Women in Contemporary Culture: Roles and identities in France and Spain
Which female figures are proposed for our admiration? Who proposes them and what values do they represent? This is the only comparative study of its kind, investigating how women construct their roles within the public sphere, highlighting the ways in which traditional versus modern values impact on female identity in France and Spain.
This study embarks on an analysis of such cultural icons, going on to address contemporary roles and issues concerning women in the two countries. Finally, Twomey shows how these two strands of discussion inform and interact with each other.
