Description - Gender Relations In German History by Lynn Abrams
This collection of essays examines the construction of gender norms in early modern and modern Germany. The modes of reinforcement by the state, the church, the law and marriage, and the resistance to these norms by individuals, are central to each of the contributions. It examines discourses of the body and sexuality and the relations between gender and power. Similarly, the usefulness of the "public/private paradigm" familiar to gender historians is further challenged.
