Aspasia is an international peer-reviewed yearbook that brings out the best scholarship in the field of interdisciplinary women's and gender history focused on - and produced in - Central, Eastern, and Southeastern Europe. In this region the field of women's and gender history has developed unevenly and has remained only marginally represented in the "international" canon. Through its contributions, Aspasia transforms "European women's history" into more than Western European women's history, as is still often the case, and expands the comparative angle of research on women and gender to all parts of Europe. Each volume of Aspasia contains: (1) an article section that is sometimes thematic; (2) a discussion Forum (whose topic in most cases will be related to that of the central theme of the volume); (3) and book reviews and essays. In keeping with the current scholarly debates, in conversation with scholars from all over the world, Aspasia brings to an international audience innovative research and historical analyses. This important publication not only offers valuable materials for easy integration in the teaching of graduate and undergraduate courses on gender, but also provides up-to-date information and analyses on books that focus on women and gender, in particular those published in the languages of this area, which otherwise rarely receive attention in English-language history publications.
