Cracks in the Pedestal: Ideology and Gender in Hollywood
Published by University of Massachusetts Press, Amherst, MA, 1998
ISBN 10: 1558491201 ISBN 13: 9781558491205
Language: English
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. viii, 262 pages, illustrations; 24 cm. Tight, clean copy. Light edgewear to wraps, age toning. *** "A probing study of Hollywood's response to the rise of feminism in the late twentieth century. This book analyzes the ways in which the American film and television industry--the multifaceted, male-dominated institution known as Hollywood--has responded to the feminist cultural revolution of the past twenty-five years. The focus is on the treatment of those ideals and institutions, especially 'the family,' within which prevailing notions of gender and sexuality are embedded and take on active life. Distinguishing his own neo-Marxist approach from that of other media scholars, Philip Green pursues two interrelated themes. In the first part of the book, he looks at the strategies Hollywood has employed to deflect or absorb the ideological challenges posed by the feminist critique of contemporary American society. He demonstrates the ways in which mainstream movies and television programs, no matter how unconventional or 'subversive' they may appear, produce and reproduce familiar images of sexuality and gender identity. In the second part, Green highlights instances in which reproduction of the dominant ideology is less successful by examining several recent cinematic genres--the female action movie, the rape-revenge cycle, and the new film noir--that portray the real ambiguities of a social order in upheaval. As a male consumer of the cultural commodities being discussed, the author offers a perspective on American films and television different from that of most other feminist critics. / Author of The Pursuit of Inequality and Retrieving Democracy, Philip Green is Sophia Smith Professor of Government at Smith College." - Publisher. Size: 8vo.

Our Fiery Trial: Abraham Lincoln, John Brown, and the Civil War Era.
Published by University of Massachusetts Press, Amherst, MA, 1979
ISBN 10: 0870233971 ISBN 13: 9780870233975
Language: English
Paperback. Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use, but the major flaw here is that the upper corner of the title page has been clipped; else, just a hint of wear to extremities; mildest rubbing. Binding square and secure; text clean. Very close to 'As New'. This is a REMAINDER, showing a small mark and a dot at the bottom edge of the text block. NOT a Book-Club or Ex-Library. 8vo. 150pp. University Press Paperback. Oates provides an overview of the civil war comparable to many other texts but where he earns high praise, is for the two chapters on John Brown. In the literature concerning John Brown, he has been portrayed as either an immortal hero or a psychopathic murderer. Each author found Brown either right or wrong. Oates has maintained sufficient distance to provide perspective. He is an exception in that he examined past works on Brown, providing the arguments for good or bad and then gave the documented facts for the reader to come to their conclusions. Consequently, all former texts had flaws and omissions because authors chose a side of this controversial figure and wrote accordingly. Oates is able to expose what is myth and what is factless opinion. So far in my findings this is the most unbiased look at the life of John Brown. It should be read following a biography on Brown as Oates does not write a life story but rather sifts through the flaws of myths and heroism.
