Join us for a compelling discussion titled 'The Bovary Stigma: Mental Health and Norms in Literature,' which dives into the portrayal of women in 19th and 20th-century literature. Led by Laia Mestre, this session will critically examine how authors such as Flaubert, Virginia Woolf, and Sylvia Plath depict female characters who challenge established societal norms. We'll explore the representations of women as seen through the lens of mental health, societal expectations, and psychoanalysis, considering how literature has historically mirrored and influenced perceptions of femininity. This discussion invites participants to reflect on concepts of conformity, deviation, and the social dynamics at play across eras. Engage in meaningful dialogue about the impact literature has on our understanding of gender and mental health.
