Indiana University Press, Jan 1, 1996 - Social Science - 273 pages

"... offer[s] a wealth of information on lesbian and women’s history while providing a comprehensive look at a field of scholarship that is certain to continue to grow in influence." —Sojourner: The Women’s Forum

The lesbian is now an accepted subject for scrutiny—she exists, but how do we define her history, whom do we include, and when did it begin? These essays, primarily drawn from Feminist Studies from 1980 to 1993, trace lesbian studies from its beginnings, examining the difficulties of defining a lesbian perspective and a lesbian past—a culture, social milieux, state of mind.
