Book Synopsis Fan Fiction Genres by : Julia Elena Goldmann
Download or read book Fan Fiction Genres written by Julia Elena Goldmann and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2022-09-30 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if James T. Kirk and Spock had a baby, left the Enterprise and moved to New Vulcan to live happily ever after? Fan fiction plots like this are a strong testament of fans' endless creativity. Not only do the authors invent their own storylines but they have developed a generic definition of content across fandoms according to the relationship present in the text. Classification is therefore profoundly related to gender and sexuality. Julia Elena Goldmann examines these generic structures and formulaic patterns comparatively in Star Trek and Supernatural fan fiction. She also focuses on the interplay of the concepts of gender, sexuality, relationships and depictions of family in these texts.
Book Synopsis Maternal Fictions by : Indrani Karmakar
Download or read book Maternal Fictions written by Indrani Karmakar and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-05-19 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book constitutes a feminist literary analysis of motherhood as presented in selected Indian women’s fictions across a diverse range of geographical, linguistic, class and caste contexts. Situated at the crossroads of motherhood studies and literary studies, this book offers a rigorous examination of the prosody and politics of motherhood in this corpus. In its five thematically focused chapters, the book scrutinises in depth such key concerns as maternal ambivalence; maternal agency and caste; mother–daughter relationships; motherhood and diaspora; and non-biological motherhood. It attempts to understand the literary ramifications of these issues in order to identify the ways in which fiction writers reconceive of the notion of motherhood and maternal identities from and against multiple perspectives. Another pressing concern is whether these Indian women writers’ visions furnish readers with any different understandings of motherhood as compared to dominant Western feminist discourses. Maternal Fictions advances feminist literary criticism in the specific area of Indian women’s writing and the overarching areas of motherhood and literature by acting as a launchpad into a complex constellation of ideas concerning motherhood. The fictional universe is at once ambivalent, diverse, contingent, grounded in a specific location, and yet well placed to converse with discourses emanating from other times and places.
Book Synopsis Fictions of Adolescent Carnality by : Lydia Kokkola
Download or read book Fictions of Adolescent Carnality written by Lydia Kokkola and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2013-05-03 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fictions of Adolescent Carnality considers one of the most controversial topics related to adolescents: their experience of desire. In fiction for adolescents, carnal desire is variously presented as a source of angst, an overwhelming experience over which one has no control, bestial, disgusting and, just occasionally, a source of pleasure. The on-set of desire, within the Anglophone tradition, has been closely associated with the loss of innocence and the end of childhood. Drawing on a corpus of 200 narratives of adolescent desire, Kokkola examines the connections between sociological accounts of teenagers’ sexual behaviour, adult fears for and about their off-spring and fictional representations of adolescents exploring their sexuality. Taking up topics such as adolescent pregnancy and parenthood, queer sexualities, animal-human connections and sexual abuse, Kokkola provides wide-ranging insights into how Anglophone literature responds to adolescents’ carnal desires, and contributes to on-going debates on the construction of adolescence and the ideology of innocence.

Book Synopsis Pregnancy in Literature and Film by : Parley Ann Boswell
Download or read book Pregnancy in Literature and Film written by Parley Ann Boswell and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-03-13 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This exploration of the ways in which pregnancy affects narrative begins with two canonical American texts, Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter (1848) and Harriet Jacobs's Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl (1861). Relying on such diverse works as Frankenstein, Peyton Place, Beloved, and I Love Lucy, the book chronicles how pregnancy evolves from a conventional plot device into a mature narrative form. Especially in the 20th and 21st centuries, the pregnancy narrative in fiction and film acts as a lightning rod with the power to electrify all genres of fiction and film, from early melodrama (Way Down East) to noir (Leave Her to Heaven); from horror (Rosemary's Baby) to science fiction and dystopia (Alien, The Handmaid's Tale); and from iconic (Lolita) to independent (Juno, Precious). Ultimately, the pregnancy narrative in popular film and fiction provides a remarkably clear lens by which we can gauge how popular American film and fiction express our most profound--and most private--fears, values and hopes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sarah MacKenzie grapples with the consequences of her choices as she tiptoes on the tightrope between loyalty and self-discovery. The lines have been etched in the sand, and Sarah has once again chosen Bruce, this time in a courtroom where the weight of her words could reshape their destiny. In a dramatic twist, she weaves a web of lies to shield her husband, blurring the lines between truth and loyalty. As Sarah takes a stand on the witness stand, her heart aches with the gravity of her decision. Will this sacrifice finally prove to Bruce just how deeply she loves him, or will the specter of forgiveness cast a long shadow over their fragile connection? The intricate dance between devotion and regret begins, and Sarah finds herself caught in the crossfire of her own choices. Yet, as circumstances spiral out of control, the ripples of Sarah's sins extend far beyond the courtroom drama. The fabric of her reality frays, and she is thrust into a series of impossible choices that will reshape the course of her life forever. Will the alliances she forges in the crucible of adversity be the foundation of a stronger, unbreakable bond, or are they threads that will unravel under the strain of hidden truths?
Book Synopsis Shakespeare and Protestant Poetics by : Jason Gleckman
Download or read book Shakespeare and Protestant Poetics written by Jason Gleckman and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the impact of the sixteenth-century Reformation on the plays of William Shakespeare. Taking three fundamental Protestant concerns of the era – (double) predestination, conversion, and free will – it demonstrates how Protestant theologians, in England and elsewhere, re-imagined these longstanding Christian concepts from a specifically Protestant perspective. Shakespeare utilizes these insights to generate his distinctive view of human nature and the relationship between humans and God. Through in-depth readings of the Shakespeare comedies ‘The Merry Wives of Windsor’, ‘Much Ado About Nothing’, ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’, and ‘Twelfth Night’, the romance ‘A Winter’s Tale’, and the tragedies of ‘Macbeth’ and ‘Hamlet’, this book examines the results of almost a century of Protestant thought upon literary art.
Book Synopsis Pregnancy, Risk and Biopolitics by : Lorna Weir
Download or read book Pregnancy, Risk and Biopolitics written by Lorna Weir and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-09-27 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, Euroamerican cultures have considered that human status was conferred at the conclusion to childbirth. However, in contemporary Euroamerican biomedicine, law and politics, the living subject is often claimed to pre-exist birth. In this fascinating book Lorna Weir argues that the displacement of birth as the threshold of the living subject began in the 1950s with the novel concept of ‘perinatal mortality’ referring to death of either the foetus or the newborn just prior to, during or after birth. Weir’s book gives a new feminist approach to pregnancy in advanced modernity focusing on the governance of population. She traces the introduction of the perinatal threshold into child welfare and tort law through expert testimony on foetal risk, sketching the clash at law between the birth and perinatal thresholds of the living subject. Her book makes original empirical and theoretical contributions to the history of the present (Foucauldian research), feminism, and social studies of risk, and she conceptualizes a new historical focus for the history of the present: the threshold of the living subject. Calling attention to the significance of population politics, especially the reduction of infant mortality, for the unsettling of the birth threshold, this book argues that risk techniques are heterogeneous, contested with expertise, and plural in their political effects. Interview research with midwives shows their critical relation to using risk assessment in clinical practice. An original and accessible study, this book will be of great interest to students and researchers across many disciplines.
Download or read book Fairy Tale Queens written by J. Carney and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-09-14 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of today's familiar fairy tales come from the stories of Charles Perrault, the Brothers Grimm, and Hans Christian Andersen, but this innovative study encourages us to explore the marvelous tales of authors from the early modern period Giovanni Straparola, Giambattista Basile, Madame Marie-Catherine D'Aulnoy, and others whose works enrich and expand the canon. As author Jo Eldridge Carney shows, the queen is omnipresent in these stories, as much a hallmark of the genre as other familiar characteristics such as the number three, magical objects, and happy endings. That queens occupy such space in early modern tales is not surprising given the profound influence of so many powerful queens in the political landscapes of early modern England and Europe. Carney makes a powerful argument for the historical relevance of fairy tales and, by exploring the dynamic intersection between fictional and actual queens, shows how history and folk literature mutually enrich our understanding of the period.
