She focuses on live comedy that is explicitly feminist to consider how social attitudes to women, the increasing visibility of female labour outside the home, and the emergence of multiple (and sometimes contradictory) feminisms has influenced the comedy produced by women comedians in 21st century Britain."-- back cover 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 236-252) and index. 650 0 $a Stand-up comedy $z Great Britain. 650 0 $a Women comedians $z Great Britain. 650 0 $a Feminism $z Great Britain. 650 7 $a Feminism $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922671 650 7 $a Stand-up comedy $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01131440 650 7 $a Women comedians $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177507 651 7 $a Great Britain $2 fast $1 https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJdmp7p3cx8hpmJ8HvmTpP $0 (OCoLC)fst01204623 776 08 $i Online version: $a Tomsett, Ellie. $t Stand-up comedy and contemporary feminisms. $d London ; New York, NY : Bloomsbury Academic, 2023 $z 1350302309 $w (OCoLC)1376932808 830 0 $a Library of gender and popular culture 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240619012625.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5D61A4402E0111EFA856D47D28ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
