This book describes the evolution of feminist film and television Westerns from the early sound era to the present which subvert the conventions of masculinist Westerns that support the exploitation of a feminized Western landscape, materially, and ideologically, by exhorting the masculinized values of competition and violence and the suppression of native peoples and nature. Feminist Westerns instead exhort the transporting of domestic values of the private realm such as love, compassion, and cooperation into the previously masculinized public realm of competition. Cinematic feminist Westerns focus primarily on establishing agency and subjecthood for women protagonists while also insisting that women have a right to move beyond a paradigm focusing on self-sacrifice as the main objective for women professionals by arguing implicitly that women can also seek self-gratification in their work like male professionals. Televisual Westerns move on to show how liberation for women can be extended to other marginalized groups and to nature itself in order to transform the West from a landscape of exploitation into an egalitarian garden where cooperation and integration are the norm. Hence this study concentrates mainly on representations of women professionals in Westerns to demonstrate how the garden spot is made possible as women move from the private realm to the public realm and thus transform America by altering the basic values of the frontier and the Western protagonist.
