New Directions in Gender and Sexuality Studies School of Modern Languages Research Seminars

Leslie Barnes (National University of Australia)

Katie Kadue (University of Chicago)

Jonathan Mullins (Ohio State University)

Margarita Vaysman (University of St Andrews)

This virtual seminar will feature research at the intersection of gender studies and studies of labour, broadly defined. Ranging from the early modern period to the era of #MeToo, papers will consider Pierre de Ronsard's belaboured misogynist poetics; the work of literary collaboration in nineteenth-century Russia; queer counterculture in the Italian 1970s; and recent Cambodian responses to forced marriage under the Khmer Rouge.
