About Tara Isabella Burton
Welcome to The Lost Word, where I’ll be writing weekly on the relationship between God, art, language, magic, and enchantment.
Upcoming essays include a meditation on the English of the Book of Common Prayer, a history of occultist Hollywood and Ken Anger’s Satanic “spellcraft” of filmmaking, an examination of the idea of “energy” as a magical force from Renaissance magic to present-day wellness culture, and reflections on why I am bad at (but enjoy) blues dancing.
