FYI...Stefanie ------- Forwarded Message Follows ------- ANNOUNCING H-FRAUEN-L H-NET LIST ON WOMEN & GENDER IN EARLY MODERN EUROPE Sponsored by H-Net, Humanities & Social Sciences On-line Michigan State University H-Frauen-L is a free, moderated internet discussion forum on teaching and scholarship about women and gender in Early Modern Europe. We're a diverse group: some of us call ourselves "historians" -- of art, science and technology, politics, social and economic life, medicine, music, architecture, culture (popular or high), intellectual life, demography, or religion (popular or high) -- ; some of us call ourselves "anthropologists"; some of us call ourselves specialists in a(the) language(s) and literature(s) of Europe. All of us research and teach (in classrooms, in libraries, and in museums) about women and gender in the early modern period. The list and its associated website will provide teaching materials, translations, bibliographies, and the usual services available through H-Net lists. The H-FRAUEN-L list is co-edited by Kristin Zapalac <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and Sharon Michalove <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. The editors serve two-year renewable terms, with the approval of the H-Net Executive Committee and rotate their duties. The current editor will be identified in all messages coming from the list. The editors will solicit postings (by email, phone and even by regular mail), will assist people in managing subscriptions and setting up options, will handle routine inquiries, and will consolidate some postings. Anyone with suggestions about what H-FRAUEN-L can and might do is invited to send in ideas. The editors will solicit and post newsletter-type information (calls for conferences, for example, or listings of sessions at conventions.) They will also commission book and article reviews, and post book announcements from publishers. H-FRAUEN-L will be moderated to filter out extraneous messages (like requests for subscription) and items that do not belong on H-FRAUEN-L. They may belong somewhere else, or in the judgment of the editors they do not aid the scholarly dialogue. The editors will not alter the meaning of messages without the author's permission.
