Abstract

Girls, gender and identity in comics. Sugar, Spice, and the Not So Nice offers an innovative, wide-ranging and geographically diverse book-length treatment of girlhood in comics. The various contributing authors and artists provide novel insights into established themes within comics studies, children's comics, graphic medicine and comics by and about refugees and marginalised ethnic or cultural groups. The book enriches traditional historical, narratological and aesthetic approaches to studying girlhood in comics with practice-based research, discussion and conversation. This re-examination of girls, gender and identity in comics connects with contemporary discourse on gender identity politics. Through examples from both within Europe, the anglophone world and beyond, and including visual essays alongside critical theory, the volume furthermore engages with new developments in contemporary comics scholarship. It will therefore appeal to students and scholars of childhood studies, comics scholars and creators, and those interested in addressing gender identity through the prism of comics.

Abstract

Comment les auteurs pour la jeunesse vivent-ils l'ascension « des filles » ? Le statut des filles est-il vraiment en train de changer ? Qui sont ces héroïnes, ces petites filles à qui l'on confie la lourde tâche de changer la face du monde ? Sont-elles si différentes de celles qui se rêvaient Cendrillon ou Blanche Neige ? À partir de quelques exemples tirés de P. Pullman et de L. Lowry, l'auteur analyse cette nouvelle conception de la féminité partagée entre mission de salut du monde et refus de la maternité.

Abstract

This book aims to expose a panchronic outlook on motivation behind the word within the paradigm of cognitive linguistics. On the example of girl and woman used in "Dubliners", the author emphasises the impact of culture on human conceptualisation which, in turn, can be traced in language. The results of her analysis reveal that the linguistic sign is not an arbitrary pairing of form and meaning, but rather a language unit motivated by culture.This book will be of interest to those who wish to look more closely at the relationship between language, culture and human mind. Readers interested in Joyce will also find a great dose of cultural and biographical facts related to his life as well as his vision of females as conceptualised in "Dubliners".
