Family Feud; Postscript; Notes; References; IndexDissatisfaction with the present can cause people to gaze nostalgically back to an idealized past; that nostalgia pervades contemporary rhetoric. In lamenting the 'degeneracy' of present-day America, social and literary critics as well as contemporary novelists often choose as their scapegoat the women's movement and its increasing influence. Doane and Hodges show us how these social observers seek to 'reinstate' America and American values in ways that, overtly or covertly, do battle with the feminist movement for control of rhetoric, the power of language.Routledge library editions.Feminist theory.American fiction20th centuryHistory and criticismFeminism and literatureUnited StatesHistory20th centuryWomen and literatureUnited StatesHistory20th centuryPsychological fiction, AmericanHistory and criticismAmerican fictionMale authorsHistory and criticismSex differences (Psychology) in literatureFeminist fictionHistory and criticismNostalgia in literatureFeminists in literatureMisogyny in literatureMen in literatureElectronic books.American fictionHistory and criticism.Feminism and literatureHistoryWomen and literatureHistoryPsychological fiction, AmericanHistory and criticism.American fictionMale authorsHistory and criticism.Sex differences (Psychology) in literature.Feminist fictionHistory and criticism.Nostalgia in literature.Feminists in literature.Misogyny in literature.Men in literature.305.4201813.5409352042813/.54/09352042Doane Janice L.546601Hodges Devon L.1950-932473MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463127803321Nostalgia and sexual difference2098377UNINA
