Making History

Education


Women’s history closely aligns with cultural and social history in its inclusive approach. It emerged alongside the cultural turn in the 1990s as key-defining category of historical inquiry. Women’s history often analyses modes of private vs. public activity amongst women and the ways in which women negotiated gendered assumptions within the historical circles.
