The Work of Feminist History

Ann Curthoys explores the intricate relationship between feminism and historical research through her personal experiences as a feminist historian. The discussion revolves around several projects, including the Wadjemup/Rottnest Island project, which examines the complexities of gender relations and historical narratives involving Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal women. The paper emphasizes the importance of intersectionality in feminist history, the examination of domestic violence across different historical eras, and the impactful visit of the Robesons to Australia and New Zealand, all while highlighting the vital contributions of women and the connections between public actions and private experiences.
