"Women's Autobiography: Private Memories, Public Voices." Panel for Northeast
Modern Language Association (NEMLA), Philadelphia, March 2-5, 2006.

This panel will examine critical questions about women�s autobiographical
writing, a topic which has generated wide interest over the past three decades.
Looking at women�s writing in this genre from historical and theoretical
perspectives complicates the issues raised in discussions of autobiographical
writing and identifies the use of strategies such as imitation, masquerade,
subversion, and disruption of conventions. Papers may focus on different types
of autobiographical writing by women in different historical time periods and
cultures.
