What is gender and who has it? History, theory and gender are
inextricably linked, but how exactly do they fit together? How do
historians use theories about gender to write history? In this

subjectmatter and methods of gender history. Assuming no prior
knowledge, Gender and History: - Sets out clear definitions of
theory, history and gender - Explains that gender is not solely
applicable to women, but to men as well - Tackles the hotly debated
topic of power and gender relations - Explores gender history from
a variety of angles, including anthropology, psychology and
philosophy - Spans a broad chronological period, from the times of
Aristotle to the present day - Includes a helpful glossary that
explains key terms and concepts at a glance Lively and
approachable, this is an essential text for anyone who wishes to
learn how to use theories of gender in their historical studies.
