Closure


Organizing this Workshop in Bucharest allows to focus on the ways in which women – as authors – have contributed to establishing contacts between the Western and the Eastern part of Europe: between, for instance, Norway and Finland, Ireland and Russia, Spain and Poland; but also between Budapest and Paris (cf. Emilia Kanya), Bucharest and Domburg NL (cf. Carmen Sylva), Istanbul and London (cf. Lady Mary Wortley Montagu), again: taking these names just as examples..

Which influences were at play here? Increasing travelling possibilities? Need for money? Increasing education? Feminism? Political developments? Growing curiosity? In view of the third Milestone of our COST Action we will continue reflecting on what kind of factors were at stake when women put themselves to writing, publishing and entering into contact with readers. Some of them, and how to enter them in the records, have been discussed during the second COST year. We will find more of them….

On the technological level Visualizing is at stake now: what kinds of "maps, trees, graphs" (cf. Moretti) do we want the programme to generate for us, in view of our really progressing and approaching the questions on a larger scale?

  • Maps – showing influences (what kind?) going from West to East and vice versa?
  • Graphs – making visible proportions and percentages?
  • Trees – illustrating influences exerted by a work, an author, a group of authors? (cf. the present, still primitive, visualizing possibility).

This Workshop is preparatory to the November meeting, and will help explaining to developers what we need. Discussion will be about authors for whom works and receptions will have been entered into the WomenWriters database.
