Cultural and Corporeal Adaptation Holly Luhning is a Lecturer in Creative Writing at the Univer-sity of Surrey. Her academic focus is on Eliza Haywood, eighteenth-century print culture, and theories of the body. She is also a novelist and poet. Her talk will consider how the writer Eliza Haywood first emerged in the literary marketplace, and move on to examine her often-neglected, but formally innova-tive mid-career, with particular focus on Adventures of Eovaai, and her translation of Crebillon’s Le Sopha.
