Through these sayings and witticisms the author delineates the image of women that these anti-proverbs reflect, her qualities, attributes and behavior. The book begins with an analysis of how women’s role in the family, their sexuality and traditional occupations are presented in proverbs, and presents an overview of the genre of the anti-proverb. The author then analyses how this image of women is transformed in anti-proverbs, sometimes subverting, but often reinforcing the sexist bias of the original. This engaging work will appeal to students and scholars of humour studies, paremiology, gender studies, cultural studies, folklore and sociolinguistics alike.. | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | female stereotypes; proverbs; humour; paremiology; folklore; Phraseology; satire; irony; parody; jokes; fractu | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-91198-4 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-08196-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-91198-4 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2019 |
