Zusammenfassung:"The study of gender in past societies has emerged over the last two decades, and has transformed the work of archaeologists. Gender and Archaeology is the first volume to critically review the development of this now crucial topic internationally, across a range of periods and material culture." "Roberta Gilchrist explores the significance of the feminist critique of archaeology and feminist epistemologies. She shows the unique perspective that gender archaeology can bring to bear on issues such as the division of labour and the life course. She examines issues of sexuality, and the embodiment of gender identity. A substantial case study of gender, space and metaphor in the medieval English castle is used to draw together and illustrate these strands."--BOOK JACKET.
