Free Download Mary Spongberg, "Writing Women's History Since the Renaissance"
English | ISBN: 0333726677 | 2002 | 308 pages | EPUB | 400 KB
The complaint of Catherine Morland in Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey, that history has 'hardly any women at all' is not an uncommon one. Yet there is evidence to suggest that women have engaged in historical writing since ancient times.
