For Sheehan modernism presents a major form of critique of the fundamental presumptions of humanism. By pairing key modernist writers with philosophical critics of the humanist tradition, he shows how modernists sought to discover humanism's inhuman potential. He examines the development of narrative during the modernist period and sets it against, among others, the nineteenth-century philosophical writings of Schopenhauer , Darwin and Nietzsche. Focusing on the major novels and poetics of Conrad, Lawrence, Woolf and Beckett, Sheehan investigates these writers' mistrust of humanist orthodoxy and their consequent transformations and disfigurations of narrative order. He reveals the crucial link between the modernist novel's narrative concerns and its philosophical orientation in a book that will be of compelling interest to scholars of modernism and literary theory.Modernism, Narrative & HumanismEnglish fiction20th centuryHistory and criticismModernism (Literature)Great BritainHumanism in literatureNarration (Rhetoric)English fictionHistory and criticism.Modernism (Literature)Humanism in literature.Narration (Rhetoric)823/.9109112Sheehan Paul1960-1502060UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910780292603321Modernism, narrative, and humanism3821106UNINA04286oam 2200721I 450 991079991270332120230725030603.01-136-88368-11-136-88369-X1-283-04345-997866130434500-203-83930-710.4324/9780203839300 (CKB)2670000000068886(EBL)614980(OCoLC)701703869(SSID)ssj0000474510(PQKBManifestationID)11307281(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000474510(PQKBWorkID)10454071(PQKB)10667749(OCoLC)701718511(MiAaPQ)EBC614980(Au-PeEL)EBL614980(CaPaEBR)ebr10446819(CaONFJC)MIL304345(EXLCZ)99267000000006888620180706d2011 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrWomen and exercise the body, health and consumerism /edited by Eileen Kennedy and Pirkko MarkulaNew York :Routledge,2011.1 online resource (317 p.)Routledge research in sport, culture and society ;5Description based upon print version of record.0-415-81150-3 0-415-87120-4 Includes bibliographical references and index.Book Cover; Title; Copyright; Contents; Acknowledgments; Introduction: Beyond Binaries: Contemporary Approaches to Women and Exercise; Part I: The Business of Exercise: Selling and Consuming Fitness; 1 Love Your Body?: The Discursive Construction of Exercise in Women's Lifestyle and Fitness Magazines; 2 Women Developing and Branding Fitness Products on the Global Market: The Method Putkisto Case; 3 'Folding': A Feminist Intervention in Mindful Fitness; Part II: Body Trouble: Fat Women and Exercise; 4 Fit, Fat and Feminine?: The Stigmatization of Fat Women in Fitness Gyms5 I Am (Not) Big . . .

While exercise promotion has become an increasingly visible part of health campaigns, obesity among women is rising, and studies indicate that women are generally less physically active than men. Women's (lack of) exercise, therefore, has become a public concern, and physiological and psychological research has attempted to develop more effective exercise programs aimed at women. Yet women have a complex relationship with embodiment and physical activity that is difficult for quantitative scientific approaches to explore.Routledge Research in Sport, Culture and SocietyExercise for womenWomen in mass mediaWomenHealth and hygieneExercise for women.Women in mass media.WomenHealth and hygiene.613.7/045613.7045Kennedy Eileen1588344Markula Pirkko1961-1588345MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910799912703321Women and exercise3877835UNINA
