COST Action IS0901 “Women Writers In History”
Second Training School 9-13 May 2011



The second Training School of the Action took place, again, in Huygens ING, The Hague.

Objective of this Training School was that in the near future:

  • participants will be able to use the WomenWriters database for their own research questions,
  • they might also have the capacity of explaining to assistants or students how to work in the database,
  • they can formulate their needs for features to be added to the database or to the Virtual Research Environment to be developed.

Twelve Action members (see names below) came together in order to familiarize themselves with the Action’s online database WomenWriters. Trainers Suzan van Dijk and Astrid Kulsdom helped them testing it for their own research material and research questions, and two members of the IT-department of Huygens ING, GertJan Filarski and Joris van Zundert, presented the planned evolution of the current database into a more advanced Virtual Research Environment.

These days provided a perfect occasion for adding 300 new reception data for countries up to now little represented to the current 20.000 records concerning the reception of women’s writing in Europe. While working together the database and its use were permanently under discussion, obliging participants (trainees and trainers) to adapt or change decisions taken previously.

The Training School was also an occasion to meet possible “new” Action members: a Lithuanian colleague, currently working in Leiden, joined the group, and started adding information about Lithuanian women authors.


Global programme

Trainees worked individually on their own research material, but each day there were also some short presentations: not only (by the trainers) of the database (structure and content), but also by the trainees, who presented to each other their research and the ways in which they want to use the database.
