- Description
- This collection examines fatal femininity as a cultural preoccupation across different cultural contexts and historical epochs. The essays range from cultural figures such as Salome and Mata Hari to the femme fatale of film noir. The collection is united by two key questions: what is at stake in specific constructions of fatal women? How do these constructions relate to their historical and social contexts?

- Description
- Analysis of representations of women as linked to death, produced by women writers and artists. Religious rituals, literature, film and war journalism are analysed. A central question is whether female writers and artists have rejected the dominant discourses of sexual fascination around women and death and produced different representations. Attention is paid to the cultural change in the 18th century, whereby death became more pronouncedly gendered than in the early modern period. This was in keeping with the new emphasis on sexual dichotomy in medicine, anthropology and philosophy.

- Description
- Images of black women, contemporary and historical, are examined and discussed. The focus is on the United States, but historical analysis extends to ancient Greek, Sumerian and West African cultures. The author also draws from her own experiences. She argues that the idea of 'strong black woman' is a deeply-rooted stereotype and includes significant emotional costs but also benefits for women living in this role.

- Description
- The study challenges received understandings, arguing that the period was marked by social unease and anxiety about gender roles and femininity. British cinema produced ambiguous messages about feminine identities and the role of women. Marginalized figures, such as prostitutes, criminals and femmes fatales, are analysed and the themes of sexuality, marriage and female friendship addressed. The author examines how British popular cinema imagined and constructed femininity. She describes how new ideas and understandings of femininity entered the cultural imagery. Films with proto-feminist ideas are presented and recognized as important representations of new forms of femininity.
