Um mundo fora dos eixos: a literatura russa contemporânea através do Russian Booker Prize / A world out of order: the contemporary Russian literature through Russian Booker Prize

Oliveira, Deise de 15 March 2012 (has links)
Nosso projeto consiste na discussão sobre a literatura e cultura contemporânea na Rússia, especialmente a questão do Pós-modernismo, por um recorte específico: a análise das obras ganhadoras do concurso Russian Booker Prize com enfoque no processo de classificação adotado pelos júris , bem como um apanhado geral da premiação na Rússia. Para tal, analisaremos, em um primeiro momento, os pensadores e críticos mais representativos dessa prosa alternativa ou pós-moderna, sempre com um embasamento histórico. Entender o indivíduo pós-soviético será de fundamental importância para lidar com os temas e personagens dos romances vencedores. Em um segundo momento, nosso trabalho será o de investigar os critérios utilizados pela banca, a fim de tentar encontrar (se houver) algum ponto comum entre algumas das obras ganhadoras. Pensar em tais pontos será de suma importância para compreender os sistemas de valores dos críticos envolvidos nesse processo de premiação, além de colaborar para o enriquecimento de uma nova abordagem analítica da nova literatura russa e de alguns de seus nomes mais prolíficos. / Our project consists in the discussion of contemporary literature and culture in Russia, especially the question of post-modernism, by a specific focus: the analysis of the winning works of the Russian Booker Prize contest focusing on the process of classification adopted by the judges as well as a overview of the awards in Russia. To this end, we will analyze, at first, critical thinkers and most representative of this \"prose alternative\" or post-modern, always with a historical foundation. Understanding the individual post-Soviet is of fundamental importance to deal with the issues and characters of novels winners. In a second step, our work is to investigate the criteria used by banks in order to try to find (if any) a common point among some of the winning works. Think about these points will be extremely important to understand the value systems of the critics involved in the awards process, and contribute to the enrichment of a new analytical approach of the new Russian literature and some of its most prolific names.

Man Pain in the Man Booker Prize: A Quantitative Approach to Contemporary Canon Formation

Powell, Caitlin E 01 January 2014 (has links)
This project examines the corpus of novels that have been nominated for the Man Booker Prize and, using the prize as a creator of a contemporary literary canon, attempts to develop a model of a contemporary best text. Using the distant reading techniques proposed by digital humanities scholar Franco Moretti to track and graph a variety of formal and structural variables across the corpus of nominees, it becomes apparent that the kind of novel that typically wins the Booker Prize and thus the kind of novel that qualifies as a contemporary best text fits a distinct mold. These novels are solemn, serious texts written by British or Irish men, and the stories they tell concern young British or Irish men struggling, often alone, in pain, and under the threat of impending age, through a brutal, violent, and amoral world.

Identitetens pris : Kritik, priser och kapitalcirkulation på det litterära fältet

Bengtsson, Johanna January 2014 (has links)
The aim of this study is to study the construction of literary values. I have been looking at how literature awarded with sponsored literary prizes has been reviewed in four major English and American newspapers. I have been studying the reception of literature by Ian McEwan, Hilary Mantel, Colm Tóibín and Zadie Smith between 2000 and 2012. The prizes in focus are the Man Booker Prize, the Orange prize for fiction and the Costa Awards. There seems to be an increasing number of articles related to each author after they have been awarded a prize, however with little change in the content of the reviews. The non critical articles seems to move towards a more personal angle. I have also found that critics tend to position the authors’ works in comparision to canonised authorships rather than discussing the literature as awarded.
