Mavericks and Mavens of Business History: Miriam Beard and Henrietta Larson
讲述了两位被遗忘的女性商业史学者米里亚姆·比尔德和亨丽埃塔·拉森的故事，揭示专业化学科建设中的性别边缘化问题，适合关注商业史、性别与学科发展的读者。
This is the story of two women with differing visions about business who have largely been forgotten. Miriam Beard, the maverick daughter of Progressive reformers Charles and Mary Beard, wrote the first international cultural history of the businessman in 1938. Henrietta M. Larson was Harvard Business School's first lady, the first female faculty member and the first woman to be tenured there. The two women never met or interacted. Yet their lives and histories were entangled when one woman, Henrietta, wrote a critical review about the contributions of the other. This article uses their untold story to trace the contentious process of professionalization that sidelined one maverick outsider and kept a maven insider on the margins of a fledgling discipline she had helped to create. Its significance is to make gender central to the reintegration of business and culture and of women's roles in the historiography of business.
