Modernism, Sex, and Gender de Professor Celia Marshik

Modernism, Sex, and Gender: New Modernisms

Autor Professor Celia Marshik, Professor Allison Pease
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 oct 2018
Modernism, Sex, and Gender is an up-to-date and in-depth review of how theories of gender and sexuality have shaped the way modernism has been read and interpreted from its inception to the present day. The volume explores four key aspects of modernist literature and criticism that have contributed to the new modernist studies: women's contributions to modernism; masculinities; sexuality; and the intersection of gender and sexuality with politics and law. Including brief case studies of such writers as May Sinclair and Radclyffe Hall, this book is a valuable guide for those looking to understand the history of critical thought on gender and sexuality in modernist studies today.

Recenzii

Modernism, Sex and Gender is a prodigious and inspiring compendium of Modernist Studies on sexuality, masculinities and femininities and politics of identity since the 1970s from a feminist perspective.
Dividing their study into chapters on femininity, sexuality, masculinity, and the law, Marshik and Pease offer not only a history of how these topics evolved in modernist studies but also a handy primer on each topic and a valuable overview of some of the defining texts (complemented by a topical bibliography). In addition, each chapter includes at least one case study tracing the critical trajectory of an author (or authors), demonstrating how changes in modernist studies opened new critical territory for each . Summing Up: Recommended.
This valuable tool, offered in the Bloomsbury "New Modernisms Series," provides a guide to ways that critical studies relating to gender, sex, sexuality, and censorship have shaped our understanding of literary modernism through the decades. Its authors are well qualified for the project, [and] have provided a valuable and extensive bibliography, inclusive of current work. I recommend this study as a source for graduate students and advanced undergraduates, as well as a useful review for established scholars.
A perceptive and intelligently structured analysis of how the narrative of modernist literature changed with the emergence of second-wave feminism, gay and lesbian studies, queer theory, and masculinity studies. It will be particularly useful for students of modernism working within the fields of feminism, gender studies, queer theory, or censorship seeking an overview of the critical landscape. But, as stated above, Marshik and Pease's cogent explanations of the various themes and areas in focus also make the book highly valuable to readers previously unfamiliar with modernism.
One of the greatest achievements of Modernism, Sex, and Gender is its meticulous recording of the conjunction of shifts in modernist as well as feminist criticism, queer theory, and masculinity studies ... [it] represents an excellent, systematic display of scholarship on modernist women and modernist lesbians spanning more than a century.
[This] is a clear and comprehensive guidebook to the scholarly debates concerning the relationships between gender, sexuality, and modernist literature.
Comprehensively documents a number of issues related to gender, sexuality, and feminism ... An ideal textbook.
