Women in the Archives is a one-day colloquium co-sponsored by the Women Writers Project and the Sarah Doyle Women’s Center at Brown University, to be held on April 24, 2010 at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.
Women in the Archives explores the use of archival materials in the study of women’s writing, and the construction of disciplinary practices in archival research and pedagogy. This year the theme is “England/New England”, focusing on periodization and regionality in women’s writing during the colonial period. The keynote presentation will be by Elizabeth Maddock Dillon.
