Sappho of Lesbos and representations of women's sexuality in Special Collections

Melbourne Rare Book Week

Event Date: 3 July 2018
Author / Presenters: Monash University Library, Mia Goodwin

This talk explores the archival process of historical recordings of sexuality, as represented in fictive works. Rather than titillating representations aimed at heterosexual male audiences, this talk explores which woman-centric works have been collected historically, and why.

Tuesday 3rd July 3:00pm - 4:00pm [Bookings required]
