Urania, Nos. 127-132 (1938)

Issues of Urania published in 1938, including Nos. 127-128 (Jan-Apr), Nos. 129-130 (May-Aug), and Nos. 131-132 (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 women's magazines, modern science, women's employment and education, femininity in Japan and Turkey, religion and spirituality, and cases of gender affirming surgery, largely for intersex people.
