Women, Their Lives, and the Law
Essays in Honour of Rosemary Auchmuty
Edited by Victoria Barnes, Nora Honkala and Sally Wheeler
This collection of essays honours Rosemary Auchmuty, Professor of Law at the University of Reading, UK. She has fostered the study of women’s academic careers and, more politically, advanced progress on gender and equality issues including same-sex marriage and property law. Her research promotes the case of feminist legal history as a way of revealing the place of women and challenging dominant historical narratives that cast them aside.
The chapters, and the collection as a whole, examine areas of law that have a deep significance for women’s lives.
Victoria Barnes is Senior Research Fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Legal History and Legal Theory in Frankfurt, Germany.
Nora Honkala is Lecturer in Law at the University of Reading, UK.
Sally Wheeler is Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Dean of Law at the Australian National University, Australia.
