Violent Femmes: Eighteenth-Century Violent Women This panel will examine representations of feminine violence in the eighteenth century. Papers discussing the historical context of feminine violence as depicted in such sources as criminal biographies and conduct manuals are particularly encouraged, as are examinations of violent women in the poetry, drama, or fiction of the period. However, any discussion of feminine violence in the "long" eighteenth century (1660-1820) is welcome. SCSECS meets 2/25-2/27 in Shreveport, Louisiana. Please send abstracts by 10/1/98 via email to: [log in to unmask] or to: Margo Collins University of North Texas Dept. of English, Box 311307 Denton, TX 76203 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
