Editors' Note on Conversations
The Conversations section of ABO was established during the COVID-19 pandemic to create an ongoing space for traditional and non-traditional authors to exchange ideas in informed, personal, timely conversation on issues of significance to eighteenth-century studies and feminist scholarship. Pieces in Conversations are not peer-reviewed or heavily edited, as we strive to represent the authentic voices of the authors. ABO does not tolerate hate speech at all in submissions or related social media.Scholarship
