## Research project

### Ecstatic Inquiry: Women’s Writing on Religion in Britain, 1890–1930

This project recounts how the first generation of British women academics fashioned humanistic research into a spiritual practice. Rather than offering dispassionate histories of religion, these scholars presented their intellectual labor as extending—and revealing—a secret tradition of women’s intellectual and spiritual seeking.
