Evil by Design: The Creation and Marketing of the Femme Fatale

by Elizabeth K. Menon

Menon (art history, Purdue U.) examines depictions of the contemporary women called the daughter of Eve, tracing a set of motifs associated with her as she is transformed into various manifestations of the femme fatale. French journal illustrations and other popular culture forms provide her primary evidence, and she uses literature to locate these visual representations within a larger context.
