About this product

Product Information

Spanning more than two hundred years of history, from the eighteenth century to the twenty-first, Sisters or Strangers? explores the complex lives of immigrant, ethnic, and racialized women in Canada. Among the themes examined in this new edition are the intersection of race, crime, and justice, the creation of white settler societies, letters and oral histories, domestic labour, the body, political activism, food studies, gender and ethnic identity, and trauma, violence, and memory. The second edition of this influential essay collection expands its chronological and conceptual scope with fifteen new essays that reflect the latest cutting-edge research in Canadian women's history. Introductions to each thematic section include discussion questions and suggestions for further reading, making the book an even more valuable classroom resource than before.

Reviews
"The volume is appropriate for a core text in seminars in Canadian or comparative immigrant women's history; for women's or immigration history courses; as a supplementary source of readings for courses in Canadian survey, women's, social, and gender history courses, or for multidisciplinary courses in women's and gender studies. The editors express their hope to inspire another generation of historians keen to explore and analyze the histories of immigrant, ethnic, and racialized women in Canada and beyond. Indeed." --Anne Burke, The Prairie Journal of Canadian Literature, "Epp and Iacovetta have assembled a highly original work that will introduce students to much of the exciting new scholarship in the field, while challenging them to think critically and creatively. My own students strongly responded to this collection because they could see their own lives mirrored in its pages." --Barbara Lorenzkowski, Department of History, Concordia University
