Summary

Bonnie G. Smith: The gender of history: men, women, and historical practice

In this ground-breaking study of the gendering of historical practice, Bonnie Smith brings to life the amateur history written by women in the nineteenth century—the kind of history that "scientific" male historians condemned as trivial. It shows the extent to which the profession was defined in opposition to amateurism, femininity and alternative ways of writing history. Male historians from archives and seminars claimed to be searching for a "genderless universal truth," which in reality privileged the history of men over women, the history of whites over non-whites, and the political history of Western governments over any other. Meanwhile, female amateurs wrote vivid histories of queens and successful women, of manners and customs, and of everyday life.
