10 September 2012 was organized a seminar "Interrelationality in Baltic Women's Deportation and Gulag Narratives" dr. Leena Kurvet-Käosaar (Tartu university). Focusing on the representation of suffering in the deportation stories of Estonian women within a comparative frame of similar narratives by Latvian and Lithuanian women, the objective of the research has been to reflect on different representation and conceptualisation possibilities of the Baltic experience of the hurtfulness of the repressions of the Soviet regime where gender emerges as an important category of delineation of the impact and implications of such experience.
