- Synopsis
- In this timely, provocative and lively book, Sara Mills opens up the study of style to feminist inquiry. Combining insights from literary and linguistic theory, she provides a rationale for the interrogation of texts from a feminist perspective. Through an examination of both literary and non-literary texts, including pop songs, newspaper advertisements, jokes and pulp fiction, Mills examines such issues as sexism, political correctness, agency and meaning. While there have been numerous books on both feminist literary theory and on feminist linguistic analysis, this is the first skills-enabling approach to the theory and practice of feminist stylistics. The author provides a tool-kit with which to expose the gender bias of both canonical and popular texts. _
