“What brought us to write this synthesis of the history of the women who have lived in Quebec during the past four centuries was our unwillingness to let the history of men and a few illustrious women be passed off as the collective history of a whole population. Women had also made history. We had to find them, to find out where and why they were overshadowed”. -- The Clio Collective.
