Dear fellow Woolfians,

We are delighted to let you know that as part of the "Woolf Seminars" 
series, Anne Besnault is going to give a talk on *29 September, 2023 at 7 
pm* (Turkey time). The title of her talk is *"Unwriting and Rewriting 
History and Literary History: Woolf's Fictions and Essays"*. The poster of 
the talk is attached to this email and you can find the Eventbrite link for

The aim of Anne Besnault's talk is to introduce the audience to Woolf's 
historical thought seen from the vantage point of the past and contemporary 
historiographical discourses that she responded to; to offer a new vision 
of Woolf as a literary historian essentially interested in the textuality 
of history — its readability and intelligibility, what it writes, unwrites, 
leaves unfinished and excludes; and to uncover the specific coherence of 
her history of nineteenth-century women’s literature beyond its apparent 
heterogeneity and contradictory impulses.

Anne Besnault is Senior Lecturer in English Literature at the University of 
Rouen – Normandy, France. Her research focuses on modernist fiction and 
criticism, short story theory, genre and gender studies in nineteenth- and 
twentieth century British literature, literary history, Katherine 
Mansfield, and Virginia Woolf’s essays and fiction. With Anne-Florence 
Gillard-Estrada, she is the co-editor of *Beyond the Victorian and 
Modernist Divide: Remapping the Turn-of-the-Century Break in Literature, 
Culture and the Visual Arts* (Routledge, 2018). She is also the author of *Virginia 
Woolf’s Unwritten Histories: Conversations with the Nineteenth Century* (Routledge: 
2022).

Bring your ideas, enthusiasm and questions! We hope to meet you all online 
on 29 September, 2023 at 7 pm (Turkey time). 

Woolfully yours,

VWST
