Women in French Session
2024 South Central Modern Language Association (SCMLA) Conference
New Orleans, LA
September 18-21, 2014
This panel proposal seeks to explore the intersection of women's writing and history, examining how women authors have used literature as a tool to challenge societal norms, document their experiences, and shape historical narratives. From memoirs to fiction, poetry to essays, women writers have played a crucial role in recording and interpreting history from their unique perspectives. Through this panel, we aim to celebrate and amplify the voices of women writers who have contributed to our understanding of history, literature, and society.
By exploring the diverse range of genres, themes, and perspectives represented in women's literary works, we hope to inspire further research, appreciation, and recognition of women's contributions to both literature and history. This panel welcomes papers that delve into the diverse range of literary works produced by women across different time periods, cultures, and genres, highlighting their contributions to our understanding of the past as they offer alternative perspectives and challenging dominant narratives.
