Description:
Gainesville, Florida, U.S.A.: Univ Pr of Florida, 2008. 261pp. He focuses on the way some early twentieth-century writers portray masculinity as theatrical performance, and examines why scholars have generally overlooked that fact. Strychacz argues that writers such as Conrad, Hemingway, and Lawrence?often viewed as misogynist?actually represented masculinity in their works in terms of theatrical and rhetorical performances. They are theatrical in the sense that male characters keep staging themselves in competitive displays; rhetorical in the sense that these characters, and the very narrative form of the works in which they appear, render masculinity a kind of persuasive argument readers can and should debate. Clean. 1st Printing. Cloth. As New/No Jacket - Issued. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
