STORIES

Plenary: Stories - Thursday, 1:30 pm
This plenary concerned women as creators and subjects of narratives in the early modern period. Texts of many kinds offer narratives of gender and culture, among them: fictions, history, law, polemics, medical treatises. What gender paradigms do these stories reveal, and what are their conventions? How do men's and women's stories differ? What kinds of stories do we as scholars make about early modern women and gender? We suggested that you interpret "story" broadly to include poetry, art, and music, as well as historical and literary narratives.
