...feminist historian... It IS worth considering that one should NOT use a political framework to do good scholarship. Its ok to bring a womans sensibility into the work. BUT, to be a "feminist" is to bring gender politics into scholarship. ...thats wrong. Because it is biased. To be a good scholar, one puts the work up front and the findings are carefully framed so as to represent themselves, and not somone's politicized view of them.
