We are thrilled to announce our inaugural seminar, which will take place on Monday, February 8th, between 11:30 and 1PM, in room T2 2.044 at the Maison de la Recherche, 29 Avenue Robert Schuman, Aix-en-Provence.
In collaboration with our colleagues in the Observatoire des Relations Extérieures du Monde Anglophone (OREMA) we shall have the privilege of discussing a paper presented by Dr Julie Gottlieb, Reader in Modern History at the University of Sheffield entitled, “Conservative Women, Foreign Affairs, and the other “F-Word” in the Aftermath of Suffrage”.
Dr Gottlieb is a specialist of interwar Britain, particularly of the political engagements of women, from fascism (Feminine Fascism) to feminism (Feminism and Feminists after Suffrage). Her latest work explores women’s involvement in the shaping of, and opposition to, Neville Chamberlain’s policy of appeasement (Guilty Women).
