In this episode we meet the witches, enchantresses and all round magical women of Greek Mythology. Unpacking Hekate, Circe, Medea, the Sirens and the Bacchae, we explore why these powerful women were ostracised and condemned for using their natural gifts to protect themselves. Includes an extract from my Ariadne and Dionysus audio drama Wild and poetry by Claire Tedstone. Content warning: references to child murder.
