The male body at war : American masculinity during World War II
cop. 2004
Jarvis explores the role of World War II in the shift from the troubled representations of masculinity in America during the Depression to the hyper masculinity during the 1950s. Among the questions she addresses is how such extreme masculine ideals could be maintained in the face of the hundreds of thousands of wounded and damaged bodies. Lit. opg.: p. 219-234.-Met reg. XIII, 243 p. : ill. ; 24 cm
