Elizabeth Gaskell, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Sampson Low: Transatlantic Sociability and International Copyright
This talk by Dr Katie McGettigan examines an 1860 proposal from Harriet Beecher Stowe to Elizabeth Gaskell to co-author a book on Italy, using the never-realized project as a lens for exploring how these women writers navigated international copyright challenges and used social networks and sympathy to conduct their literary business.
