Workshop Belgrade, 14-16 April 2011




The second meeting of the Working Groups of COST Action WWIH took place in Belgrade (14-16 April, after a COST MC meeting on April 13). It was organized by Biljana Dojcinovic, in collaboration with other members of the Serbian team of COST Action IS0901, and the Faculty of Philology of the Belgrade University.

The three days were work meetings for the Action members; yet external visitors were also invited, and were actually present.

During this workshop we continued the presentations and discussions of the first COST year, from which we have tried to draw some conclusions ("Milestone 1"); at the same time we prepared the November conference ("Milestone 2"). Just as the Turku workshop constituted a preliminary meeting preparing the Madrid conference, this Belgrade meeting relates to the Chawton conference of November as an (internal) brainstorming session to the presentation of results.

During our second COST year, preparing the 2nd "Milestone", we are focusing on “qualitative and comparative research”. Ideally selection of the texts discussed will have taken place on the basis of their quantitative importance. But the papers presented also discussed the works' "qualities", in particular their degree of “femininity”, “feminism”, “normality”, “transgression”, as perceived by contemporaries.

In relation to this, the links between writing, communicating, networking, embroidery and gender were also researched - on different levels. Knowing that women authors themselves have often been comparing between the (writing) pens and the (sewing or knitting) needles - the latter being judged much more corresponding to "femininity" than the former -, we also discussed and opposed during the workshop these and other (more or less "typically") women's activities. The more so because one of the famous literary works of Serbia is actually a text embroidered embroidered by a woman: Jefimija. For her, and other European women, we tried to understand the women’s degree of (non-)conformity to the doxa, and their willingness to participate in public debate.
