One thing to love about conferences like #QueerBibliography is that you get scholars & librarians/archivists & others in the same place, talking about the complexities of the worlds we inhabit & their legacies & it just leads to richer & more connective understandings & ideas. π€
Richard Espley is giving us a fantastic discussion about what it means to be a collector, curator, and Jonathan Cutbillβs Haud Nominandum library; I am excited for our handling session of Gays The Word material following this session #QueerBibliography
the irrepressible and amazing @eliz_ott@twitter.com is up next at #QueerBibliography ; she points to the presentation by Monet yesterday and poses her paper in conversation and connection with it; we are also delving deep Ann Allen Shockleyβs Queer Librarianship & her erotic lesbian novels
also just a HUGE shoutout to the organizers of #QueerBibliography; Malcom Noble and Sarah Pyke; this is the first conference I've attended where the virtual and the in-person feels well integrated and supported, and the panels are paired π€π€π€ so perfectly well. π―/10
"pervasive miasma of homophobia"
"queer spaghetti networks"
so many good band names @ #QueerBibliography
next up at #QueerBibliography is Charley Matthrews with a most amusing title βThe cleverest and keenest of that race of Vipersβ: trans identities and book reviews in the early nineteenth century
@amndw2 : "something else is going on here"
#QueerBibliography audience: all repressing the urge to yell "ITS GAY"
@amndw2 brilliantly reads the commonplace books of a well-known 21stC woman and one of an 19thC woman side-by-side to reveal commonalities in queer commonplacing #QueerBibliography
NEXT UP IS THE THIRD ARM OF THE WATSON TRIUMVIRATE OF #QueerBibliography @amndw2! talking to us about commonplace books, a format I secretly love endlessly π€©
Loving Christopher Adams' talk about how John Guest edited Francis King's The Dividing Stream and how it 'did get a reputation among certain circles of being a "queer" book; also a lovely little history of #polyam / nonmonogamy ("aside from a little by-blow") #QueerBibliography
okay; I'm signing off from #QueerBIbliography today as my computer is just about dead and i am EXHAUSTED. more tomorrow!
#QueerBibliography "lesbian feminists smell like patchouli" -- no lies detected there
#QueerBibliography has been an incredible conference so far, full of love and joy and laughter and shared humor and histories against darkness of the news of censorship & hate. its giving me such energy and life for the fights ahead
next at #QueerBibliography -- ITS FIIIIIIINCH !! @finchinthestacks π€©π€©ππ -- alchemy's metahors represent queer relationships to books & bodies. "Metaphor also unites books and bodies. The body is not like a book, it is a book" π₯π₯
