Challenges art history from a feminist perspective. Following their "Feminism and Art History: Questioning the Litany" (1982) and "The Expanding Discourse: Feminism and Art History" (1992), this volume identifies female agency as a central theme of feminist scholarship. It also features essays on artists and issues from the Renaissance onwards.
"Extremely stimulating and useful. The authors lay out a strategy for future art historians and theorists."-Paula Harper, University of Miami
"I found the individual essays fascinating. . . . Broude and Garrard's introduction . . . helped clarify for me the current state of the affairs in feminist art history; their approach is both inspired and inspiring."- Sue Taylor, Associate Professor of Art History, Portland State University
