Urania, Nos. 61-64 (1927)

Issues of Urania published in 1927, including Nos. 61-62 (Jan-Apr) and Nos. 63-64 (May-Aug 1927). 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 suffrage, involvement in politics, and financial independence, with a brief discussion of a person who ran away from home and was discovered after presenting as female.
