New Directions – Gender, Sex and Sexuality in 20th Century British History

Tuesday 8 April 2014, University College London

With a keynote address by Professor Laura Doan, University of Manchester

This one day workshop brings together scholars, at any stage of their career and working on any aspect of gender, sex and sexuality in 20th century Britain, for the presentation of new work and the beginning of a dialogue about the past, present and future of the field.

The workshop programme includes a keynote address from Professor Laura Doan, followed by four panels of three papers, with time for discussion: ‘Rethinking religion, rethinking conservatism’; ‘Gender, sex and sexuality in space’; ‘Material and public cultures’; ‘National, imperial and transnational frames’.

Registration for this workshop is now open. If you would like to attend please email newdirections2014@gmail.com. There is no registration fee. Please note that due to the size of the venue, space is limited and places will therefore generally be reserved on a first-come-first-served basis. However, we would particularly like to encourage registrations from postgraduate and early career scholars.
