Book Description: WW Norton Co, United States, 2006. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 207 x 155 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Lynn Peril takes on a twentieth-century American icon: the college girl. The dual vision of the American archetype - a geek in glasses or a sex kitten in a teddy - was born when the age-old conflict over educating women was laid to rest. College was a place where women found self-esteem and yet images in popular culture reflected a lingering distrust of the educated woman. Thus, such lofty cultural expressions as "Sex Kittens Go to College" (1960) and a raft of naughty pictorials in men's magazines. Peril combines women's history and popular culture - peppered with delightful examples of femoribilia from the turn of the twentieth century to the 1980s - in an intelligent and witty study of the college girl, the first woman to take that socially controversial step towards educational equity. This is a paperback original. Bookseller Inventory # AAC9780393327151 Bookseller & Payment Information | More Books from this Seller | Ask Bookseller a Question |
