- Description
- Special consideration in this volume is given to gender issues arising during periods when upheaval challenged colonial regimes, which often resulted in decolonization and independence. Chapters also reveal how former colonies transitioned into ‘nations,’ along with transnational dynamics that took place among modern states. A common thread woven through each article is the matter of precisely who it was that deserved to be treated and recognized as fully human in an era of imperial exchanges and ongoing capitalist globalization. Authors describe hemes as labour, commodities, fashion, mobility, and activism while exploring the dynamics of empire in destinations ranging from Africa and the Americas to Europe and Asia. .Originally published as Gender & History Volume 26 Issue 3

- Description
- This book brings shows the ways in which African women participated in economic, social and political spaces in Atlantic coast societies. the contributors examine the role of petty traders and enslaved women in communities from Sierra Leone to Benguela.

- Description
- This book engages current scholarship on women in Texas, the South, and the United States. It provides insights into Texas’s geographic position, bordering on the West and sharing a history with Mexico, while analyzing the ways in which Texas stories mirror a larger American narrative. The biographies and essays illustrate a diversity among Texas women, reflecting experiences ranging from those of dispossessed enslaved women to wealthy patrons of the arts. That history also captures the ways in which women’s lives reflect both personal autonomy and opportunities to engage in the public sphere.

- Description
- This work revises conventional understandings of what constitutes a doll: broadens the age range to include female adolescents, women and others: locates dolls in untraditional contexts: and utilizes new methodological practices and theoretical frameworks. Placing dolls at the center of analysis reveals how critical girls’ toys are in the making - and undoing - of racial, ethnic, national, religious, sexual, class, and gender ideologies and identities.

- Description
- In de negentiende eeuw kreeg men meer belangstelling voor de binnenlanden van de kolonie. Onder invloed van de Verlichting wilde men vooral kennis vergaren over landen en volken. Door de Romantiek idealiseerde men de 'edele wilde', onaangetast door de westerse beschaving. Dat leidde tot ontdekkingsreizen, die een volkenkundig, botanisch, zoölogisch of geologisch karakter hadden. Door de toegenomen Europeanisering kwamen daar toeristische reizen bij, vooral in de twintigste eeuw. In deze bundel worden drieëntwintig reizigers uit de periode 1800-1950 besproken.Atrikelen over onder meer Nicolette Peronneau van Leyden, Augusta de Wit, Marie van Zeggelen, Aletta Jacobs, Annie Salomons en Beb Vuyk
