Women’s Political Thought in Europe 1700-1800

First call for Papers: Women’s Political Thought in Europe 1700-1800

August 25th-29th 2010, Prato, Italy.

Conference organisers: Associate Professor Karen Green, Dr Lisa
Curtis-Wendlandt and Dr Paul Gibbard

Offers of papers are invited for a conference on the contribution of
women to the history of political thought in Europe during the
Enlightenment period. Papers may discuss the political ideas of
individual women such as Mary Wollstonecraft, Catherine Macaulay,
Mary Hays, Sarah Churchill, Mary Delariviere Manley, Marie Jodin,
Emilie du Châtelet, Madame Dupin, Olympe de Gouges, Felicité
Keralio-Robert, Madame Roland, Germaine de Staël, Dorothea
Erxleben Leporin, Amalie Holst, Johanna Charlotte Unzer, Luise
Gottsched, Mariana von Ziegler, Elise Reimarus, Elisabetta Caminer
Turra, and others.
Papers placing the work of such women in the broader context of
political writing by men are encouraged. ‘Political thought’ is
broadly interpreted to include sexual politics as well as political
theory, and discussions of the political ideas of women as expressed
in genres other than the political treatise are welcome.

Submissions of title and one page abstract should be sent by 8th
March 2010,
to Karen.green at arts.monash.edu.au, or in hard copy to Karen Green,
School of
Philosophy and Bioethics, Monash University, Melbourne 3800,
Australia.

Up to five bursaries of up to $500 will be available to help
post-graduates
and early career researchers to attend the conference. Applicants who
wish
to be considered for one of these should indicate this with their
submission.

An edited volume on women’s political thought in Europe during the
eighteenth century is proposed, and contributions to the conference
may be
submitted for publication in this volume. Contributors who are unable
to
attend the Prato Conference, but would like to contribute a paper to
the
volume are invited to submit papers for consideration by September
30th
2010.
