Обложка Kenneth A. Loparo: Making Meaning in Popular Romance Fiction (PDF)

Despite pioneering studies, the term ‘romance novel’ itself has not been subjected to scrutiny. This book examines mass-market romance fiction in the U.K., Canada, and the U.S. through four categories: capitalism, war, heterosexuality, and white Protestantism and casts a fresh light on the genre.
