International Yearbook of Oral History and Life Stories: Volume IV: Gender and Memory

Bok av Selma Leydesdorff
The theme of Gender and Memory, the shaping of memory by gender, is a fundamental issue which has rarely been studied. How early in childhood do girls and boys reveal differences in memory? How far does the character of memory change as gender roles evolve? This fourth volume in the International Yearbook of Oral History and Life Stories tackles these and other questions about the relationships between gender and memory, with contributions from western and eastern Europe, China, Africa, Australia, the United States and Brazil.
