Urania, Nos. 139-142 (1940)

Issues of Urania published in 1940, including Nos. 139-140 (Jan-Apr) and Nos. 141-142 (May-Aug). 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 political philosophies, women's employment in Japan, women's political service in Great Britain, intersex people, and gender-affirming surgery. These issues conclude the journal's run.
