Description

Explore the evolution of female identity through this scholarly study by Routledge. This book examines how women are represented in eighteenth and nineteenth century literature and how these themes appear in modern media. By looking at contemporary rewritings in novels, films, television, video games, and graphic novels, the text connects historical narratives with modern storytelling. The volume provides a unique look at four specific liminal identities: vampires, prostitutes, quixotes, and detectives. These figures represent new women who live on the margins of society and shape the narratives around them. For the first time, these four identities are studied together in a single collection. This diachronic study covers a wide corpus spanning four centuries and multiple countries. It offers a deep look at how the concept of liminality has changed over time. This is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in historical literature and its influence on current cultural representations.
