ABSTRACT
This chapter situates a discussion of intersectional feminist methodology within the field of historical research. It is argued that feminism, particularly intersectional feminism, is important in shifting both the focus of historical work and our wider understanding of the role of the historian and their interpretation of the past. The chapter examines how intersectional feminism shapes the stories that we want to tell as historians, mediates our relationship to the archive, and creates the impetus to develop networks of support and enquiry. It ends with a call to continue fighting for the role of intersectional feminism and feminists within the historical academy.
