>

>
> In recent years the ‘archival turn’ in feminist scholarship and gender and
> queer theory has expanded talk of the archive well beyond history - and
> indeed well beyond traditional forms of scholarship - to prompt debates and
> interventions across academic areas, and between scholars, cultural
> practitioners, archivists and activists over the modes and politics of
> archiving, and the ways in which feminists and others create, construct and
> research ‘archives’.
>
>
>
> This workshop is designed as a space for discussion across disciplines
> about the ways in which we understand, theorise and use archives from
> different academic perspectives, the ways in which archives and archival
> research is gendered, and the ways in which feminist interventions are
> changing the definition and shape of archives in the process.
>
>
>
> The day will consist of two panel presentations (morning and afternoon),
> followed by a final roundtable and reception. There will be plenty of time
> for group discussion and exchange of ideas and experiences among speakers
> and participants.
