This article explores the role of news and short unsigned articles published in the magazine Žena (‘The Woman’) in the period 1911–1914, with a particular emphasis on the magazine’s permanent section ‘Various Notes’, which consisted of news about the various aspects of women’s lives and work. The magazine was owned and edited by Milica Tomić, the first Serbian woman to work as editor-in-chief. The group of women gathered around the magazine Žena used the unsigned section to shed light on the events and struggles which they considered significant, such as women’s suffrage, but could not advocate as their primary goal because of the restrictions posed by the patriarchal and traditional society in which they lived and worked. Thus, transnational aspect of the magazine Žena, conveyed in the news from abroad, enabled the editor and contributors to sometimes express more emancipatory and subversive ideas than they did in the articles which they themselves signed.
