More about the book
The book explores the rise of contemporary women performers within the traditionally male-dominated bullfighting culture, challenging the discourse of 'traditionalist' masculinity. It delves into the evolving roles of women in this arena, analyzing how gender is represented, enacted, and negotiated in modern Spain. Through this lens, it sheds light on broader themes of gender dynamics and cultural change in a setting often resistant to female participation.
