Böcker av Bonnie G. Smith

Based on the scholarship of a global team of diverse authors, this wide-ranging handbook surveys the history and current status of pro-women thought and activism over millennia.

Shares the memories of a Parisian woman about turn-of-the-century France, World War I, and the period between the wars.

In this study of the gendering of the practice of history, Smith resurrects amateur history written by women in the 19th century-a type of history condemned as trivial by "scientific" male historians. She demonstrates the degree to which the profession defined itself in opposition to amateurism, femininity, and alternative ways of writing history.
