In other fields, the term has been applied to the decay of crop plants by fungi. The final stage is a fruiting body which pumps new spores out into the surrounding air. As the hyphae grow they will eventually form a large mass known as mycelium. If the spores are subjected to sufficient moisture, they will germinate and begin to grow fine white strands known as hyphae. Dry rot begins as a microscopic spore which, in high enough concentrations, can resemble a fine orange dust. ![]() The life-cycle of dry rot can be broken down into four main stages. It was previously used to describe any decay of cured wood in ships and buildings by a fungus which resulted in a darkly colored deteriorated and cracked condition. Dry rot is wood decay caused by one of several species of fungi that digest parts of the wood which give the wood strength and stiffness. ![]() ![]() I heard a sound of celebration, a clap, and he said something I couldn’t quite make out.

I do not, of course, mean that magic really works but people really believed it worked and really believed they were capable of doing it – which, in cultural terms, makes magic about as real as something can get. Magic as fiction is an important component of our culture but magic is also a real historical phenomenon that is part of our culture as well. I suspect this is a large part of the appeal of the Harry Potter books to many people, because Rowling mixes just enough historical information about magic to sustain the interest of the intellectually curious reader, making her magical world much more compelling than the often lazily conceptualised fictional magic of ‘sword and sorcery’ high fantasy. Having said that, it is impossible not to admire the internal consistency of Rowling’s fictional world of magic and the immense depth of knowledge that went into creating it. I am not a Harry Potter fan, and this exhibition particularly interested me because I am a historian of magic rather than because I enjoy the work of J. ![]() Today I visited the British Library’s major exhibition Harry Potter: A History of Magic. ![]() ![]() “A thing for Western readers to realize about India is, guess what?

Her new novel, “ Honor,” turns on India’s two major faiths, Hinduism and Islam, and the violence that can erupt when an extremist faction holds sway. ![]() Thrity Umrigar wants to talk about megachurches, which seems both apropos and slightly incongruous.
