Gender, imperialism and global exchanges
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- Creator

Recovering Spain's feminist tradition
This collection of essays discloses the different ways in which Spanish women writers have described and resisted socially imposed limitations on their gender. The contributions provide a balance between writers well known in Spain and those who have only recently received critical attention, from Santa Teresa de Jesús and Maria de Zayas to Emilia Pardo Bazán and Montserrat Roig. The last three essays in the volume focus on Spain's 'double minorities' : Catalan women writers.- Creator

Texas women
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.- Creator
