Engaging Feminism: Students Speak Up & Speak Out (Feminist Issues : Practice, Politics, Theory)

By Jean O'Brien

During recent years the field of women's studies has emphasized the growth of new scholarship on women as scholars began to recover women's history, women's literature, and both qualitative and quantitative data about women's lives in disciplines as diverse as classics and psychology, religion and medicine, philosophy and sociology. As a result, argue O'Barr and Wyer in this work, the amount of new material in women's studies is nothing short of staggering. Yet, work that addresses itself to the question of delivering this information in the classroom is scarce. We must begin again to examine our early pedagogical commitments, this time in light of the expectations of 1990s women's studies, students and their campus environment.
