For my Lit Review, I am planning on organizing my sources into three categories:
First are the sources that cover general cultural change within the 1920s, and the arguments about where it was stemming from and why.
Then I plan on analyzing works on the Flapper specifically and how they generally place her into growing out of and representing either the changing ideas about Gender Roles or the change in Youth as a culture.
Ultimately, I have found that this is really the best way for me to organize my sources because that is the way they seem to categorize themselves. My argument is that, although the Flapper is generally seen as a symbol of the many facets of cultural change in the decade, historians typically argue her to be MOST representative of specific veins of cultural change.
