DESCRIPTION

From Here to Maternity
This book offers a psychoanalytical, Marxist, feminist approach to the way motherhood is portrayed in quality American television series and how that affects the position of mothers in neoliberal American society.
Mothers on American television takes an in-depth look at how motherhood is represented on some of the most popular television series produced this century. Adopting a feminist, Marxist, cultural studies and psychoanalytical approach, the book offers a history of the positioning of mothers within American society. It provides detailed analysis of The Sopranos, Sex and the City, The Handmaid’s Tale and more, while reflecting on the newspaper ‘mommy wars’, employment patterns and alternative views of motherhood.
