Issues of Urania published in 1936, including Nos. 115-116 (Jan-Apr), Nos. 117-118 (May-Aug), and Nos. 119-120 (Sep-Dec). Urania was a privately circulated feminist journal published in England from 1916-1940. The journal's foundational philosophy revolved around the abolition of gender, as the founders believed true feminist liberation could not be realized within a binary gender system.

These issues contain discussions of gender affirming surgery, marriage, women's employment, the possibility of allowing women into the Christian ministry, femininity in Japan, and letters to the editor of a newspaper which declared men the "superior sex."
