Comparative Literature

National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington

Professor Karen Newman featured as part of an exhibit currently at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington: an "interpretation of the Paris studio alcove" of Simone de Beauvoir (seeĀ https://nmwa.org/learn/library-archives/library-exhibitions). Above her desk, de Beauvoir had a bulletin board with pictures, quotations, etc.; this has been "reconstructed" with pictures and quotations from critics and theorists who work on her today.
