      Acknowledgments

      Each book that I have written has encouraged me to range wider chronologically and geographically from my original home base in early modern Germany, which has meant that I have entered territories in which I know less and less. Fortunately I have found my scholarly colleagues to be uniformly gracious in sharing their expertise, providing assistance and advice, often in the process turning from colleagues to friends. For this book I would like to thank Constantin Fasolt, who asked me to write the first edition, Tessa Harvey, the development editor at Wiley-Blackwell in the 2000s, who encouraged its progress and suggested I write a second edition, and Jennifer Manias, Sophie Bradwell, and Andrew Minton at Wiley-Blackwell, with whom I worked on this third edition. My graduate student Brice Smith combed the library and the web for new materials as I set out to write the second edition; the results of his labors, along with many original sources, can be found on the instructor companion website. My thoughts on the issues discussed here have been influenced over the years by a great many people; my list could go on for pages, but I would particularly like to thank: Barbara Andaya, Judith Bennett, Jodi Bilinkoff, Renate Bridenthal, David Christian, Elizabeth Cohen, Natalie Zemon Davis, Mary Delgado, Lisa DiCaprio, Candice Goucher, Anne Hansen, Scott Hendrix, Evelyn Brooks Higginbotham, Marnie Hughes-Warrington, Grethe Jacobsen, Margaret Jolly, Susan Karant-Nunn, Deirdre Keenan, Gwynne Kennedy, Susan Kingsley Kent, JoAnn McNamara, Teresa Meade, Jeffrey Merrick, Pavla Miller, Laura Mitchell, Susanne Mrozik, Mary Elizabeth Perry, Allyson Poska, Diana Robin, Lyndal Roper, Ulinka Rublack, Anne Schutte, Bonnie Smith, Hilda Smith, Ulrike Strasser, Susan Stuard, Larissa Taylor, Gerhild Scholz Williams, and Heide Wunder.

      CHAPTER ONE

      Introduction

      The title of this book would have made little sense to me when I chose to be a history major nearly five decades ago. I might perhaps have thought it an analysis of linguistic developments, as gender was something I considered (and bemoaned) largely when learning German nouns. The women’s movement changed that, as it changed so much else. The feminist movement that began in the 1960s – often termed the “second wave” to set it apart from the “first wave” of feminism that began in the nineteenth century – included a wide range of political beliefs, with various groups working for a broad spectrum of goals, one of which was to understand more about the lives of women in the past. This paralleled a similar rise of interest in women’s history that accompanied the first wave of feminism.
