The works of Charlotte, Emily and Anne remain immensely popular, and are increasingly being studied in relation to the surroundings and wider context that formed them. The forty-two new essays in this book tell 'the Bronte? story' as it has never been told before, drawing on the latest research and the best available scholarship while offering new perspectives on the writings of the sisters. A section on Bronte? criticism traces their reception to the present day. The works of the sisters are explored in the context of social, political and cultural developments in early-nineteenth-century Britain, with attention given to religion, education, art, print culture, agriculture, law and medicine. Crammed with information, The Bronte?s in Context shows how the Bronte?s' fiction interacts with the spirit of the time, suggesting reasons for its enduring fascination. 410 0$aLiterature in context. 606 $aAuthors, English$y19th century$vBiography 606 $aEnglish literature$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aAuthors, English 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a823/.809 702 $aThorma?hlen$b Marianne$f1949- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452992603321 996 $aThe Bronte?s in context$92475427 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05998nam 22007335 450 001 9910298084803321 005 20251117074553.0 010 $a1-4939-0314-4 024 7 $a10.1007/978-1-4939-0314-6 035 $a(CKB)3710000000093410 035 $a(EBL)1782007 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001185827 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11746034 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001185827 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11217629 035 $a(PQKB)11148675 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1782007 035 $a(DE-He213)978-1-4939-0314-6 035 $a(PPN)177824115 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000093410 100 $a20140307d2014 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aEvolutionary Perspectives on Human Sexual Psychology and Behavior /$fedited by Viviana A.

Yet no matter how intricate the issues and concepts become, we are still able to find valuable clues in our ancestral legacy.  Evolutionary Perspectives on Human Sexual Psychology and Behavior offers a wealth of current theories and findings on the complex psychological adaptations that drive our strategies for selecting and retaining a partner. Groundbreaking studies examine sex differences and similarities in sex-related human behavior while providing object lessons in how evolutionary psychology is practiced and where the field is heading. Contributors present intriguing evidence for mate selection influencing the evolution of men's and women's voices, female orgasm, and men's use of humor, and explore emerging areas of evolutionary interest such as same-sex attraction. This interdisciplinary coverage has wide-ranging implications for sexual well-being as well as mental and general health. Among the featured topics:  Evaluating evidence of mate preference adaptations: how do we really know what Homo sapiens sapiens really want? Sexual adaptation and sexual offending. (Mis)reading the signs: men?s perception of women?s sexual interest. Female perceptions of male body movements. Intrasexual competition and other theories of eating restriction. Social selection and the evolution of competition among women. Evolutionary Perspectives on Human Sexual Psychology and Behavior will appeal to evolutionary scientists across different disciplines of the academy among faculty, graduate students, and undergraduate students interested in sexuality. This volume makes a useful supplementary text in various upper-level undergraduate courses and in graduate courses that address sexuality. 410 0$aEvolutionary Psychology,$x2197-9898 606 $aSexual behavior 606 $aSex (Psychology) 606 $aSex (Psychology) 606 $aGender expression 606 $aExperiential research 606 $aSexual Behavior$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20080 606 $aGender Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20090 606 $aPsychology Research$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20000 615 0$aSexual behavior. 615 0$aSex (Psychology) 615 0$aSex (Psychology) 615 0$aGender expression. 615 0$aExperiential research. 615 14$aSexual Behavior. 615 24$aGender Studies. 615 24$aPsychology Research. 676 $a155.3 702 $aWeekes-Shackelford$b Viviana A.$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aShackelford$b Todd K$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298084803321 996 $aEvolutionary Perspectives on Human Sexual Psychology and Behavior$92185865 997 $aUNINA
