Sexualizing Power In Naturalism, sheds light on the function of
female sexuality in a predominantly male genre: naturalist fiction.
Gammel reveals that naturalism is frequently implicated in the very
power structures it critiques. Reading European and North American
naturalism through the lens of feminist and Foucaultian theories of
power, Gammel argues that twentieth-century naturalism increasingly
deconstructs itself in its depiction of sexuality, inevitably
exposing the genre's internal ideological contradictions. The book
makes a special contribution to Canadian studies.
