Gender and Otherness in the Humanities (GOTH) is a research centre based in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at The Open University. The relationship between gender and otherness throughout time and across the Arts and Humanities forms the focal point of our investigations. The group includes a variety of fields within the Humanities including English Literature, Creative Writing, Music, History, Theatre Studies, Art History, Classical Studies and more, exploring topics related to the themes of gender and otherness.
