Where do we look for evidence on the circulation of women’s writing?

Throughout the first year of TTT we have questioned and compared our sources of evidence, building on the many discussions about this question we had during the COST Action Women Writers in History. As an exercise in methodological transparency we have marked the end of the first year of TTT by compiling a critical overview of our source material, which you can find here:  Taking stock at the end of year 1:_Critical, comparative report on the sources used in TTT  Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any comments about our sources and how we use them!
