Vulnerability And Resilience In The Dystopian Fiction Of Manjula Padmanabhan.This Open Access book considers the cultural representation of gender violence, vulnerability and resistance with a focus on the transnational dimension of our contemporary visual and literary cultures in English. Contributors address concepts such as vulnerability, resilience, precarity and resistance in the Anglophone world through an analysis of memoirs, films, TV series, and crime and literary fiction across India, Ireland, Canada, Australia, the US, and the UK. Chapters explore literary and media displays of precarious conditions to examine whether these are exacerbated when intersecting with gender and ethnic identities, thus resulting in structural forms of vulnerability that generate and justify oppression, as well as forms of individual or collective resistance and/or resilience. Substantial insights are drawn from Animal Studies, Critical Race Studies, Human Rights Studies, Post-Humanism and Postcolonialism. This book will be of interest to scholars in Gender Studies, Media Studies, Sociology, Culture, Literature and History.Thinking Gender in Transnational Times,2947-437XSex role in literatureViolence in literatureViolence in popular cultureVulnerability (Personality trait) in literatureWomenViolence againstWomen in literatureWomen in popular cultureSex role in literature.Violence in literature.Violence in popular culture.Vulnerability (Personality trait) in literature.WomenViolence against.Women in literature.Women in popular culture.305.3305.3Romero-Ruiz Maria Isabel1236867Cuder-Domínguez Pilar1236868AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910567788303321Cultural Representations of Gender Vulnerability and Resistance2871613UNINA
