The Pre-Modern Gender and Sexuality Working Group is an interdisciplinary forum for sharing, discussing, and presenting work on gender and sexuality in pre-modern (defined as prior to c. 1750) societies and cultures. PMGS invites students and academic fellows from all departments and disciplines to discuss their work with like-minded colleagues. The group also addresses issues of sources, methods, and frameworks for the study of pre-modern societies.
Save the date for our next event! We will hold a workshop on “Using Manuscripts to Teach Pre-Modern Gender” on October 28th at noon.
Please e-mail Sarah or Katherine if you are interested in presenting a project at PMGS this year, or if you would like further information or to be added to our e-mail list.
