Please join us for a conference on Margaret Fuller presented by the Massachusetts Historical Society and the Margaret Fuller Society.
Margaret Fuller and Her Circles will be held April 8-10, 2010, at the Massachusetts Historical Society, 1154 Boylston Street in Boston. The Conference will commence on Thursday evening with a keynote address by Mary Kelley of the University of Michigan. On Friday and Saturday, Fuller scholars from throughout the country will present four sessions devoted to the topics “Fuller and Women,” “Fuller and Antebellum Movements,” “Fuller and Urban Culture,” and “The Transatlantic Fuller.”
Aside from the keynote speaker, presenters will not deliver their papers aloud; the papers under discussion will be available at the Society’s website to registered attendees approximately one month before the program. The registration fee is $75 ($50 for students). For more information and to register, visit www.masshist.org/events/conferences.cfm. You may register on-line or print out and mail a registration form. Questions? Please phone Kate Viens, Research Coordinator, at 617-646-0568.
As a Transcendentalist, feminist theorist, literary journal editor, surveyor of reform institutions, and foreign correspondent, Margaret Fuller (1810-1850) was one of the central figures of the antebellum period. We hope that you will join us for what promises to be a fascinating exchange of ideas and insights about this remarkable woman.
