The Gender in Modern Culture Research Seminar Series is new in 2009-10. Intended to bring together scholars working on gender in the Faculties of Arts and Humanities and Sciences and Social Sciences, the series comprises papers from Liverpool Hope University staff as well as external speakers on a range of topics. The papers deal with gender in the literary and visual arts across the modern period, as well as in contemporary popular culture and embrace a range of approaches - empirical, theoretical, interdisciplinary and so on.
