Dismembering the Male: Men's Bodies, Britain and the Great War: Men™s Bodies, Britain and the Great War Pb - Brossura
Sinossi
That notions of femininity were seriously disrupted during the First World War has become obvious in recent years. But what happened to masculinity at the same time? Based on letters, diaries and oral histories, "Dismembering the Male" explores the impact of the 'war to end all wars' on the male body. Joanna Bourke argues convincingly that military experiences led to a greater sharing of gender identities between men of different classes and ages. She concludes that attempts to construct a new type of masculinity failed as the threat of another war, and with it the sacrifice of a new generation of men, intensified.

Dismembering the Male (Paperback)
Da: Grand Eagle Retail, Wilmington, DE, U.S.A.
Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. It has been contended that femininity was "disrupted, constructed and reconstructed" during World War I, but what happened to masculinity? Using the evidence of letters, diaries and oral histories of members of the military and of civilians, this book explores the impact of the Great War on the male body. Each chapter offers a detailed examination of a different facet of the war and masculinity, comparing attitudes towards those who were dismembered and disabled by the war with attitudes towards those suffering from diseases such as shell-shock. Joanne Bourke concludes that, although the absence of women encouraged male intimacy, differences of class, religion and ethnicity, together with the constant threat of death, acted as barriers to closeness. Bourke argues that military experiences led to a greater sharing of gender identities between men of different classes and ages, and that, ultimately, attempts to reconstruct a new type of masculinity failed as the threat of another war - and with it the sacrifice of a new generation of men - intensified. Based on letters, diaries and oral histories, this title explores the impact of the 'war to end all wars' on the male body. It argues that military experiences led to a greater sharing of gender identities between men of different classes and ages.
