Dear All,

My colleague is researching the motif of crooked things in folk magic,
particularly in charms and witchcraft practices, whether the crooked motif
is employed in verbal spell-casting or in physical objects used in
charming. He has been analysing the Romanian context, but is interested in
parallels elsewhere in Europe, or indeed around the world, in terms of folk
practices. I would appreciate any information on this motif if anyone has
come across it in their research.

With kind regards,

Jenny
