Journal of Women's History Guide to

The political activism of the 1970s was followed by an explosion of feminist scholarship in the 1908s. The Journal of WomenÕs History was founded to provide a means of disseminating that scholarship and to serve as the journal of record for the new area of womenÕs history. As part of its mission, the journal began a compilation of periodical literature dealing with womenÕs history. This first volume is drawn from more than 750 journals and includes material published from 1980 through 1990. There are forty subject categories, divided into numerous subcategories. The guide lists more than 5,500 articles; all are extensively cross-listed. In her foreword, Christie Farnham outlines the evolution of a journal devoted to womenÕs history as a part of the transformation of the history profession by the feminist movement. Joan HoffÕs introduction is a substantive discussion of the development of womenÕs history as a discipline.
