It will take place on 26th October 2012 at the IGRS, University of London. There are some places available, at a fee of £15, for colleagues and postgraduates from any discipline who have an interest in the topic. The workshop will focus on the relationship between mothering and paid work in a cross-cultural and interdisciplinary context. It aims to identify specific problem areas relating to this relationship in Europe, asking what kinds of insights literature may offer to the issues raised. (There may be some funding available for those travelling from Europe, though unfortunately not from the UK.) Those who wish to attend should please contact Professor Gill Rye, [log in to unmask], by 15th September. The Network has now launched its website, which can be found here: http://www.igrs.sas.ac.uk/research-fellowships/ahrc-post-1968-motherhood-european-literature-network Please also take a look at the Network's blog: http://motherhoodresearchnetwork.blogspot.co.uk/ To join the mailing list, or to make any enquiries or suggestions, please email the Research Network Coordinator: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>. -------------------------------------------- Dr Adalgisa Giorgio Senior Lecturer in Italian Italian Language Convenor Coordinator: Year Abroad in Italy, Assistantships Abroad, Incoming Erasmus and Visiting Students.
