Bordering on the Body by Doyle
Laura Anne Doyle argues that many of the major texts of twentieth century literature revolve around concepts embodied in mother figures. By studying key novels of the Harlem Renaissance and Modernism and drawing upon the history of eugenics and anthropology, Doyle shows how mother figures represent boundaries of race and ethnicity.
A useful and important study...Will provide a radical rereading of modernist texts. * Choice *
Laura Doyle teaches modern literature and culutral theory at Harvard University.
