About the Editors 253
'ir '
Despite the growing importance of heroines across literary culture—and sales figures that
demonstrate both young adult and adult females are reading about heroines in droves, particu-
larly in graphic novels, comic books, and YA literature—few scholarly collections have examined
the complex relationships between the representations of heroines and the changing societal
roles for both women and men.
In Heroines of Comic Books and Literature: Portrayals in Popular Culture, editors Maja Bajac-Carter,
Norma Jones, and Bob Batchelor have selected essays by award-winning contributors that offer
a variety of perspectives on the representations of heroines in today’s society. Focused on printed
media, this collection looks at heroic women depicted in literature, graphic novels, and comic
books. Addressing heroines from such sources as the Marvel and DC comic universes, manga,
and the Twilight novels, contributors go beyond the account of women as mothers, wives, war-
riors, goddesses, and damsels in distress.
These engaging and important essays situate heroines within culture, revealing them as tough and
self-sufficient females who often break the bounds of gender expectations in places readers may
not expect. Analyzing how women have been—and are—represented in print, this companion
volume to Heroines of Film and Television will appeal to scholars of literature, rhetoric, and media
as well as to broader audiences that are interested in portrayals of women in popular culture. |
