Beyond Women's Words unites feminist scholars, artists, and
community activists working with the stories of women and other
historically marginalized subjects to address the contributions and
challenges of doing feminist oral history. Feminists who work with
oral history methods want to tell stories that matter. They know,
too, that the telling of those stories-the processes by which they
are generated and recorded, and the different contexts in which
they are shared and interpreted-also matters-a lot. Using Sherna
Berger Gluck and Daphne Patai's classic text, Women's Words, as a
platform to reflect on how feminisms, broadly defined, have
influenced, and continue to influence, the wider field of oral
history, this remarkable collection brings together an
international, multi-generational, and multidisciplinary line-up of
authors whose work highlights the great variety in understandings
of, and approaches to, feminist oral histories. Through five
thematic sections, the volume considers Indigenous modes of
storytelling, feminism in diverse locales around the globe,
different theoretical approaches, oral history as performance,
digital oral history, and oral history as community-engagement.
Beyond Women's Words is ideal for students of oral history,
anthropology, public history, women's and gender history, and
Women's and Gender Studies, as well as activists, artists, and
community-engaged practitioners.
