About this product
Product Information
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.

This fills an important gap in the range of books available on historiography. I envisage that the 'case-study' approach in chapters will be useful to students (i.e hopefully will encourage them to read the texts featured)., "Puts the entire range of women's and gender history into context, showing how it challenges the conventional pieties, opens up new veins of research, and transforms our understanding of every aspect of history. Her command of the literature is simply astounding and her work is sure to be seen as a landmark in the development of the field of history in the broadest sense."-Lynn Hunt, UCLA (first edition) "Ingenuity and perspicuity shine through Laura Lee Downs superb distillation and analysis of women's and gender history. To understand accomplishments and changes in the field, put this book at the top of your list."-Nancy Cott, Harvard University (first edition), "Puts the entire range of women's and gender history into context, showing how it challenges the conventional pieties, opens up new veins of research, and transforms our understanding of every aspect of history. Her command of the literature is simply astounding and her work is sure to be seen as a landmark in the development of the field of history in the broadest sense." -- Lynn Hunt, UCLA (first edition) "Ingenuity and perspicuity shine through Laura Lee Downs superb distillation and analysis of women's and gender history. To understand accomplishments and changes in the field, put this book at the top of your list." -- Nancy Cott, Harvard University (first edition), "The author's grasp and presentation of such diverse material is astounding ... [This is] a sophisticated examination of some of the applications of theory and one which offers an indispensable bibliography ... The author presents and explores a dazzling array of voices, which together can form no easy narrative - and this is much the point of the book." -- Cultural and Social History (of the first edition) "Downs puts the entire range of women's and gender history into context, showing how it challenges the conventional pieties, opens up new veins of research, and transforms our understanding of every aspect of history. Her command of the literature is simply astounding and her work is sure to be seen as a landmark in the development of the field of history in the broadest sense." -- Lynn Hunt, Eugen Weber Professor of Modern European History, UCLA (about the first edition) "Ingenuity and perspicuity shine through Laura Lee Downs' superb distillation and analysis of women's and gender history. To understand accomplishments and changes in the field, put this book at the top of your list." -- Nancy F. Cott, Jonathan Trumbull Professor of American History, Harvard University (about the first edition) "This fills an important gap in the range of books available on historiography. I envisage that the 'case-study' approach in chapters will be useful to students (i.e hopefully will encourage them to read the texts featured)." -- Anne Logan, University of Kent, UK (about the first edition) "No better guide to the field exists than this richly satisfying text." -- Gender and History (about the first edition), This fills an important gap in the range of books available on historiography. I envisage that the 'case-study' approach in chapters will be useful to students i.e hopefully will encourage them to read the texts featured.)
