Dementia in the Minds of Characters and Readers

Dementia in the Minds of Characters and Readers
The Dementia in the Minds of Characters and Readers project investigates how the language of contemporary fiction represents the minds of characters with dementia.

Running throughout the project is a series of outreach and impact activities, such as the recent Dementia Fiction Festival. Videos of many of our events and presentations are available on the project's YouTube channel.


Gemma Carney will give the presentation Perspectives on Dementia: Insights from a Study of Characters and Readers in Dementia Fiction at the Language, Ideology and Power Research group at Lancaster University at 12 noon on 25 November. The event will be held on MS Teams - click here to here for the link to join the event.
