    (Anti)Feminisms in Jonathan Franzen’s "Purity"
    (Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (España). Facultad de Filología. Departamento de Filologías Extranjeras y sus Lingüísticas, 2016-06-01) Vigorito Torres, Frank
    In this paper the author analyses the attitudes towards feminisms in Jonathan Franzen’s novel Purity. The analysis is based on a theoretical framework provided by Nancy Chodorow (The Reproduction of Mothering) and Elizabeth Grosz (Volatile Bodies). By examining the characters in chronological order according to the novel’s timeline, the author finds (often problematic) notions of feminisms that nevertheless mature in each generation, culminating in the novel’s youngest and most mature feminist character, Pip.
