Ageing, Gender, and Illness in Anglophone Literature

Narrating Age in the Bildungsroman

More about the book

Focusing on the interaction between age, gender, and narrative genre, this study explores the Bildungsroman as a 'coming of age' novel. It integrates perspectives from age and disability studies to offer fresh insights into literary and genre history, examining the works of canonical authors. By establishing age as a significant category in literary analysis, the book redefines how we understand character development and narrative structures in relation to societal norms and expectations.
