WONDER WOMAN UNBOUND: THE CURIOUS HISTORY OF THE WORLD’S MOST FAMOUS HEROINE
Book ID/图书代码： 12580015B82800
English Summary/英文概要： This close look at Wonder Woman’s history portrays a complicated heroine who is more than just a female Superman with a golden lasso and bullet-deflecting bracelets. The original Wonder Woman was ahead of her time, advocating female superiority and the benefits of matriarchy in the 1940s. At the same time, her creator filled the comics with titillating bondage imagery, and Wonder Woman was tied up as often as she saved the world. In the 1950s, Wonder Woman begrudgingly continued her superheroic mission, wishing she could settle down with her boyfriend instead, all while continually hinting at hidden lesbian leanings.
While other female characters stepped forward as women’s lib took off in the late 1960s, Wonder Woman fell backwards, losing her superpowers and flitting from man to man. Ms.magazine and Lynda Carter restored Wonder Woman’s feminist strength in the 1970s, turning her into a powerful symbol as her checkered past was quickly forgotten.
Exploring this lost history adds new dimensions to the world’s most beloved female character, and WONDER WOMAN UNBOUND delves into her comic book and its spin-offs as well as the myriad motivations of her creators to showcase the peculiar journey that led to Wonder Woman’s iconic status.
For the first time Wonder Woman will not only be in the movie Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice to be released in 2016, and Justice League Part 1 to be released in 2017, but the heroine will have her own film Wonder Woman, scheduled for release in 2017
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 人们对于神奇女侠的了解仅限于戴着黄金套锁和防弹手镯的女超人形象，而《挣脱束缚的神奇女侠》则深入关注了《神奇女侠》漫画的创作历史，剖析了这个复杂的女英雄形象。在1940年代，原版《神奇女侠》的意识是超前的，该人物倡导了女性优势以及女权社会。而与此同时，《神奇女侠》的创作者却在漫画中加入了很多挑逗的捆绑镜头，神奇女侠被抓住的次数机会和她拯救世界的次数简直一样多。而在50年代的作品中，神奇女侠已经很少拯救地球了，她期望自己能和自己的男朋友安顿下来，可作品中又隐隐显现出神奇女侠的女同倾向。
随着60年代女权运动的推进，其他的一些女性角色都在向前迈进，而神奇女侠却越来越弱，不仅失去了自己的超能力，还在男人间流连忘返。麦格琴女士和琳达•卡特在70年代的时候恢复了神奇女侠的女性力量，把她重新塑造成为一个强有力的形象，之前的一些插曲也很快被人们遗忘了。
探索这段遗失的历史使得人们对于这个世界上最受人钟爱的女性形象有了一个全新的认识，《挣脱束缚的神奇女侠》一书也深入挖掘了漫画中的各种转折和作者的动机，使得神奇女侠拥有了标志性的地位。
神奇女侠会出现在2016年电影《蝙蝠侠与超人：黎明的正义》和2017年电影《正义联盟：第一部》中，而第一部以神奇女侠为主角的电影也将在2017年上映。（XAT）
Awards/获奖情况：“我从没有看到过比《挣脱束缚的神奇女侠》更详尽的关于神奇女侠信息的书籍，提姆•汉利几乎告诉了我们想知道的以及从未想过的一切：从她早期传奇的黄金时代，到其灰暗的白银时代，在此期间，神奇女侠成为了一个为情所困的漫画角色，而在60年代后期则更糟，她干脆失去了超能力和制服。1970年代后期，在格洛丽亚•斯泰纳姆和麦格琴女士的创作和琳达•卡特对其荧幕形象的塑造，我们的亚马逊女战士又变得无坚不摧起来。全书的语言也十分幽默。谢谢你，提姆！”——缇娜•罗宾斯，《漂亮墨水》和《1896至2013年北美女性漫画家》作者
“这本书将神奇女侠这个角色审视得很透彻。”——《布斯特》
“对女性主义形象生动而重要的审视。”——《书目》
“大部分的观众对于漫画的历史并不是很了解，这本内容有趣而详实的书就非常适合他们。读者应该很喜欢《神奇女侠》中的脚注和一些古怪的琐事，这些帮助作者在超级英雄漫画漫天的时代找到了自己的一席之地，也使得神奇女侠的早期形象非常得强大特别。”——《图书馆杂志》
“捆绑、一夫多妻、实验室外套、漫画书、女权主义，汉利所介绍的历史包罗万象。《挣脱束缚的神奇女侠》很古怪，也很复杂，但汉利将这一形象诠释得很好。”——《芝加哥读者》
“作者详尽且非常有深度地剖析了一个文化标志人物，该漫画人物与十几年的文化息息相关却从未真正地被人们了解。这部作品堪称是漫画书的学术作品。”——《科克斯评论》
“《挣脱束缚的神奇女侠》是一部非常棒的漫画历史书籍，将神奇女侠和她同时期的一些漫画人物形象进行了详细的比较。”——《纽约书评》
"I’ve never seen more information about Wonder Woman than in Wonder Woman Unbound! Author Tim Hanley tells us everything we’ve never asked about Wonder Woman because it simply never occurred to us: from her mythic Golden Age origins through her dismal Silver Age years as a lovesick romance comic character, and worse yet, when she lost her costume and powers in the late 1960s. Our favorite Amazon’s saga becomes upbeat again with the 1970s advent of Gloria Steinem and Ms Magazine, and Lynda Carter’s unforgettable portrayal of her on television. And it’s all told with a dollop of humor, thanks, Tim!" – Trina Robbins, author of Pretty in Ink, North American Women Cartoonists from 1896 to 2013
"Wonder Woman is the sum of her parts, and all of those parts should be examined thoroughly—something this book does very well." —Bust
"A lively and important examination of a key feminist icon." —Booklist
"There’s plenty here for Wonder Woman fans; Hanley writes with clarity and enthusiasm, and he’s got a fine eye for the goofy absurdities of comic-book narratives..." —Salon.com
"An entertaining and informative read, Hanley’s book is well suited for a general audience less familiar with comic book history. The expert may enjoy the author’s footnotes and the odder bits of trivia he includes...[Hanley] helpfully situates his subject in the universe of superhero comics and ably describes what made her seem unique and powerful to readers in her early years." —Library Journal
"Bondage, polyamory, lab coats, comic books, feminism: his story has everything. It’s weird and complicated, but at least it has a good interpreter in Hanley." —Chicago Reader
"...the author offers a compelling and insightful consideration of a cultural icon that has endured and engaged with the culture for many decades without ever truly being known. A richly detailed, often-surprising work of comic-book scholarship." —Kirkus
"A useful companion history that’s good at placing the character in the setting of her comic-franchise peers." —New York Review of Books
