While many of the Press\u2019 gothic women writers remain in obscurity due to the reputation of Lane\u2019s Press as a \u2018factory of cheap, formulaic novels\u2019, reclaiming these women can in fact contribute to new formations of the Romantic canon, in turn destabilising the gendered binaries that persist within evaluations of what constitutes literary value (Neiman, p.1). As Kathleen Hudson notes in her introduction to&nbsp;<em>Women\u2019s Authorship and the Early Gothic: Legacies and Innovations<\/em>(2020): \u2018in seeking new paths into the gothic, we must remember that the mode itself is a study of lost, hidden and marginalised voices\u2019 (p.18).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This PGR\/ECR online workshop offers a panel of speakers focusing on \u2018the hidden and marginalised voices\u2019 of Minerva Press and raises the question: why reclaim Minerva\u2019s gothic fiction now? Participants will have the opportunity to contribute their ideas to an informal discussion regarding the Minerva Press and its place within studies of Romanticism and the gothic. A key quotes sheet and bibliography will be circulated in advance of the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Programme&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>13:00-13:10 \u2013 Welcome<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"gmail-inline-ad-0\">13:10-13:50 \u2013 Flash talks from panel (Beth Brigham, Colette Davies and Fern Pullan)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>13:50-14:00 \u2013 Q&amp;A<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>14:00-14:30 \u2013 Roundtable Discussion&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To register<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.co.uk\/e\/255114774157\" target=\"_blank\"><strong> click here<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An Online Workshop for Postgraduate and Early Career Researchers Monday 28th February, 1pm \u2013 2:30pm GMT (WORKSHOP POSTPONED DUE TO UCU STRIKE ACTION &#8211; NEW DATE 10 MARCH 5pm-6:30pm GMT)&#8230; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/?p=4070\">Read more &raquo;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":""},"categories":[8,10],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4070"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4070"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4070\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4092,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4070\/revisions\/4092"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4070"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4070"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bars.ac.uk\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4070"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
