Tomboys: A Literary and Cultural History

Tomboys: A Literary and Cultural History

by Michelle Ann Abate (Author)

Synopsis

Starting with the figure of the bold, boisterous girl in the mid-19th century and ending with the 'girl power' movement of the 1990's, this title provides a critical study of this gender-bending code of female conduct. It traces the literary and cultural transformations that the concept of 'tomboy' has undergone in the United States.
