Heya! I have two earlier answers that might be of interest:

• Did the Victorian era distort our view of women in history? What is the history of talking about women in history?
• When did historians first begin to talk seriously about female experiences and the way women's voices have been systematically silenced in history and in academia?

I'd be happy to try to answer any follow-up questions, too!

As a follow-up question, how do historians feel about the term "herstory" rather than "feminine history" to describe history from the perspective of women?

Nota bene: I want to add that I'm not trying to be sarcastic or disrespectful with this follow-up question.
