Current revision


Chawton, May 2008




READERS, WRITERS, SALONNIÈRES:
FEMALE NETWORKS IN EUROPE, 1700-1900

An interdisciplinary two-day conference was held at Chawton House Library, Hampshire, on May 22-23, 2008. The event was jointly organised by the University of Southampton English Department, the University of Warwick French Department and the University of Wales Swansea German Section. The conference was the second in the series being held in the context of the NWO Project “New approaches to European Women’s Writing” which is based at the University of Utrecht.

This conference sought to examine the trans-national links between literary women in Europe in the period 1700-1900, considering that the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries saw an explosion of interest in Europe in foreign languages and literatures, and that recent research is beginning to explore the part played by women in cross-cultural interchange.

The day before the conference a NEWW meeting was held at Chawton.

Organising committee: Gillian Dow (Southampton), Katherine Astbury (Warwick) and Hilary Brown (Swansea).
