GWonline: The Bibliography, Filmography and Webography on Gender and War since 1600

GWonline, the Bibliography, Filmography and Webography on Gender and War since 1600

collects and organizes secondary literature, women’s autobiographies, films and  websites with primary documents on the subject of gender, military and war to make them available to the public. Alongside full text searching, it allows users to explore the collection through multiple entry points: author or director, publication or release date, collection, major wars, countries and regions or keywords. With its more than 10.000 carefully curated entries  it aims to be a useful resource that informs students, teachers and researchers. GWonline is connected to The Oxford Handbook of Gender, War, and the Western World since 1600, edited by Karen Hagemann, Stefan Dudink and Sonya A. Rose (Oxford University Press, 2020). It also allows a literature search by Handbook chapters.

To learn more about the way GWonline works please use the brief video guide  created by the student team. The students also  developed a GWonline Facebook site on which they publish their recommendations of books and movies on the subject of gender and war.

Our newest addition, GWonline Learning & Teaching, provides students, high school teachers and college instructors with suggestions of selected material  (literature, websites with maps, timelines and primary sources, autobiographies, films) for the studying and teaching of seven major conflicts in modern global history. In addition, GWonline Learning & Teaching offers a Syllabus Collection for instructors.
