ISBN: 9780415975483 / Angielski / Twarda / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Similarly, this book will argue that by defining itself in relation to indigenous masculinity, English masculinity began to share a common idiom with its colonial other. The rhetoric of indigenous masculinity, therefore, both mimicked and departed from its metropolitan counterpart. The study combines an interdisciplinary approach with a focus that is...
