«How has feminist scholarship changed
history? Writing Gender
History explores the
evolution of historical writing about women and gender from the 1930s until the
early twenty-first century. With chapters on the history of Europe, the USA,
colonial India and Africa, the discussion moves from women's history to gender
history, and then to poststructuralist challenges to that history. This revised
edition includes an exciting new chapter looking at recent scholarship on race,
gender and sexuality in colonial and transnational history, and on the history
of the body. Highly accessibly but also encouraging new debate, this
book provides students with a comprehensive understanding of gender history, as
well as its possible future».
