Beskrivning

This handbook provides an overview of representations of masculinities in Anglophone literatures worldwide. While Part One provides an introduction to the complexities of exploring masculinities across nations, the next parts revolve around a select number of masculinity-related topics that recur across contemporary Anglophone literatures, ranging from violence(s) to boyhood and fatherhood, to aging, or to alternative models of being a man. Crossing traditional boundaries across different literary genres, the collection analyzes fiction but also poetry, drama, short stories, and film adaptations of literary texts. It also challenges the distinction between high- and low-brow culture by incorporating chapters on hard-boiled fiction or domestic noir. The handbook will be of interest to students and scholars in the fields of gender studies, cultural and literary studies, and postcolonial theory, among others.
