This article presents two case studies, which are the result of the application of a gendered interpretative tool to the collections at the Victoria & Albert Museum (London) and the Vasa Museum (Stockholm). Objects and their gendered narratives within the museums’ collections were researched across their lifecycle, from commission and manufacture t...

... male fashion to female wardrobes thus had two explanations. First, highstatus women adopted male fashions to show their importance and probably had more freedom to experiment with fashion. Wearing men's attributes could threaten their femininity, but their economic and social status gave them more space to challenge the gender division in fashion (Fig. 3). The other explanation is functional-that elite women started to adopt male interests, creating a need for more functional clothes. An intersectional perspective reveals that class and gender interact and can explain how fashion ...

... Another aspect highlighted in previous research is that norms are different for men and women; men are often seen as autonomous whereas women are understood in relation to men and family, without the same agency as men (Bareket et al., 2018;Christianson et al., 2021;Conrad, 2006;Cruz, 2021;Kahalon et al., 2019;Sultana, 2012). Previous research within the field of history education concerning gender and sexuality suggests that similar constructions of patriarchy and views of roles for men and women are present (Axelsson, 2012;Boyd, 2019;Chiponda and Wassermann, 2011;Daybell et al., 2020;Fine-Meyer and Llewellyn, 2018;Frederickson, 2004;Levstik, 2015;Smith Crocco, 2018). ...

Abstract A challenge for history education in Sweden involves integrating questions regarding relationships and sex education. The purpose of this article is to explore how students and teachers relate historical narratives about women's sexuality between the past and present, with a particular focus on students' discussion of shame. To analyse shame as something beyond the individual, we focus on the interrelationship of gender, sexuality and shame. The study builds on a poststructural understanding of gender, norms, sexuality and subjectification. The data comprise video-recorded classroom observations, focus group interviews with 16-19-year-old students, and interviews with their teachers. The findings are structured into two themes: shame as regulating women's sexuality, and sexualised shame as a historical continuity. We conclude that it is highly challenging for a history teacher to construe a classroom environment that breaks with traditional History Education Research Journal https://doi.org/10.14324/HERJ.21.1.07 'Shameful histories'-shame and sex perceived by secondary school students in history education 2 historiography without resorting to a fragmentation of history into isolated case studies of the spectacular.
... Respecto del análisis e interpretación de las colecciones desde la perspectiva de género, Cuesta y Liliane (2020) distinguen dos tipos de estrategias, según: cuantitativa, sobre la prevalencia de los temas de mujeres, de obras de mujeres, y la ley de paridad, el estudio internacional comparado para la universalización de este problema (Assanova y Zhanguttin, 2020), entre otros; y cualitativa, permitiendo el cuestionamiento de los discursos y práctica del museo. En este último sentido, visibilizar el impacto de las mujeres en las narrativas de la historia es un tema destacado: en relación a objetos que fueron producidos por mujeres (Daybell, Heyam, Norrhem y Severinsson, 2020), la sobrerrepresentación del rol de mujeres en determinados ámbitos, como el trabajo de Heitman (2017) sobre las mujeres arqueólogas en la 1ª mitad del siglo XX. ...
Este trabajo aborda una revisión del tema de la musealización del arte y la historia en exposiciones y museos. Se ha realizado una revisión bibliográfica sistematizada basada en publicaciones de revistas científicas internacionales indexadas en los tres primeros cuartiles del SJR, del periodo de 2015 a 2021. La muestra comprende 267 artículos. Se han abordado dos niveles de análisis: descriptivo, basado en variables independientes del año de publicación, nombre de las revistas, índice de indexación, editorial, lugar de publicación y autoría; e interpretativo, basado en variables dependientes de los temas y contenidos de la muestra. Se han utilizado dos técnicas de análisis cualitativo: de clasificación y reducción de datos por codificación, y análisis de contenidos, utilizando la herramienta informática de Atlas.ti 8. En los resultados se muestran las características descriptivas de los artículos analizados, según variables independientes, y los resultados de temas y contenidos principales (comunicación, inclusión, TIC y participación). La discusión de los resultados y conclusiones abordan una revisión crítica sobre las características de cada tema y aportan información sobre los retos futuros para la musealización del arte y la historia en exposiciones y museos. ____________CÓMO CITAR: Tirado-de la Chica, A (2021).

This paper explores the agentic capacities of inanimate objects and their role in shaping the affective atmospheres of women's markets in a post-conflict setting. To analyse this material affectivity, I draw on women's markets of Swat in Pakistan and the role of four selected objects including posters/notices, bras, mannequins and curtains in the generation, transmission and manipulation of affect. I ask, how objects matter in shaping the affectivity of women's markets during and after Swat's conflict? To answer this question, I draw on 36 semi-structured interviews with men traders ( N = 18) and women customers ( N = 18) along with my field notes. I found that centring our analyses upon gendered materiality of mundane objects allow us to capture nuances of unruly capacities and gendered affectivities of objects in the context of war and post-conflict environments. Moreover, my findings suggest that focussing on agentic capacities of objects enhance our understanding of the affective materiality of women's markets in the post-conflict setting.
