Women in Neoliberal Postfeminist Television Drama: Representing Gendered Experiences of the Second World War by Cat MahoneyEnglish | PDF,EPUB | 2019 | 140 Pages | ISBN : 3030304485 | 2.5 MB
“In this insightful book, Cat Mahoney offers a fascinating analysis of contemporary TV dramas such as Home Fires, Land Girls and The Bletchley Circle. Developing the idea that history is told through the preoccupations of the present, she argues compellingly that these are postfeminist dramas which work through troubling ideas about heteronormative romance, domesticity, beauty and whiteness, while reinforcing the idea that feminism as a political movement is not necessary. A bold and original contribution to television studies, gender studies and popular history.”
