Becoming the Gentleman

Becoming the Gentleman

British Literature and the Invention of Modern Masculinity, 1660–1815

Contenu

Becoming the Gentleman explains why British citizens in the long eighteenth century were haunted by the question of what it meant to be a gentleman. Supplementing recent work on femininity, Solinger identifies a corpus of texts that address masculinity and challenges the notion of a masculine figure that has been regarded as unchanging.
