Comic Elements in Women's Novels of Development from the

Comic Elements in Women's Novels of Development from the s to the s: Women s humour is a contested area, often perceived as transgressive, unseemly and unfeminine, or deemed non-existent in the fi rst place. In recent decades, feminist theory has undertaken a reappraisal and stressed the subversive potential of humour used by women. In a similar vein, the Bildungsroman, as a genre which traditionally delineated the development of men protagonists, was taken up, changed and assimilated by women writers in the course of its history. This study takes a close look at humorous Bildungsromane by women authors in the last decades of the 20th century. The focal points are the strategies of humour, which are employed to various means, often oscillating between subversive and affi rmative positions. In effect, feminist views stressing the innate subversiveness of women s humour need to be re-assessed and the uneasy positioning of the comic in women s writing acknowledged. Looking beyond national views of humour, the texts in focus are by British, Canadian and American authors.

The Development of the Mediated Mind: Sociocultural Context

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lucariello / Lucariello, Joan M. / Fivush, Robyn, PUBLISHER: Psychology Press, This volume is a festschrift for Katherine Nelson, an NYU professor who was a pioneer in infant perception and memory. The mediated mind is a term coined by Dr. Nelson and it refers to how cognitive development is mediated by the sociocultural context, including language and social interaction. The impact of Nelson's views on the sociocultural basis of cognition and her functionalist perspective on cognitive development are evident in the collection of chapters in this book. The contributors--all leaders in the field of cognitive development--examine ways in which cognition is embedded in everyday, meaningful activities and the role of social context and cultural symbol symptoms, such as language and text influence children's developing concepts and thought. The concept of the mediated mind is examined from a variety of perspectives, including research in concept development, memory development, language learning, the development of literacy, narrative analysis, and children's theory of mind. The significant contribution of this volume is that it addresses all aspects of the mediated mind. Memory--both autobiographical and event-semantic--theory of mind, mental representation, temporality, narrative, and metalinguistic awareness comprise the chapter topics. The breadth of topics represented is a tribute to the impact Nelson's vision has on many developmental domains. The contributors acknowledge and honor her work. Her theory and research paved the way for the advances in understanding a mediated mind that are evident and that will continue to shape notions of how the human mind develops and evolves within a social, interactive world.
