Men and Women in the Book Trade: Changing gender roles over 500 years
Sunday 26 & Monday 27 November 2017 at Stationers’ Hall Ave Maria Lane, London EC4M 7DD
This year’s annual conference on book trade history will explore ways in which gender has shaped the organization as well as the output of the trade from the early modern period to the recent past. Issues relating to the management and practice of printing and bookselling will be set alongside shifts in the patterns of demand, ownership and readership, as men and women maintained or redefined their mutual roles in business and employment, as well as in society at large.
