About this event
Join historian Charlotte Mackenzie for this talk about her new book ‘Women writers and Georgian Cornwall’.
In her new book, Charlotte MacKenzie explores the lives of women writers connected with Cornwall during the Georgian era. All were published authors. Cornwall influenced the writing of the Brontës through their mother’s Cornish relations. Charlotte introduces the lives and writing of twelve women who are less well known than the Brontës, including Catherine Phillips, Elizabeth Trefusis, Dorothy Enys and Anna Maria Wood. The purpose of Charlotte’s book “Women writers and Georgian Cornwall” (2020) is to unforget these women’s lives and writing, and examine what they can tell us about Cornwall’s history, culture, and literary traditions.
The talk will take place on Zoom. Please book your ticket through Eventbrite. Joining instructions will be sent out via email by 2pm on Thursday 11 February.
