Produktbeschreibung
The work is an analysis of the novels The Robber Bride, Alias Grace, The Blind Assassin, Oryx and Crake and The Penelopiad by Margaret Atwood from the perspective of gender. It discusses that spaces and places -public and private, domestic and professional- and our perception of them, are gendered in umpteen different ways, which vary between cultures and over time. And this gendering of space and place both influences and affects the ways gender is constructed and understood in the societies in which we live. The book investigates that not only gender but sex too is discursively constituted in society and culture. This understanding leads to the subversion and deconstruction of gender identity and gendered spaces in the selected novels.
