Supplementing her previous work in the linguistic turn, Trites employs methodologies from the material turn to demonstrate how feminist thinking has influenced literature for the young in the last two decades. She interrogates how material feminism can expand our understanding of maturation and gender--especially girlhood--as represented in narratives for preadolescents and adolescents. Twenty-First-Century Feminisms in Children's and Adolescent Literature applies principles behind material feminisms, such as ecofeminism, intersectionality, and the ethics of care, to analyze important feminist thinking that permeates twenty-first-century publishing for youth. The structure moves from examinations of the individual to examinations of the individual in social, environmental, and interpersonal contexts. The book deploys ecofeminism and the posthuman to investigate how embodied individuals interact with the environment and via the extension of feministic ethics how people interact with each other romantically and sexually. Throughout the book, Trites explores issues of identity, gender, race, class, age, and sexuality in a wide range of literature for young readers, such as Kate DiCamillo's Flora and Ulysses, Jacqueline Woodson's Brown Girl Dreaming, and Rainbow Rowell's Eleanor & Park. She demonstrates how shifting cultural perceptions of feminism affect what is happening both in publishing for the young and in the academic study of literature for children and adolescents."-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Children's stories, American $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Young adult fiction, American $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Feminism and literature. 650 0 $a Feminism in literature. 650 0 $a Feminists in literature. 650 0 $a Girls in literature. 650 0 $a Sex role in literature. 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM $x Children's Literature. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE $x Feminism & Feminist Theory. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE $x Children's Studies. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Children's stories, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00856654 650 7 $a Feminism and literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922735 650 7 $a Feminism in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922752 650 7 $a Feminists in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922839 650 7 $a Girls in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00942914 650 7 $a Sex role in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114649 650 7 $a Young adult fiction, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01183089 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 $i Online version: $a Trites, Roberta Seelinger, 1962- $t Twenty-first-century feminisms in children's and adolescent literature. $d Jackson : University Press of Mississippi, [2018] $z 9781496813817 $w (DLC) 2017042739 830 0 $a Children's literature association series. 941 $a 3 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718093014.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20181116060013.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20180403021722.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E032BBDE370411E887D7D95B97128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
