What does it mean to \"become woman\" in the context of neoliberalism and postfeminism? What is the role of will in this process? Willful Girls explores these questions through an analysis of the depiction of girls and youngwomen in contemporary Anglo-American and German literary texts. It identifies four sets of concerns that are vital for an understanding of gendered subject formation in the contemporary context: agency and volition; body and beauty; sisterhood and identification; and sex and desire. The book examines numerous nonfiction feminist texts as well as novels by Helene Hegemann, Caitlin Moran, Charlotte Roche, Emma Jane Unsworth, Kate Zambreno, and Juli Zeh, among others. These texts illustrate the complex processes by which female subjects become women today. Failure, refusal, disgust, and anger are striking features of these becomings.    Drawing on the work of Sara Ahmed (Willful Subjects) and thinkers including Simone de Beauvoir, Rosi Braidotti, and Elizabeth Grosz, the book demonstrates the significance of willfulness for understandings and assertions of female agency. In addition, it proposesa view of literary works themselves as instances of willfulness. The book will be of interest to scholars working in comparative literature, English, German studies, and feminist, gender, and queer studies.    Emily Jeremiah is Senior Lecturer in German and Gender Studies at Royal Holloway, University of London.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50445269467409,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50445269958929,"sku":"GOR012434569","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52345676300561,"sku":"NLS9781640140080","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1640140085.jpg?v=1750896403"},{"product_id":"womens-narratives-of-ageing-and-care-book-emily-jeremiah-9783111042763","title":"Women’s Narratives of Ageing and Care","description":"Care is fundamental to human survival, yet it is often overlooked, undermined, undervalued, and thought of as ‘women’s work’. Care of the old is particularly low in status and is too readily occluded. This volume asks why and how cultures of care for older people are negatively configured. It examines some of the powerful responses to relationships of intergenerational care in recent creative works by women. It thereby contributes to the contemporary imperative to transform care by investigating some of the ways in which care might be redefined and reconceptualized. Taking as its focus the representation or narrativization of care in theory, literature, visual culture, and performance, it engages with contemporary female-authored works from diverse cultural contexts, encouraging the development of comparative, cross-cultural perspectives. Narrative is key here, for it is in stories about ageing and care that the complexities and ambiguities of care relationships are made available, and that simplified ideas about them are challenged. This volume will be of interest to scholars in literary and cultural studies, gender studies, critical age studies, the medical and health humanities, and all who are interested in care.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51680120930577,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51680121127185,"sku":"NIN9783111042763","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3111042766.jpg?v=1751189354"},{"product_id":"edinburgh-german-yearbook-7-book-emily-jeremiah-9781571135506","title":"Edinburgh German Yearbook 7","description":"Building on a long tradition in German-language literature and culture, this volume focuses on contemporary engagements with ethical concerns in literary texts, essays, and films.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52455848313105,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52455848804625,"sku":"NLS9781571135506","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781571135506.jpg?v=1759375524"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/author-books-by-emily-jeremiah.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
