Spring 2006 Published by Phyllis Holman Weisbard LIBRARIAN Women's Studies Librarian Feminist Periodicals A current listing of contents Volume 25, Number 4 & Volume 26, Number 1 (Winter & Spring 2006) Periodical literature is the cutting edge ofwomen's scholarship, feminist theory, and much ofwomen's culture. Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the University of Wisconsin System Women's Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing public awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' familiarity with a wide spectrum offeminist periodicals; and to provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to subscribe to a journal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of the new copyright law with regard to photocopying of copyrighted materials.) Table of contents pages from current issues of major feministjournals are reproduced in each issueof Feminist Periodicals, preceded by a comprehensive annotated listing of all journals we have selected. As publication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical will have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of FP. The annotated listing provides the following information on each journal: 1. Year of first publication. 2. Frequency of publication.

  • Female Islamic Education Movements
    Female Islamic Education Movements Since the 1970s, movements aimed at giving Muslim women access to the serious study of Islamic texts have emerged across the world. In this book, Masooda Bano argues that the creative spirit that marked the rise and consolidation of Islam, whereby Islam inspired serious intellectual engagement to create optimal societal institutions, can be found within these education movements. Drawing on rich ethnographic material from Pakistan, northern Nigeria and Syria, Bano questions the restricted notion of agency associated with these movements, exploring the educa- tional networks which have attracted educated, professional and cultur- ally progressive Muslim women to textual study, thus helping to reverse the most damaging legacy of colonial rule in Muslim societies: the isolation of modern and Islamic knowledge. With its comparative approach, this book will appeal to those studying and researching the role of women across Africa, the Middle East and South Asia, as well as the wider Muslim world. Masooda Bano is Associate Professor at the Oxford Department of International Development, and Senior Golding Fellow at Brasenose College, University of Oxford. She is the author of The Rational Believer: Choices and Decisions in the Madrasas of Pakistan (2012). “One of the more striking developments in the Muslim world over the past century has been the way in which individuals have, to varying degrees, been taking responsibility for their Islamic understandings. In this important book Masooda Bano explores this process amongst women in three different Muslim societies and concludes with a cautiously optimistic view of the future.” Professor Francis Robinson, Royal Holloway, University of London “Persuasive and clearly written, Female Islamic Education offers stunning insight into why women’s mosque- and home-situated Islamic education and study circles have expanded in scope, impact, and prestige in recent years.
