The past is another country - but what does it mean to visit it? This hands-on, interactive workshop explores different kinds of historical fiction - from the most scrupulously authentic to the playful and parodic - exploring research, worldbuilding, language, voice and character. How do we build a fictional time-machine? How strange or familiar should the past seem? And what is the nature of historical 'truth'?
