This panel invites papers that examine how early modern women were imagined and represented across genres and cultural contexts. From historical figures to literary characters, how were women positioned in relation to authority, virtue, sexuality, or empire?  How were women written, circulated, obscured, or celebrated in early modern texts? What roles did women play in shaping narratives of gender, race, and power? This panel welcomes work that attends to both the forms of representation and the structures that produced or obscured women’s presence in the early modern world. What kinds of authority or ambivalence did gendered figures carry, and how did race, class, and empire shape their depiction or erasure?

British cultural production has a long history of foreclosure. Understood as a premature abandonment, or an abortive failure, of radical political projects, foreclosure has an imaginative and material register in working-class writing, which has been read since the 1930s as failing to experiment, relying on realism without meaningful engagement with questions of literary form. This view has been challenged by literary scholars, who have demonstrated that formal experimentation did exist, though not in ways that comfortably align with the usual reading of middle-class modernism (Clarke Working Class Writing, 2018).
