The Graduate History Review, ed. by Jamey Jesperson and Chris Aino Pihlak, Univ. of Victoria (Web)
The new issue of „Graduate History Review“ is entiteled „Trans Histories by Trans Historians“. Following trans feminine medievalist Gabrielle M. W. Bychowski, the co-editors consider each of the contributors to this special issue to be taking their rightful „transgender turn“ in response to scholarship that has often failed to see the minutiae of trans life. Emotive, material stakes drive trans historians to create works by, for, and about the communities. For the co-editors the creation of trans-centered scholarship is a duty to past, present, and future trans people whose stories would remain untold otherwise. The co-editors hope that this publication takes a necessary step in filling in the ever-important and lively trans historiography from a trans point of view. The journal is available in full open access.
