Masculinities and Literary Studies

If much of the existing masculinity scholarship has traditionally been grounded in a specific discipline, this project provides an innovative methodological approach to the subject of literary masculinities by proving the applicability of interdisciplinary masculinity scholarship -namely, sociology, social work, psychology, economics, political science, ecology, etc.- to the literary analysis, bridging the traditional gap between the Social Sciences and the Humanities in radically new and profound ways.
