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.
