Gender, agency and violence : European perspectives from early modern times to the present day

Gender, Agency and Violence: European Perspectives from Early Modern Times to the Present Day centres on literary, cinematic and artistic male and female perpetrators of violence and their discourses. The fifteen contributions to this volume show how patterns of violent agency can be translated across cultures, while individual articles are focused on the authors' particular fields of expertise. This volume takes an interdisciplinary and cross-European approach - covering French, German, English and Italian case-studies from the sixteenth to the twentieth century and allowing for the exploration of recurrent themes. The contributions also facilitate an insight into how the arts and media respond to historical turning points which, time and again, challenge the link between gender, agency and violence for individuals and society alike.-Publisher description.
