Gendering Historiography

I am so excited to take a look at this book (left)! I just read a very interesting article in the latest issue of the PMLA (special topic: war), which got me thinking again about the often-overlooked connections between memory and gender and all that is still left to explore.

Comparing various European and American historiographies from the past two hundred years, Gendering Historiography provides insights into the establishment and cultivation of gendered power relations in different societies and outlines the devastating effects that exclusionary practices can have on each national canon. This detailed and revealing book will change the face of history writing, bringing overlooked and previously excluded histories back into modern historiography.
