The essays explore the foundations and evolutions of urban fantasy and presentations of gendered identities in a wide variety of sources, focusing not only on popular examples, such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Underworld , but also on less studied works, for instance Penny Dreadful and Anita Blake . The authors address the sociocultural institutions that bind gender to the body and shape our views of gendered norms, inviting students of all experience levels to engage in interdisciplinary conversations about both theoretical and embodied constructions of gender and the production of genre and generic conventions. The text unpacks cultural norms of gender and addresses issues of identity construction within an endlessly evolving genre. This collection demonstrates the way that representations of gender and the kick-ass female urban fantasy warrior have upended and reinforced a broad range of expectations and tropes, making it a fascinating text for any course, such as first-year studies, literature, film, gender studies, sociology, cultural studies, history, and more. 410 0$aTeaching Gender$v10. 606 $aFantasy fiction, American$xHistory and criticism 606 $aFantasy in mass media 606 $aObjectification (Social psychology) in literature 606 $aObjectification (Social psychology) in mass media 606 $aGender identity in literature 606 $aGender identity in mass media 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aFantasy fiction, American$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aFantasy in mass media. 615 0$aObjectification (Social psychology) in literature. 615 0$aObjectification (Social psychology) in mass media. 615 0$aGender identity in literature. 615 0$aGender identity in mass media. 676 $a813.0876609353 702 $aAnyiwo$b U.
