- Abstract
The Women's Gazette and Weekly News (1888–92), which documented the political work of the Women's Liberal Federation, was one of those periodicals that functioned in the construction of Victorian women's political identities. Eliza Orme (1848–1937) was the second and longest serving of its three editors. This article offers an account of the periodical's inauguration, development, and demise, along with a theoretical reflection on the concept of the periodical as organ. An appendix supplies publication details, including the existence of a previously unknown volume of the Women's Gazette in the Special Collections Library of the University of Oregon.
