Women's reading and writing:
readership and participation in the literary field
This part of the site will in the near future present women authors for whom records in the database WomenWriters are showing the importance, or for whom further research has been done. Focus will be on their attitude in the dialogues they are undertaking by publishing their works.
In this project, those considered as “authors” are women who wrote and published, be it their own texts or translations of texts by others, comments on others’ writings, etc. In other words, “intermediaries” are being classified here as “authors”.
This provisional definition is of course not wholly unproblematic: what about oral forms of literature, for example, for which reception documents are difficult to find? Wat about women, like Madame de Sévigné, who did not write for publication, but exerted considerable influence? These questions will be addressed in the first of the “NEWW November meetings” in Amsterdam (November 22, 2007).
Details will follow; for information: Suzan van Dijk.
We welcome short articles to be published here online, as far as they are resulting from research facilitated by the database WomenWriters (propositions are subject to peer review). They will be presented - for the sake of easily being found - according to the women's national identities:
Dutch authors
French authors
English authors
Swedish authors
