Attentive to the blind spots and complicities of many feminist ventures, she also recognizes its affinities and resonance across generations, geographies, and genders. This brilliant book probes feminism's meanings and materializations through chapters on dreams, feelings, objects, and songs as well as ideas, looks, spaces, and actions."--Nancy A. Hewitt, author of Radical Friend: Amy Kirby Post and Her Activist Worlds "This is an extraordinary and beautiful history of the global struggles against the injustices of gender. It brings the battles of feminists to life, not only through their ideas and campaigns, but also their dreams, songs, anger, and the material dimensions of their activism--their bloomers, badges, and veils, their refuges, workplaces, and borderlands."--Hannah Dawson, King's College London "This outstanding work . . . takes a thematic approach to the topic of global feminist history to provide a unified vision that maintains appropriate nuance. . . . It's masterful."--Jana Byars "New Books in Gender Studies" "Delap's telling is unique amongst histories of feminism. As it tears across the globe, Feminisms reveals familiar organizations, projects, agitators, and obstacles in new garb and places them alongside ones conventionally overlooked. Start with any chapter and savor every generous, undogmatic page."--Bonnie G. Smith, Board of Governors Distinguished Professor Emerita of History, Rutgers University
