More about the book

The analysis explores the complex portrayal of femmes fatales in literature, highlighting their frequent misrepresentation as villainous figures. It argues that these characters often embody victimization, challenging oppressive societal norms. Instead of being mere seductresses, they utilize their gender and sexuality as forms of capital, which can either enhance their value in a patriarchal society or lead to their vilification. This thesis sheds light on the deeper implications of these characters, revealing their struggles against societal constraints.
