Greetings! I wanted to share a talk that I am giving with the "Women, Gender and Early Modern World" research group at the Harvard Mahindra Center.
The talk is from my second book project in progress (The Body Perfect: the Aesthetics of Ableism in the Early Modern French and Francophone World). This particular talk is titled "'In a Manner that Might have No': Sexual Desire and Intellectual Disability in French Fairy Tales" https://mahindrahumanities.fas.harvard.edu/event/manner-might-have-meant-no-sexual-desire-and-intellectual-disability-early-modern
The talk is 10/22 at 5 PM EST (4PM CST) and the zoom link will be sent upon registration. I'd love to see you there!
Warm regards,
Jennie
