History and Theory - Early Modern Colloquium Series
Impressions from the study trip to Berlin in 2022
Workshop: "Child Slaveries in the Early Modern World, 1500–1800"
Academic Profile
I am currently focusing on the case study of Antonia Forster (1758–1823), the sister of Georg Forster. Antonia Forster was a teacher who worked in the big capitals as well as in the most remote places of Europe, generating a network that reached the best known academic and political circles of the time. Using this case study, I am researching asymmetrical dependencies in early modern Europe by focusing on aspects of gender, knowledge and labour.
