- More about The Making and Mirroring of Masculine Subjectivities: Gender, Affect, and Ethics in Modern World Narratives
This book explores modern world narratives in prose fiction and film, emphasizing masculine subjectivities through affects and ethics. It suggests that masculine subjectivities arise from a combination of copying and negation, surplus and lack, sameness and alterity, and provides a nuanced picture of diverse postpaternal postgentlemen emerging from older character structures.

This book delves into the intricate tapestry of modern world narratives in prose fiction and film, unveiling a profound exploration of masculine subjectivities through the lens of affects and ethics. By highlighting diverse mental states and subjective voices, these narratives present men as feeling, intersubjective beings, and not as detached masters of overarching master narratives. Through a comparative analysis of over 30 diverse world narratives, Mooney skillfully employs psychoanalytic thought, narrative theories of first- and third-person narrators, as well as Levinasian and feminist ethics of care, creativity, honor, and proximity. This comprehensive study sheds light on the emergence of a nuanced spectrum of postpaternal postgentlemen, emerging from the older character structures of the knight and gentleman.
