28	The action hero revisioned : an analysis of female "masculinity" in the new female hero in recent filmic texts Goodwill, Jo-Anne Shirley 02 1900 (has links) The hero is a key archetype in Western culture. However, the hero has almost invariably been male, with associated traits deemed “masculine” within the gender binary. Feminists have begun to rigorously interrogate this binary, and the associated biological essentialism that precludes women from heroism. The fruits of this process are evident in recent popular filmic texts, which feature women as heroes. I examine developments in gender theory, propose a behaviour-based definition of masculinity, and argue that the new female action heroes authentically perform this masculinity. I then examine several select recent films and television series, showing that the new female action hero proves that “masculinity” can be authentically performed by female-bodied persons, and moreover is a liberatory model for ordinary women who wish to assert themselves in the public sphere. Finally, I argue that female action heroes model a new heroic archetype which embraces the best traits of both “masculinity” and “femininity.” Keywords “women in popular culture” “women as heroes” “gender studies” “film / English Studies / M.A. (English) Gender studies Women as heroes Motion picture studies Women culture 791.436522 Women in motion pictures Feminist film criticism Feminism and motion pictures Women heroes Women in motion pictures Feminist film criticism Feminism and motion pictures Women heroes
