Cultural Encounters through Reading and Writing, Day 1: New Approaches to the History of Literary Culture

Women writers and esotericism in the Nordic countries during the fin-de siècle, networks of French and Italian women writers at the beginning of the nineteenth century, eighteenth-century British fiction by women and its readership in Spain…

This three day conference will uncover the many astonishing ways in which women writers participated in the literary culture of their time across the whole of Europe. Join the discussions about how we can rewrite literary history so that it reflects and celebrates this amazing heritage. Find out more about the project at this website.
