<Title>Jessica Berman Delivers Keynote Lecture at International Conference in Estonia</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><div>Jessica Berman, Professor of English, recently delivered a keynote lecture at an international conference on transnational modernist women's writing in Estonia. Read a message from Berman about her experience here:</div><div><br></div><blockquote><div>In early October I was honored to present an invited keynote lecture at the conference on "<a href="https://maailmakeeled.ut.ee/en/content/borders-margins-cartographies-transnational-modernist-womens-writing" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Borders, Margins, Cartographies: Transnational Modernist Women’s Writing</a>" at the University of Tartu, Estonia. My talk, “Transing Modernism in Argentina”, based on my nearly complete book, explored gender and embodiment in Argentine modernism on the radio and in print. The conference was full of exciting work from an international group of scholars on little known women writers of the twentieth century. I also had a chance to explore a bit of Estonia, which was great! It's a beautiful country with a rich history that I'm glad to have learned about. I'm grateful to have been able to visit.</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div><img src="https://english.umbc.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/242/2024/10/Berman-image-from-Tartu-lecture-Small-crop.tiff" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto;"><em>Berman delivers her keynote lecture at the University of Tartu conference.</em></div></div>
