- W1566658531 abstract "My brief was to provide a survey of the range of women's, gender or feminist history currently being published in journals on sexuality. This encompasses an enormous historical, geographical and cultural terrain that ranges from female masculinity in eighteenth-century Britain to cultural anxieties about masturbation in nineteenth-century America; female genital cutting in Africa to Sapphic modernities; from the history of marriage in Europe to the renaissance of lesbianism in early modern England, to note only a small example of the diversity of research being carried out in the broad area of the History of Sexuality. Due to time constraints it isn't possible to delineate the wide-ranging interdisciplinary scholarship encapsulated by this term. Suffice it to say that there are points of overlap as well as significant points of difference in both theory and practice, as there are for instance, between feminist, lesbian and queer approaches to writing social and cultural history. Because my research is in the area of lesbian history I will emphasise the scholarly research and debates that have shaped this field more than others. I will give a general overview of the range of journals that regularly publish historical research on women, gender and sexuality, before turning to discuss the emerging trends in this area. I am more familiar with the scene in international journals and so the bulk of this paper is focused on that market. I touch on the publication of historical research on sexuality in Australia only tangentially. The most obvious difference between these two scholarly spheres is the absence of a journal dedicated to the history of sexuality in Australia. However this does not necessarily imply a lack of interest in these issues as, for example, the October 2005 special issue of Australian Historical Studies on histories of sexualities illustrates. There are several paths to publication open to scholars working in the field of women's history generally, and the history of sexuality specifically. Because of the interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary nature of much scholarly work in this area, scholars tend to have a greater range of journals available to them than those working in other fields. This means their work may find a niche within journals focused on disciplinary or temporal frameworks (for example the Journal of Social History or Victorian Studies), as well as those focused on theoretical or methodological approaches (for example Feminist Studies or Rethinking History). Depending on subject matter or sources, scholars may also be able to situate their work in journals devoted to feminist cultural and literary studies such as Signs: Journal of Women and Culture in Society or Tulsa Studies in Women's Literature both of which have a distinguished history of publishing articles in the history of women and sexuality. Indeed the inaugural issue of Signs published in 1975 included Carroll Smith-Rosenberg's groundbreaking essay, 'The Female World of Love and Ritual' which has profoundly influenced the ways in which scholars think about, and read same-sex desire between women in the nineteenth century. (2) Feminist Studies, the pioneering journal founded in 1972 also has a commendable track record of publishing articles and devoting significant space to debates about historical research on sexuality. As Martha Vicinus noted in the introduction to her 1996 book Lesbian Subjects, all but one of the articles reproduced there had been published in Feminist Studies between 1980 and 1995. (3) In recent years the journal has published articles by Jacqueline Dowd Hall and Laura Doan on the search for the 'tender beginnings' of the emotional life of Southern writer Katherine Du Pre Lumpkin and reading Sapphic modernity respectively. (4) The spring 2006 Feminist Studies is a special issue on sexuality with an article on the phenomenon of the respectable same-sex couple in the History of Sexuality. Possibly the largest category of journals routinely publishing articles on sexuality and gender are women's and feminist history journals such as the Women's History Review, Gender and History and the Journal of Women's History, which have been discussed in detail by Catherine Kevin in this roundtable. …" @default.
