SUMMARY:Suffragettes At Home:’ Representations of Domestic Labour in the Feminist Press\, Britain 1908-1914
DESCRIPTION:In 1910\, the Vote (the newspaper of the Women’s Freedom League) launched a photography competition inviting their suffragette readers to send in photographs of themselves engaged in domestic labour. The result was a bizarre series of images depicting the leaders of the militant suffrage movement performing mundane household tasks\, such as cleaning the stove and cooking a vegetarian dinner. Whether this competition\, entitled ‘Suffragettes At Home’\, was intended seriously or as a joke remains unclear\, and historians have interpreted it in markedly contradictory ways. In this paper I examine the ‘Suffragettes At Home’ series as a way into exploring the contradictions and complexities of first wave feminists’ attitude to the ‘problem’ of housework. While representations of domestic labour were ubiquitous across the feminist press during this period\, reflecting an important reality in the lives of its female readership\, the new figure of the modern emancipated woman was most commonly depicted as detesting housework. This in turn touched on the wider and more fundamental problem of who should perform the necessary reproductive labour once feminists had succeeded in their struggle to liberate women from the confines of the home.\nLaura Schwartz is Assistant Professor of Modern British History at the University of Warwick. She researches the history of British feminism in the nineteenth and twentieth century\, and is the author of Infidel Feminism: Secularism\, Religion and Women’s’ as Emancipation\, England 1830-1914 (Manchester University Press\, 2013) and A Serious Endeavour: Gender\, Education and Community at St Hughs\, 1886-2011 (Profile Books\, 2011). Her current research looks at the relationship between ‘first wave’ feminism and early domestic workers’ struggles. \nThis event is sponsored by the Center for Research on Women and Social Justice/Hull Chair and the departments of History and Feminist Studies.  \nhm 10/25/13

SUMMARY:University Press Publishing in the Age of Kindle
DESCRIPTION:In spite of the frequent coverage in the New York Times\, Chronicle of Higher Education\, Publishers Weekly\, Inside Higher Ed\, and on listservs\, websites\, scholarly journal articles and beyond\, the students\, assistant professors\, and even published authors at higher ranks has failed to keep up with the very rapid pace of change in scholarly publishing. Most faculty are unaware of how open access\, consortia of presses selling e-books to libraries\, the decline of bookstores both chain and independent\, cutbacks in library funding\, competition of book sales with expensive journal purchases by libraries\, decline of review media\, and general lack of funding in academia are  made after successful review of manuscripts.time\, they also need advice about how to do that successfully. Discount schedules\, “crossover books\,” and what it takes to reach so-called general or interdisciplinary readers are topics that few  mystify many. Publishers need the help of faculty to publicize and promote their books in ways that were not previously needed\, and more than ever before\, they prefer to publish books by academics the issues Mitchner will address in her visit with faculty and students at UCSB.\nLeslie Mitchner is the Associate Director and Editor in Chief at Rutgers University Press\, where she has been acquiring books in numerous art history\, African American studies\, women’s and gender studies\, Asian American studies\, and more) for over thirty years. She oversees a department that has strong publication lists in anthropology\, sociology\, Jewish studies\, human rights\, childhood studies\, higher education\, criminology\, and clinical health and medicine. A frequent participant on panels at national conferences and a guest speaker on Connecticut State University\, Stony Brook University\, Boston College\, NYU\, Virginia Tech\, San Francisco State University) she gives talks to large and small groups of faculty on the constant changes in publishing  publishers for their work. She has published articles in Cinema Journal and Scholarly Publishing. \nSponsored by the Department of Film and Media Studies\, the Department of History\, the Department of English and the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center \nhm 10/10/14
