Denna studie syftar till att undersöka den didaktiska potentialen i Margaret Atwoods Tjänarinnans berättelse och hur den kan användas i svenskundervisningen i gymnasieskolan för att utbilda elever i den svenska skolans etiska principer. Dessa etiska principer innefattar bland annat respekt för miljön, alla människors lika värde och jämställdhet. Tjänarinnans berättelse kommer i denna studie läsas ur ett ekofeministiskt perspektiv och analyseras tematiskt. Den tematiska analysen har vidare identifierat fyra teman: miljöpåverkan, mänskliga rättigheter, utnyttjande av kvinnokroppen och religiös frihet. I den didaktiska analysen kopplas dessa fyra teman till läroplanen och diskuteras utifrån ett didaktiskt perspektiv. Analysen visar den didaktiska potentialen i Tjänarinnans berättelse och att romanen är lämpad för att undervisa i svenska skolans etiska principer.

Songs for Murdered Sisters is a song cycle by Jake Heggie with poetry by Margaret Atwood based on the murders of three women in Ontario, Canada, all of whom were killed by the same former romantic partner in September 2015. Joshua Hopkins, baritone and brother of one of the women, commissioned composer Jake Heggie to write a cycle to memorialize his sister and draw awareness to the problem of violence against women. This document is to be used by singers and pianists in their performance and preparation of the cycle.

<p>The aim of this thesis is to examine the impact that clothing has in Margaret Atwood’s novel <em>The Blind Assassin</em> from 2000. The essay begins with a brief overview of how clothing has been acknowledged in different areas of research. The overview leads up to the conclusion that fashion, as well as clothing in large, has been overly ignored as a potentially fruitful subject of academic status. This is much due to the fact that fashion is traditionally regarded as being a classically feminine subject, as well as it can be said to be a result of fashion’s very elusive character. In the analysis of the novel the text first discusses the role that clothing has in a societal perspective as a means of power, partly in relation to Girard’s erotic triangle, as well as in relation to gender and Atwood’s dystopian parallel story. The essay then focuses on the naked body, which is found to be non-existing in Atwood’s novel, and goes on to discuss the suggestive qualities that clothing is given in the novel. In the concluding part, the results of the research is summed up and I am able to draw the conclusion that clothing has a great significance in <em>The Blind Assassin</em>, together with the notion that literary criticism is in need of a discourse that acknowledges clothing and fashion theory as academic subjects.</p>
