ENGL 2923 Beyond Bella: 21st Century Girls’ Adventure


(3 hours) Block One CDGS
A study of novels, TV shows, films, and comic books from the late 1990’s through the present day as they feature girls within the context of adventure. Looking at precursors such as Nancy Drew and reading these texts against the background of women’s movement, this course asks how these contemporary texts break with or reinforce gender stereotypes, adapting traditional her narratives to female characters or telling new stories about women. Same as WS 2923 .
