This book looks at a wide range of fiction and film texts, from the
1950s to the present, in order to analyse the ways in which
masculinity has been represented in popular culture in Britain and
the United States. It covers numerous genres, including spy
fiction, science fiction, the Western and police thrillers. Each
chapter focuses on key forms of masculinity found in each genre,
such as the 'double agent', the 'rogue cop' and the
'citizen-soldier'. Brian Baker takes a broad, contextual approach,
placing a detailed discussion of key texts and issues concerning
masculinity in their historical and cultural context. Written in a
clear, accessible way, it explores the changing representation of
men over the last fifty years.
