We'll be chatting a bit about the archival work of @EngenderStage, including our recent @SAAupdates seminar on archival violence and the work of @ojl2283, @EarlyModernMel, and @daughterofben

@wilson_hannahl @Ben_WT Susannah Mintz, Hurt and Pain: Literature and the Suffering Body (2014); Sara Newman, Writing Disability: A Critical History (2012); and its quite old now, but Susan Wendell, The Rejected Body (1996) was really helpful for me when I started thinking about these topics?

@sueelawrence @EngenderStage It was new to me too! Love the idea of these women ransoming their men folk. Maybe that's what our c.21st feminism is missing...! 🤔

[Mel Harrison @EarlyModernMel]

My first tweet to celebrate my first blog for @EngenderStage! Why did women tie up and demand money from men in c.16th Reading? https://t.co/178L32Tjr7
