AWW Gen 0

Australian Women Writers Gen 0 Week 14-21 Jan. 2024

Mary Woolstonecraft

I am using ‘Gen 0’ as a designation for those writers – necessarily not Australian – whose work influenced, predated or paralleled the first wave feminists of AWW Gen 1. I will add to this page from time to time as I come up with material.

Brona in After Sappho has a list of writers referencing Sappho. Many of the writers in that list will fit right in here.
