Ulrich explains how that happened and what it means by looking back at women of the past who challenged the way history was written. She ranges from the fifteenth-century writer Christine de Pizan, who wrote \u003ci\u003eThe Book of the City of Ladies, \u003c\/i\u003e to the twentieth century's Virginia Woolf, author of \u003ci\u003eA Room of One's Own. \u003c\/i\u003eUlrich updates their attempts to reimagine female possibilities and looks at the women who didn't try to make history but did. And she concludes by showing how the 1970s activists who created \"second-wave feminism\" also created a renaissance in the study of history.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLAUREL THATCHER ULRICH\u003c\/b\u003e was born in Sugar City, Idaho.
