication, “donor forms” - no longer inhabited bodies gladly donated by their prior inhabitants - to illuminate the wonders of the human body so that we might all live ours more fully. SYNOPSIS: In this episode, Ali talks with Gil Hedley, educator and the producer of the Integral Anatomy series, who offers a expert perspective on the human body from the inside out. With a background in Theological Ethics and decades of dedication dissecting donated human bodies, Gil views the body as an archaeological site, exploring the layers of the human form and what they reflect about the near-infinite complexity of human existence. This episode delves into, as Gil calls it, a “re-branding of the human body” - giving us life-enhancing “re-conceptions” of the heart and body phenomena (fat, the foreskin, blood, orgasm) we have taken for granted and/or completely misunderstood. This conversation also explores the harmful effects of body fragmentation, and the interconnectedness of spirit and matter. Viewing the body through Gil's extraordinary professional, and personal, perspective gives us a window into our inner-universe and beyond to our cosmic identity. After listening, your experience of being a body will never be the same!

A whopper of an episode with an extraordinary guest, outgoing Emeritus Professor of Human Anatomy at the University of Cape Town Medical School, Dr Graham Louw. We discuss body donation and what it's like for students to apprehend their first cadaver, and take a trip under the skin, besides discussing a whole pile of other things that Graham has learnt over his long career - a career which has benefited many thousands of people.
Jamie Decker, who founded Experience Anatomy in 2016, visited Discovery Place Science in Charlotte to see Body Worlds created by Dr. Gunther von Hagens. Jamie had an interest in anatomy ahead of the trip, but having the opportunity to experience an extensive exhibition showcasing plastinated human cadavers and specimens stirred something within her she didn't know was there: passion. In college, Jamie studied Funeral Service and Mortuary Science. At a plastination conference in Toledo, she received a personal invitation from von Hagens to study under his direction at Gubener Plastinate GmbH. She spent the following three years commuting between Germany and the US to complete an intensive internship that developed and refined her self-efficacy as an anatomist and educator, and significantly extended her knowledge of plastination. To this day, Jamie has the distinction of being the only American who has extensively trained under von Hagens' at his plastination company. In 2015 Jamie reengaged with Discovery Place Science to serve as a scientist-in-residence during the six-month run of Body Worlds & The Cycle of Life. Within five months of the exhibition closing, in October 2016 Jamie established Experience Anatomy. Today, Experience Anatomy encompasses a fully-equipped training venue and mobile wet lab, deploys anatomy resources of unrivaled quality worldwide, and engages a team of expert Anatomists and Program Specialists. Serving numerous industries with courses of exceptional standard, Experience Anatomy has the power to revolutionize health and life science education.

Gabrielle Falloppia is credited with inventing the condom. He didn't, but he did discover the fallopian tubes, all while battling academic rivals, accusations of heresy, a syphilis epidemic, and the pirates who kidnapped his boyfriend. He has been accused of vivisecting the criminals given to him by the Medicis—that is, dissecting them while they were alive—but he didn't do that. To be clear, he *did* kill them…just not in that way. It's all in a day's work for legendary anatomist Gabrielle Falloppia. Our guest today is medical doctor and historian Dr Michael Stolberg, retired chair of the history of medicine at the University of Würzburg, Germany. Dr Stolberg's new book is Gabrielle Falloppia 1522/23-1562: The Life and Work of a Renaissance Anatomist, and it's out now from Routledge.

"Now, if you've never heard about fascial slings, or facial movement fascial lines, then this may be super new to you. So stick with me because you are going to understand your body and the body in movement in a way that is probably going to blow your mind." - Katie Crane This episode of the Pilates Lounge Podcast dives deep into the body's fascial lines and their impact on posture and movement. Anatomists have uncovered the matrix of fascia connecting muscles and tissues through layers of the human body. In this topic, I will provide a detailed overview of the superficial backline and frontline fascial slings, detailing the muscles, tendons, and ligaments from feet to head. By exploring how maintaining proper tension in these lines through exercises like Pilates supports upright posture and basic movements, you gain insights into total-body exercises that can alleviate tension or pain. This insightful show delves into applied anatomy and its relevance to movement practice.

An interview with Tauno Bilsted recorded in NYC in August 2023 that took place at the Umbrella House, a formally squatted building that is now a home for artists, community activists and workers in the East Village in Manhattan. In this interview we speak about "The Anatomist's Tale" published by Lanternfish Press, this is a write up: Glorious Marshalsea! The cells here—slick with algae and vomit, sweaty with the resigned terror of their occupants—have seen the end of many rogues and more than a few innocents. Born into abject poverty in the British Empire, our narrator aspires to a better life as a ship's surgeon—until a tyrannical captain provokes a mutiny, forcing him into a life of piracy and eventually to a tropical commune of maroons called New Madagascar. Told through a series of confessions to those who visit the narrator during his imprisonment at Marshalsea, The Anatomist's Tale relates one man's brush with the heady freedom of outlaws—and the price of returning to "civilization."

Was a teenager named Alessandra Giliani the western world’s first female anatomist? In 14th century Italy, women were strictly barred from medical research. One flouted that rule – disguised as a man.
Was a teenager named Alessandra Giliani the western world’s first female anatomist? In 14th century Italy, women were strictly barred from medical research. One flouted that rule – disguised as a man.
Welcome to the first in our From Our Inbox series, in which we give listeners a taste of the mail we get from folks wanting to bring a particular forgotten scientist to our attention. Here's the story of Alessandra Giliani, brought to us by Barbara Quick, an author and poet in the San Francisco Bay Area. There's a persistent myth in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy about Alessandra Giliani, a 14th-century girl who defied the laws of Church and state to attend medical school. The most concrete evidence of her existence comes in the form of illuminated manuscripts depicting an assistant to anatomist Mondino de Liuzzi who appears to be a cross-dressed woman. In this episode, associate producer Mackenzie Tatananni speaks with author Barbara Quick about Alessandra's discoveries, which were well ahead of their time.
A Fatal Illusion (Berkley Books, 2023)—the eleventh installment in Anna Lee Huber's Lady Darby Mysteries featuring Kiera and Sebastian Gage—opens in Yorkshire in 1832. The two of them have come a long way since their first acrimonious meeting two years earlier; in fact, they have married and produced an infant daughter. Yet Kiera, Lady Darby, is still known by her detested first husband's title—a courtesy extended by society that she would much rather forgo in favor of being plain Mrs. Gage. On this occasion, Gage has received word that his father has been attacked and left for dead on the Great North Road. Despite years of neglect and mistreatment, Gage rushes to his father's side, bringing his family with him. After discovering his father alive, if not well, Gage and Kiera set out to discover who attacked him and why, but they have to contend with both the victim's refusal to share all he knows and resistance from the locals, who are determined to protect a group of highwaymen (or is it a group of smugglers?) whom they believe to be the nineteenth-century equivalent of Robin Hood. As always in these mysteries, the setting comes vividly to life, the problems unknot themselves in satisfying but not always predictable ways, and the characters slowly move toward greater understanding of themselves and others. If you haven't encountered Kiera and Gage before, you should certainly seek out their adventures. But do yourself a favor and start with book 1, The Anatomist's Wife. Although you can tackle the books in any order, you will enjoy them more if you read them as I did, from start to finish. Anna Lee Huber is the USA Today bestselling and Daphne award-winning author of the Lady Darby Mysteries, the Verity Kent Mysteries, and the Gothic Myths series, as well as the anthology The Deadly Hours. A Fatal Illusion is her most recent novel. C. P. Lesley is the author of two historical fiction series set during the childhood of Ivan the Terrible and three other novels. Her latest book, Song of the Storyteller, appeared in January 2023. Learn more about your ad choices.

Galen was the greatest medical man in the ancient world. His fame rested upon his abilities as a healer, but also his unparalleled knowledge of the human body. This episode explores Galen's time in Rome where he demonstrated his impressive knowledge of anatomy which was unsurpassed in antiquity. We also investigate Galen's predeccessors Aristotle, Praxagoras, Herophilus and Erasistratus who between them invented the fields of anatomy and physiology.Email: thecompletehistoryofscience@gmail.com Contact: thecompletehistoryofscience@gmail.comTwitter: @complete_sciMusic Credit: Folk Round Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License
It was my great honor to talk with Suzanne Haber about the importance of anatomy in neurosurgery and neuromodulation as a whole. Among many other topics, we discussed her seminal work on the subthalamic nucleus, the anterior limb of the internal capsule and briefly present work on the zona incerta, also in synopsis with earlier work from Mahlon DeLong (#22) and Anne Young (#23). Crucially, Suzanne is not only an anatomist but one with a particular interest in deep brain stimulation. She leads a Conte center with the NIMH focused on Obsessive Compulsive Disorders and has carried out seminal work about the striatal system. One key area Suzanne has worked on lately was the comparison between noninvasive imaging (diffusion-MRI based tractography) and tract tracing data. Together with Anastasía Yendiki (Martinos Center Boston), she runs the "iron tract challenge", in which tractography methods folk competes to reconstruct tracts from diffusion data as best they can – which are then compared to the ground truth from tracing data. Together with Cameron McIntyre (#10), alongside three other anatomists, Suzanne recently created the basal ganglia pathway atlas which represents a unique dataset to study connectomic deep brain stimulation data.
This week on Physio Foundations I spoke to anatomy educator Associate Professor Michelle Lazarus. Michelle is the Director of the Centre for Human Anatomy Education at Monash University and a highly experienced anatomy educator and researcher. We had a really interesting discussion about the best ways for students and practitioners to learn anatomy, how to remember and retain anatomical knowledge and resources you can use to continue to build you foundations in anatomy. This was also the official launch of the Clinical Anatomy series on this podcast – stay tuned for future podcasts on applied and clinical anatomy that you can use in the clinic. This is a discussion aimed at health professionals and health professional students. Always seek the guidance of a qualified health professional with any questions you may have regarding your health or a medical condition.

Body snatching is the act of literally snatching a corpse-- yikes. In today's episode the THRE3 of us go way back in time to talk about it's history, and how it became a crime. Did you know there are modern day versions of filching corpses? Tune in to hear some dark stories.
In a very open and sovereign exchange on Super Woo radio, Tahnee sits in the guest seat and journeys deep into earthly, Daoist, yogic, and supernatural spaces with George Kavassilas. This episode is one of a kind, revealing the expanse of Tahnee's depth in all her nuanced layers; intellectual, spiritual, creative, vulnerable, masculine, and feminine (to name a few). Seated unwavering in the unified field of love, host of Super Woo radio, George Kavassilas, holds an impeccable space for this expansive conversation that explores the depths of our existence into other dimensions and beyond. Starting with a glimpse into her love story with her husband Mason, this episode weaves in and out of Tahnee's life journey, her value system, and the tenets of yogic and Daoist teachings that have informed her awareness along the way. Tahnee talks openly about the grief and bliss she has experienced in her life and discusses the importance of honesty, courage, self-responsibility, and sovereignty in any healthy relationship, business or personal. George and Tahnee discuss energy centres, chakra systems, other dimensions of space and time, and current events that call upon us to be clear on our value systems as we move towards an ominous technological future; that thrives on hive mind mentality. Tahnee's willingness to be equally real and vulnerable on all things discussed in this episode reminds us of the power our voices have when we operate from a place of integrity and speak from a place of authenticity. "But it's this idea of, complete self-mastery isn't, 'I can hold my breath for 15 minutes. Or, I can stop my heart'... Or whatever it is. Those are all interesting things to play with. But can you actually master yourself? Can you master the singularity? And can you actually be in control"? - Tahnee Taylor Tahnee and George discuss: -Pain. -Trust. -Projection. -Vulnerability. -Co-creation. -Relationships. -Value systems. -Natural yoga. -Plant medicine. -Shinto Buddhism. -Tantric Buddhism. -The chakra system. -Living authentically. -How to sit in discomfort. -Honesty in all relationships. -Tahnee's embodiments of Yoga. -Boundary setting in relationships. -Connection in an age of disconnect. Tahnee Taylor Tahnee is a self proclaimed nerd, with a love of the human body, its language and its stories. A cup of tonic tea and a human interaction with Tahnee is a gift! A beautiful Yin Yoga teacher and Chi Ne Tsang practitioner, Tahnee loves going head first into the realms of tradition, yogic philosophy, the organ systems, herbalism and hard-hitting research. Tahnee is the business brains behind SuperFeast, wife to Mason, and devoted mama to Aiya and baby Leo, the newest addition to the Taylor family. George Kavassilas George Kavassilas is an author, mentor, and public speaker. George has had a lifetime of experiences beyond the ordinary, encountering a wide spectrum of expressions of life both Inter-Dimensional and Extra-Terrestrial in nature. As a consequence, he went through a process of reconciling the knowledge and wisdom gained from these experiences and came to realise a natural responsibility to share what he has learned with our global community. George now embodies a limitless passion in addressing life's primordial questions: “Who are we? Where do we come from? and What are we doing here?” George knows his life path includes a focus to expose all levels of deception, no matter how far they go. He carries a deep-seated sense of responsibility to help liberate our Humanity from all forms of imposing doctrine and dogma, without exception - be they Earthly or even Cosmic in nature.

In the early 19th century, Edinburgh was the leading European center for anatomy. Dissections were so popular, that the city began running out of cadavers. By Scottish law, the only bodies that could be used were those who died in jail, suicide victims, and orphans. People began stealing bodies from graves, which wasn't illegal. Anatomists would pay handsomely for bodies. As measures to stop grave robbing heightened, two men took matters into their own hands. William Burke and William Hare began a killing spree in exchange for money from anatomist Robert Knox. In November 1828, both men and their wives were caught after suspicion had arose. Hare was granted immunity as long as he testified against Burke. Hare's wife was also granted the same. Hare admitted to killing sixteen people along with Burke and went into great detail of the methods. Burke was found guilty and sentenced to death. His wife was found no proven, which meant she was guilty but there wasn't enough evidence to convict. Burke was hanged in February 1829. His body was dissected and his skeleton was preserved. To this day, it is on display at the Anatomical Museum of the Edinburgh Medical School.

An understanding of human anatomy makes possible modern medicine, surgery and even representational art. But the knowledge is hard-fought: the story of the early anatomists is a story of grave robbing, murder, heresy and heroism. This talk will introduce some of the individuals who have advanced our understanding of human anatomy, and relate the struggles and triumphs they faced along the way. Recorded live as part of The Objectivist Conference on August 28, 2021.
Julie M. Stamm, Ph.D. received her Bachelor of Science degree in Athletic Training from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2009. As part the research team at the Boston University Center for the Study of Traumatic Encephalopathy (BU CSTE). Stamm has been involved in ground-breaking research with Dr. Robert Stern on chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a progressive neurodegenerative disease of the brain found in athletes (and others) with a history of repetitive brain trauma. She was the first to publish research on the long-term consequences of repetitive brain trauma in youth sports. This research has been covered in the media worldwide and has influenced youth sports organizations to make rule changes in youth sports to limit head impacts. Outside of school and research, Julie enjoys running, volleyball, many outdoor activities, and traveling. She is also an avid fan of Wisconsin Badger sports. Today we will explore her latest book The Brain on Youth Sports: The Science, the Myths, and the Future 02:39 Introducing Julie M Stamm PhD. She talks about her background in sport and how she got involved in brain trauma. 08:47 Setting the scene for the conversation 13:55 What is a brain injury and what is the misconception of it? What are some of the symptoms we may not be familiar with? 17:05 Julie talks about the sports which are more prone for head injuries, and she explain critical brain development in the younger years. 26:30 Building a story around learning a new skill, motor learning and the impact of a brain injury. Re-creation of brain structures. 35:39 Unpacking rewiring of neuron in a teen brain. 38:37 Sporting governing bodies-those who are changing are thriving 42:37 Julie provides some suggestion on how to deal with recovery and explain the difference between boys and girls. 50:50 We discuss how she experience the culture around brain injuries in youth sport. 55:30 Does helmets protect brain injuries. 58:39 Playing like adults does not make a young person better. 60:15 Julie's version of “Sound of music” of youth sport. 64:05 What about food, how can this impact on our brain? 67:40 In closing let's not give up and think we need to change youth sport to be boring because we need to protect their brains. A paradigm shift is needed just like Asbestos and smoking, we are now more aware about brain trauma and its impact. Sport can remain. Show notes and links www.yellowforyelling.com

The second part in our mini-series on cadavers.So, how did Burke and Hare change the state of the game when it came to dissection? And what happened after that?Well quite a lot really, but keep in mind that a lot of what we know today wouldn't have happened without those two gentlemen, and those similarly inclined. Still, the real heroes of the piece are those who were just… laying around at the time.

Anna Lee Huber‘s dark Gothic-themed Lady Darby mysteries have attracted a strong following and won awards, but she's not one to rest on her laurels. HI there I'm your host Jenny Wheeler, and today Anna talks about her new mystery hero, World War I spy Verity Kent; she explains why she's also started Gothic Mist, a new romantic suspense series, and tells of the one thing, that more than any other, is the secret to her success. Six things you'll learn from this Joys of Binge Reading episode: Why she's attracted to Gothic mysteries Unveiling the 'unknown' story of woman spies in WWI Movie soundtracks - her 'secret sauce' for writing Why 'breathe and let be' is an important author skill How she discovered her natural fit for historical fiction The writers she admires most Where to find Anna Lee Huber: Website: http://www.annaleehuber.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AuthorAnnaLeeHuber Twitter: https://twitter.com/AnnaLeeHuber Instagram: https://twitter.com/AnnaLeeHuber What follows is a "near as" transcript of our conversation, not word for word but pretty close to it, with links to important mentions. And now here's Anna. Hello there Anna and welcome to the show, it's great to have you with us. Jenny: From what I read on your website you've always loved to write. But what got you started on historical mysteries? Was that the first fiction you tried your hand at when you decided you wanted to be a writer? Anna Lee Huber - author Anna: Well actually, I started out writing straight historicals. I've always been fascinated with history, and so when I was an adult and went back to writing after some years, I realized it was definitely going to have to be an historical setting. My first attempt at a book though, I kept having romance and all these other things sneak in and it ended up not being a very good book, because I didn't structure it correctly. Then I tried to write historical romance, but the mystery kept on overtaking the plot. So I realized, OK let's switch this. Let's try writing historical mystery, and having romance as the sub plot. That's what I realized was the perfect fit for me; it's actually what I enjoyed reading the most, though I should have probably clued into that earlier! I also enjoy historical romance. Jenny: That's great. Also just winding back a bit - why did you go straight to the historical? Anna: I just like history so much. When I write, I feel like my voice is more of a historical fit. I'd love to try my hand at writing a contemporary, but I don't know. It just seems so natural to me. It interests me the most and most of my plot ideas would work better historically than contemporaries so I guess that's the reason. Jenny: It's your natural fit. Anna: Yes, it is. Jenny: Your award-winning Lady Darby series is rather dark – would you almost call them Gothic – and set in 1830's Scotland. What led you to that period and setting? The Anatomist's Wife Anna: Well I came up with the idea for Kiera the character first. I realized that I wanted to write an historical mystery with a female protagonist. But I wanted to give her some kind of skill she could bring to the investigations, and I wanted her to be kind of awkward socially- not being the natural social butterfly. So how could she investigate these crimes, and what could she bring to it? That's when I stumbled across the idea of giving her knowledge of anatomy, which she gains by force from her first husband. Then I started looking into history, and the 19th century has always been a big draw for me. And I realized that Burke and Hare are arrested in 1829 and so that was kind of the perfect setting, because of that scare about the body snatchers and everything that was coming out about what the anatomists were doing in order to teach their pupils and advance science in the medical industry. Also the Anatomy Act was coming up in 1832,
Anita Guerrini‘s wonderful new book explores Paris as a site of anatomy, dissection, and science during the reign of Louis XIV between 1643-1715. The journey begins with readers accompanying a dead body to sites of dissection across the city, after which we are introduced to four anatomists – charter members of the Paris Academy of Sciences – who will act as focal points for the rest of the story.The Courtiers' Anatomists: Animals and Humans in Louis XIV's Paris (University of Chicago Press, 2015) opens up Parisian bodies – human and animal, dead and alive – to argue that dissection played a major role in the development of experimental methods in seventeenth century science. In Guerrini's hands, the history of science and medicine in early modern Paris was simultaneously a history of fairy tales and opera, dogs and chameleons, artists and knife-makers, labyrinth-making and oratory. It is a fascinating book that is a must-read for historians of anatomy and of early modern science and medicine, and will be accessible and gripping for readers well beyond those fields.
