Masculinity and Patriarchal Villainy in the British Novel: From
Hitler to Voldemort sits at the intersection of literary studies
and masculinity studies, arguing that the villain, in many works of
contemporary British fiction, is a patriarchal figure that embodies
an excess of patriarchal power that needs to be controlled by the
hero. The villains' stories are enactments of empowerment fantasies
and cautionary tales against abusing patriarchal power. While
providing readers with in-depth studies of some of the most popular
contemporary fiction villans, Sara Martin shows how current
representations of the villain are not only measured against
previous literary characters but also against the real-life figure
of the archvillain Adolf Hitler.
