William Inge and the Subversion of Gender : Rewriting Stereotypes in the Plays, Novels, and Screenplays Paperback / softback
by Jeff Johnson
Paperback / softback
Description
This close study of Inge's work focuses particularly on his technique of ""gendermandering,"" patterns of gender-role reversals which Inge exploits not only for dramatic effect but also to subvert social expectations.
Fully considered are stereotypes and established gender roles, especially as they were reinforced socially during the 1940s and 1950s.
The author concentrates largely on material that is strictly Inge's, not adaptations or collaborations, and on work that has been published and is readily available to the general public.
