Pal is a historian of early modern Europe, who specializes in gender, knowledge, and the history of the book. Her research focuses on the people and practices involved in knowledge-making from the Renaissance to the Enlightenment—the men and women who loved learning, the networks they formed in order to produce and share new ideas, and the letters and publications that put those ideas into circulation. She is revising her PhD dissertation, Republic of Women: Rethinking the Republic of Letters, 1630–1680 for publication, and her article on the intellectual family, “Forming familles d'alliance: Intellectual Kinship in the Republic of Letters,” is forthcoming in a collection from Ashgate. BA, Mills College; PhD, Stanford University. Pal joins the Bennington faculty in the fall of 2008.
