Tomorrow’s Heroines Fighting Today’s Demons: Dystopia in The Hunger Games and Divergent SeriesUnknown Date (has links)
Through a close analysis of Suzanne Collins’ Hunger Games series and Veronica
Roth’s Divergent series, it will be shown that these two-current young adult dystopian
book-film crossovers pose several relevant parallels to contemporary real-world
problems. By deciphering a pattern on what garners their popularity, and most
importantly analyzing the aspect of why they reached such levels of recognition, we can
then begin to close in on just how important these two series are in representing the 21st
century young American mindset. Taking into the equation also, how the overall-arching
genre of dystopia has evolved with the times and has now adapted to reflect
contemporary anxieties and fears. Looking into several elements such as a newfound
desire for strong female roles, persuasive antagonists that are inspired by realistic
historical precedents, and an unsettling desensitization towards violence and gore, we can
then see that the successful equation of The Hunger Games and Divergent series reflects
mainstream interests evocatively and effectively. It is not just an intervention into the encompassing utopian/dystopian tradition, but into today’s
sociology. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2018. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

Dystopia or dischtopia : an analysis of the SF paradigms in Thomas M. DischSwirski, Peter January 1990 (has links)
On the basis of an ontological analogy between the worlds of myth and dystopia, the present thesis argues the latter's inherently "metaphysical" character. As such, dystopia is regarded as categorically different from Science Fiction which, however grim in its surface presentation, always remains paradigmatically "non-metaphysical," i.e., neutral. This generic distinction is then applied to the analysis of the three most important SF works of Thomas M. Disch, one of the most interesting and accomplished contemporary SF writers. The generic, as well as socio-aesthetic discussion of Camp Concentration, 334, and On Wings of Song, traces Disch's development of a characteristically "Dischtopian" paradigm of social SF.

Previous issue date: 2005 / Resumo: O objetivo deste trabalho de mestrado é traduzir e estudar A Ilha dos Hermafroditas, obra em geral classificada junto a panfletos e à literatura polêmica, que, segundo Claude-Gilbert Dubois, inaugura o gênero utópico na França e, ao mesmo tempo, contém em si a primeira anti-utopia francesa. Artus Thomas, seu provável autor, não segue a estrutura paradigmática do texto de Thomas Morus, apresentando em um mesmo texto três partes distintas: uma anti-utopia de teor satírico, um poema panfletário e um discurso apologético, - a utopia propriamente dita. Para Pierre Bayle, trata-se de uma sátira engenhosa da corte de Henrique III, o último Valois, rei que se vestia de modo efeminado e vivia cercado de mignons com quem tinha uma relação confidencial. O alcance deste texto, de grande riqueza simbólica, vai, porém, além do tema sexual. Sua principal chave de leitura é a figura do hermafrodita, que, saído da área da teratologia médica, toma valor simbólico e pode ser transposto a diferentes áreas, especialmente à ideologia e à política, designando uma forma de oportunismo moral, econômico, filosófico e político, encoberto por uma ambigüidade de conduta e de discurso. Há neste libelo uma crítica ao estetismo maneirista derivado do naturalismo renascentista, em que o autor procura descobrir os vícios da natureza denunciando, ao mesmo tempo, as dissonâncias causadas pela subordinação dos princípios éticos à lei estética do interesse e do prazer. / Abstract: Not informed. / Mestrado / Historia e Historiografia Literaria / Mestre em Teoria e História Literária
