Aphra Behn on the Move
18-20 juin 2025
Université Paris Cité (Amphi Pierre-Gilles de Gennes, Bâtiment Condorcet), Sorbonne Université (Salle des Actes, Sorbonne), Université Sorbonne nouvelle (C 405, Campus Nation) - Paris (France)
With a new edition of Aphra Behn's works on the go, and as Canterbury has just erected a statue in her honour, the moment seems ideal to re-examine Behn's place and her work in criticism and in the collective imagination. Challenging the image of Behn as loyal to a conservative Tory imagination, this conference aims to emphasize movement, mobility, decentering, and innovation in her oeuvre.
