- A history of women in 101 objects / by Hirsch, Annabelle,1986-author.; Updegraff, Eleanor,translator.; translation of:Hirsch, Annabelle.Die dinge. Eine geschichte der frauen in 100 objekten.English.;
Includes bibliographical references.The way we remember the past today remains dishearteningly patriarchal: a place where women have always been oppressed by men, from ancient times to the present day. 'A History of Women in 101 Objects' tells a new story of female history, revealing the evolution of the role women have played in society through the quiet power of their everyday items. Open up this cabinet of curiosities and you'll find objects that have been highly esteemed-even, like the Bayeux tapestry, fought over by nations-and others that are humble and domestic. There are artefacts of women celebrated by history and of women unfairly forgotten by it; examples of female rebellion and of self-revelation; objects that are inspiring, curious, or (like radium-laced chocolate) just fundamentally ill-conceived. Through the variety and nuance in these 101 objects, Annabelle Hirsch has created a new history-teeming, unexpected, witty, and always illuminating. This overdue corrective reveals what a healed femur says about civilization, what men have to fear from hat pins, and it shows that the past has always been as complicated and fascinating as the women that peopled it.
