Our Project also takes part in the collaborative research in the framework of the COST Action entitled “Women Writers In History – Toward a New Understanding of European Literary Culture” (IS0901). In our project in which we seek to explore the history of women’s literature in Turkey in an interval spanning from 16th-century Ottoman Empire to 21st-century contemporary Turkey, we aim to establish a trilingual (Turkish, English and French) electronic database that will make biographical and bibliographical information about women writers in Turkey visible and increase both the research potential on their work and also the number of citations that previous critical research gets. <br><br>+[[Image:MG_1561.JPG]]<br><br>

About this Workshop

Since last year Turkish colleagues Çimen Günay-Erkol and Senem Timuroglu have joined our COST-WWIH Action. They represent a research project entitled "Turkish Women Writers", and were for that reason eager to join "Women Writers In History". During the Bucharest Workshop Senem Timuroglu was present. She then announced this final symposium of the "Turkish Women Writers" project, in which it would be interesting to make explicitly the connection with COST-WWIH. Colleagues present were all in favour.

The Transnational Perspectives on 19th and 20th century Women’s Writing workshop took place within the scope of the project “Women’s Writers in Turkey” supported by TÜB?TAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (109K517). In this project participants explored the history of women’s literature in Turkey in an interval spanning from 16th-century Ottoman Empire to 21st-century contemporary Turkey, aiming to establish a trilingual (Turkish, English and French) electronic database that makes biographical and bibliographical information about women writers in Turkey visible and increases both the research potential on their work and the number of citations that previous critical research gets. The project also took place in the collaborative research carried out in the framework of the COST Action entitled “Women Writers In History – Toward a New Understanding of European Literary Culture” (IS0901).


The 19th and 20th centuries witnessed an acceleration in the interaction of international women’s movement and women’s writing. This transnational movement which spread out across-borders, opened a door to the disintegration of colonial and orientalist discourse, which contained homogenous and monolithic fictions with strong influence on gender order, and also on solid constructions such as nation, ethnicity, and class.

This international workshop aimed to enliven the dialogue between texts published by women writers of different origins. The comparative look at women’s writing was animated with help of the theory of transnationalism which favors historical and experience-based relations over nationalist, ethnic, and cultural divisions.
