HIST338: Writing Women's History
This unit will focus on women's engagement with historical writing since antiquity. Exploring the intersection between religion, reform and revolution this unit will examine women's various means of producing history from the vitae of saints produced by Medieval nuns, through the confessional history produced by Catholic and Protestant women during the Reformation, the historical fictions and national tales that heralded romantic history, to the more explicitly feminist writings of women that appeared in the wake of French Revolution.
