Resumen: |
Este libro examina los rasgos estereotipados de las mujeres tal como se reflejan en los antiproverbios angloamericanos, también conocidos como transformaciones de proverbios, innovaciones deliberadas de proverbios, alteraciones, parodias, variaciones, chistes, proverbios fracturados y mutaciones de proverbios. A través de estos dichos y ocurrencias la autora delinea la imagen de la mujer que reflejan estos antirefranes, sus cualidades, atributos y comportamiento. El libro comienza con un análisis de cómo se presentan en los proverbios el papel de la mujer en la familia, su sexualidad y sus ocupaciones tradicionales, y presenta una visión general del género del antiproverbio. Luego, el autor analiza cómo esta imagen de la mujer se transforma en antiproverbios, a veces subvirtiendo, pero a menudo reforzando el sesgo sexista del original. Este interesante trabajo atraerá tanto a estudiantes como a académicos de estudios del humor, paremiología, estudios de género, estudios culturales, folclore y sociolingüística. |

Summary : |
This book examines stereotypical traits of women as they are reflected in Anglo-American anti-proverbs, also known as proverb transformations, deliberate proverb innovations, alterations, parodies, variations, wisecracks, fractured proverbs, and proverb mutations. 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. |
