DESCRIPTION:Started in 2012 at the University of Illinois at Chicago\, this
  annual event has a new topic every year. The 2024 theme is "Women\, Innov
 ation\, and the Making of Modernity." Modernity is conventionally aligned 
 with the movement of time’s arrow: concepts of progress\, development\, 
 discovery\, and innovation all point inexorably forward and promise societ
 al and even biological betterment. In the annals of history\, men predomin
 ate as primary drivers of scientific discovery and literary experimentatio
 n\, both of which are often instrumentalized to aid progress and its discu
 rsive construction. This year’s Workshop on Russian & Eurasian Modernism
 s examines women's cutlural innovations that complement\, problematize\, a
 nd/or challenge narratives of modernity as a male-driven phenomenon.\n\n \
