Description - Soldier Heroes by Graham Dawson
Soldier heroes of the modern world have proved potent images of Britishness and the masculine. Soldier Heroes presents a ground-breaking exploration of the imagining of masculinities in adventure stories. It analyses range across biographies, news-reports, novels and play fantasies, considering great hero figures as T.E. Lawrence and Henry Havelock. Drawing on literary theory, cultural materialism and psychoanalysis, it traces a history of British heroic masculinities from nineteenth-century imperialism to the present, and examines their internalization in the lived identities of men and boys.
