Produktbeschreibung
The volume Rethinking Marriage through Gendered Lenses explores how matrimony, both as a social institution and as a private experience, has been portrayed and re imagined across literature, film and theater. By examining narratives by Jane Austen, Adam Mickiewicz, Gustave Flaubert, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Sunetra Gupta, that span from Regency England to modern India, the contributors explore how marriage can simultaneously symbolize personal growth, national identity, social critique and cultural performance. Each chapter investigates gender roles and emphasizes marriage's dual nature as both a reflection of societal norms and a challenge to them. Ultimately, the book offers a timely, cross-cultural critique of the enduring tensions between public expectation and private desire in the context of romantic unions.
