商品簡介
Nelson (archaeology, U. of Denver) offers an overview of the growth of feminist archaeology and explores some of the major themes to which it has given rise in recent years. She first outlines the theoretical perspective of feminist archaeology before turning her attention in subsequent chapters to such questions as gendered divisions of labor, the role of gender in social systems and organization, the role of women in the public sphere, and women and ideology. The majority of the illustrative examples are drawn from prehistoric archaeology. Annotation c2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
