The fifteen chapters that comprise the collection draw on evidence from Schreiner\u2019s friendships, networks, letters, and political and literary writings, to demonstrate distinct, situated understandings of the significance of Schreiner\u2019s politics and aesthetics for diverse individuals, coteries and communities globally, across a range of fields, and in a variety of forms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In November, we hosted a series of online conversations for the contributors to the collection. These were highly enjoyable and productive, and drew out various connections between the topics under discussion, which included: Schreiner and\/on labour, race, eco-\/feminism, anarchism, religion and modernism; Schreiner\u2019s networks (including in the UK, USA, South Africa, India and beyond, and involving figures such as Edward Carpenter, Sol Plaatje, Amy Levy, John Tengo Jabavu and others); Schreiner in translation; Schreiner in the world (South Africa, the UK, the Netherlands, Sweden, USA, Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia); Schreiner in the museum; and Schreiner\u2019s influence on later Southern African writers J. M. Coetzee, Bessie Head, and Zo\u00eb Wicomb.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The collection will comprise chapters authored by the following contributors: Barnita Bagchi; Heidi Barends; Emma Barnes; Dorothy Driver;&nbsp;Ma\u0142gorzata Drwal; Jeremy Fogg and Paul Walters; Clare Gill; Nicholas Jose, Alex Sutcliffe and Mandy Treagus; Jade Munslow Ong; Sanja Nivesj\u00f6; Janet Remmington; Mark Sanders; Liz Stanley; Andrew van der Vlies; and Dan Wylie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.southafricanmodernism.com\/schools\"><strong>Schools<\/strong><\/a><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In January 2021 we were awarded \u00a32200 jointly by the School of Arts, Media and Creative Technologies and the Research Impact Fund at the University of Salford.
