Remembering Amelia Edwards this Pride Month
Description (This can only be plain text, i.e. no links or bullet points.)
This year the EES celebrated Pride by remembering their founder, Amelia B Edwards. Amelia was a Victorian novelist, travel writer, and pioneer of British Egyptology, but her personal life and relations with other women have often been ignored by the field she founded.
