Beschreibung:
How do boundaries of nation, language, memory, and time operate as researchers write the lost history of women? Why and how are subjects chosen, and how do subjects choose writers? What sorts of privilege does the English language give to native speakers on the global stage? Why have I chosen two subjects who spoke Finnish and Hungarian, two of the least known and difficult to learn languages for speakers of English? While trying to answer these questions, I will intersperse a ‘shadow narrative’ of my own borderland crossings into the narrative of one of ‘my’ international border-crossers in the interwar period, Rosika Schwimmer (1877–1948) of Hungary and the United States.
