DescriptionIn the eighteenth century, women masquerading as men joined the military and these female warriors were represented in every type of popular literature. The right intersection of geopolitical and social conditions occurred allowing female warriors to flourish in literature, and by examining these conditions and utilizing the contemporary gender theories of female masculinity and performativity, for the first time we can holistically understand the reasons these women became popular cultural icons, and how they have impacted female warriors of today.
