Abstract

Historian Judith R. Walkowitz, interviewed by Sharon Marcus, talks about how she came to study Victorian prostitution and the evolution of London's Soho neighborhood, her efforts to connect political engagement and scholarship, how the discipline of history has and hasn't changed over the past forty years, the alterity of the past, and her current project on the history of feminism and urban space in 1970s and 1980s London.
