GENDERING REPRESENTATION

GENDERING REPRESENTATION

(co-sponsored by the Society for Medieval Feminist Scholarship and the Medieval Feminist Art History Project)

Organizer: Jennifer Borland



The 44th International Congress on Medieval Studies Kalamazoo, MI May 7-10, 2009



This session will investigate the gendering of the practice of representation in the Middle Ages, focusing in particular on the performance of gender through representation.



We welcome papers that engage with representation in a variety of formats, including visual, spatial, literary/textual, or historical representations. Contributions may deal with either the production and/or reception of representations, or consider representation from either individual or collective/corporate perspectives.

Interdisciplinarity is especially encouraged.



Please submit a one- to two-page abstract and coversheet to Jennifer Borland (jennifer.borland@okstate.edu) by September 15.
