A recent book with Brontë-related content:
Edited by Emma Domínguez-Rué
London Center for Interdisciplinary Research
ISBN: 978-1-9196138-6-4
December 2021

Beyond Identities: Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Gender attempts at illustrating ongoing discussions on and about Gender Studies by focussing on different approaches to gender as a category to define experience, both in theory and in practice – including notions of time and space, questions regarding sexual identity, or geographical, socio-economic and political concerns informing gender roles. The book aims at exploring the ways in which gender interacts with
– and is embedded in – socio-cultural discourses, while interrogating attitudes to gender and gender roles through the perspective of literature, TV series, or cinema among other cultural manifestations. The series of LCIR conferences that inspired the creation of this book are grounded on the principle that more interdisciplinary work is needed in order to understand the nuances of gender as a category that defines our identity and the way we experience the world around us. Therefore, the chapters contained in this volume will hopefully contribute to enriching current discussions about the multifaceted aspects of gender and their impact in society.
The book includes the chapter "Nature versus Culture and Female/Male Relationships in Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights and John Fowles’s The French Lieutenant’s Woman" by Tatjana Šepić.
