Initial Efforts of theCurriculum Taskforce

The Curriculum Taskforce is fortunate in having several strongly involved participants: the PreK-12, Lesbian, and Student Caucuses, and the New York and Northwest regions. To date, several of the participants have singled out areas of prime concern to them and are inviting those interested to send materials, ideas, and support.

Teaching About The History Of Women In Western Music, Jane M. Bowers

Women's Studies Quarterly

In the summer of 1976, a course entitled Women Musicians and Composers in Western Europe and the United States between 1100 and the Present was offered by the Women's Studies Certificate Program in collaboration with the Department of Music at Portland State University in Portland, Oregon.* Since this may have been the first course of its kind offered by any college or university, I would like to describe something of its nature, aims, and procedures; list some of the source materials that served both the students and the instructor in preparation of the course; present a selective list of recordings …

Cause for Celebration. Since 1969, the Clearinghouse on Women's Studies has been recording the growth of women's studies programs in colleges and universities. Originally it was a service of the Modern Language Association's Commission on the Status of Women. Then, in 1971, the Clearinghouse became an educational project of The Feminist Press. In both cases, publishing a list of women's studies programs helped students decide where to study and told faculty where they might find jobs. But there was still another reason for publishing such lists: programs like San Diego's and Cornell's (listed in 1970) and San Francisco State's, …

Sugar And Spice: That's What Children's Books Are Still Made Of, Jeanne Bracken, Sharon Wigutoff

Women's Studies Quarterly

In April 1977, at a conference on children's literature at Columbia University, an editor from a commercial publishing house responded to feminist criticism of a book. The editor stated that children's books should be free of "issues" and should not be expected to respond to every "trend" that comes along, such as the women's movement. To reduce the decade-long struggle of the women's movement to the status of a gimmick or a fad was more than merely insulting; it was a comment that ridiculed the committed efforts of feminists to create a literature—and ultimately a society—where children can find role …

Gender Role Of Male Pseudohermaphrodites In The Dominican Republic, Sara V. Mallea

Theses and Dissertations

This study introduces factors in the post-pubertal change of gender role in a group of male pseudohermaphrodites in the Dominican Republic. The individuals grow up as girls because of ambiguous genitalia at birth. Upon the onset of puberty, with development of scrotum and phallus, they generally select adult male models to emulate as their future role behavior. The essay describes the socio-cultural setting in which the children are raised and proposes a theory that differential socialization of boys and girls and adult access to resources are contributing elements in the decisions to switch gender roles. At the time of the …

Women's Studies Quarterly

As we go to press with the first issue of our fifth year, it is with pride in our new format and an apology for being late. Unpredictable circumstances kept us from appearing in December, and one significant decision made us delay until now.

The decision belongs to the new National Women's Studies Association: that the Women's Studies Newsletter become its official disseminator of news and information. Elsewhere in this issue we print the policies established by the Association and accepted by The Feminist Press on behalf of the Newsletter. Here we'd like to talk about our sense of …

Images Of Women In Renaissance Literature: A Selected Bibliography Of Scholarship, Elizabeth H. Hageman

Women's Studies Quarterly

This bibliography offers a representative selection of scholarship on the image of woman in English literature of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. As one would expect, a large percentage of the items listed here were published in the last five or six years, but a surprising number of significant, detailed studies of woman's place in Renaissance society were written in the early decades of this century. Moreover, the 17 studies that I have listed from the 1940s and 195Os are among the most valuable of the items that appear here - both in their scholarly concern for facts and in …

The Women's Caucus For Art, Judith K. Brodsky

Women's Studies Quarterly

The Women's Caucus for Art is a national professional organization of over 1,000 women art historians, artists and curators. Historically speaking, the Caucus is of its time. Women in a number of academic societies have been establishing or have established caucuses in order to bring to bear more concerted action of their societies, chiefly to work against discrimination in the field and on improvement in the curriculum. The history of the Caucus reveals some of the intricate problems facing women in the attempt to gain equal status.

CONSTITUTION OF THE NWSA

Drafted: January 13-16, 1977 at the Founding Convention held at the University of San Francisco.

PREAMBLE

We, the delegates to the first convention of the National Women's Studies Association, have met to found an organization designed to further the social, political, and professional development of women's studies throughout the country, at every educational level and in every educational setting.

Women's studies owes its existence to the movement for the liberation of women; the women's liberation movement exists because women are oppressed. Women's studies, diverse as its components are, has at its best shared a vision of …

Women's Studies In Its Second Phase, Gayle Graham Yates

Women's Studies Quarterly

A personal statement written for tbe program at tbe University of Minnesota and presented at a brown bag lunch.

Women's studies is in its seventh year nationally, its fifth year here, at least under that title. It is appropriate to take stock now and ask why women's studies? What is it about? Where is it going?

Women's studies was born out of the women's movement, is still a child of the women's movement—the academic branch of that family. The women's movement is in what I would now call its fourth phase; women's studies is in a parallel second stage.

Women Historians And Women's History: An Organizational Guide, Arnita Jones

Women's Studies Quarterly

Since the late 1960s an interlocking network of new national, regional and local organizations has furthered the interests of women historians . From the beginning, however, the developing field of women's history has also been a primary concern. The enthusiasm of women historians for women's history has its parallel within other academic disciplines, but the current redefinition of historical inquiry to include such new areas as psycho-history, family history and the history of childhood has provided an unusual opportunity. Perhaps for this reason, perhaps out of frustration about the issue of employment, the history of women has become the major …
