Helen Ahner: Female ambition
When we question things that are supposedly self-evident, we start to see the world differently. How do we know what we should and shouldn’t feel? Why do bodies take on meaning? Cultural studies scholar Helen Ahner researches the dreams, stories, actions, rules, and structures that shape our lives by placing everyday, normal things under the magnifying glass. She is currently studying feelings in sport and investigating how female ambition has changed over the past hundred years.
