Izzo Donatella (36 results)

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. From Daisy Miller to Isabel Archer to Maisie, female characters dominate the work of Henry James and, often, critical discussion of James's work. Donatella Izzo shifts that discussion to a different, more revealing, plane in this original interpretation of James's short fiction. By redirecting criticism from a biographical emphasis to a focus on James's engagement with the issues of representation, Izzo shows how these short stories actually question and investigate the cultural and ideological practices that produced women, both in literature and in society.øPortraying the Lady brings to light the experimental quality and inherent consistency of stories that have received little critical attention, all of which revolve around ideas at the core of the cultural representation of femininity at the time. Izzo shows how James, by testing and stretching these ideas in his imagery and plots, exposed and exploded the perverse logic and the ultimate implications of such culturally shared versions of femininity, thus revealing their oppressive quality for women and laying bare literature's complicity in reproducing and circulating them. Exposing James's texts as sensitive registers of women's roles during the Victorian-Edwardian era, this book demonstrates that his texts make readers aware of how those stereotypes operated.øBlending literary, art, and feminist criticism with narratological analysis and postmodern theory, this groundbreaking work restores a formal awareness to James studies within the wider theoretical concerns of feminist, gender, and cultural critiques.

Brossura. Condition: nuovo. ISBN 979-12-5613-060-3. Scuola di Pitagora, 2025. Pagine: 352 - Donne sconvenienti e angeli del focolare, donne vittime e donne assassine; artiste e artisti di successo, misconosciuti, decaduti, sullo sfondo di un campo letterario in formazione e della nascente cultura di massa; donne emergenti, in un contesto di trasformazioni ed emancipazioni, e uomini in crisi, che in questo mondo nuovo hanno perso la propria rendita di posizione: è questa la galleria di personaggi che abita i racconti e i romanzi analizzati in questo volume, con strumenti che vanno dai Gender Studies alla sociologia letteraria di Pierre Bourdieu e dai Queer Studies alla Affect Theory.
