This essay examines how female authors are described in the literary canon of two different editions of the Swedish education material on the history of literature: Svenska Timmar – litteraturen. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the depiction of female authors has changed from the first edition (1991) to the last edition (2012), and how these changes correspond with the curriculums Lgy70 and Lgy11. The study is quantitative as well as qualitative. The quantitative part of the study shows that the percentage of female authors has increased in the 2012 edition. A greater number of female authors are also portrayed with pictures and headings. This increase is partly explained by the new curriculum, Lgy11, which demands that female authors should be included in the history of literature. This was not the case with Lgy70. The qualitative part of the study contains a feminist and gender analysis, examining how a “gender system” produces and reproduces a dichotomy and hierarchy between the sexes, where the male is norm and the female deviates from this norm. This section shows that, despite the increased number of female authors, their portrayal still differs from that of the male authors. For example, the literary work of women is likely to be categorized as “female literature”, which signals that it is not considered as general as the men’s work. This is, in my conclusion, a way to reproduce the gender system of the literary canon. / Denna uppsats undersöker i vilken omfattning och på vilket sätt kvinnliga författare framställs i den litterära kanon som förmedlas i två olika upplagor av ett läromedel i litteraturhistoria för gymnasieskolans högskoleförberedande program: Svenska Timmar – litteraturen. Syftet med studien har varit att undersöka om det sker någon förändring mellan den första upplagan 1991 och den senaste upplagan 2012, och hur dessa förändringar förhåller sig till läroplanerna Lgy70 och Lgy11. Målet har varit att blottlägga några eventuella värdeförskjutningar kring kvinnliga författarskap som har ägt rum i gymnasieskolan inofficiella litterära kanon. För att undersöka detta har antalet kvinnliga författare i Svenska Timmar – litteraturen dels beräknats kvantitativt, dels studerats kvalitativt. Den kvantitativa delen av studien visar att andelen kvinnliga författare, och textutrymmet som de upptar, har ökat i upplagan från 2012. Fler kvinnliga författarskap porträtteras också med en egen bild och rubrik jämfört med 1991. Skillnaden beror förmodligen på att läroplanen Lgy11 – till skillnad från Lgy70 – innehåller krav på att kvinnliga författare ska inkluderas i litteraturundervisningen. Den kvalitativa analysen har inneburit att de två upplagorna har lästs från en feministisk och genusteoretisk horisont, med huvudsaklig utgångpunkt i Yvonne Hirdmans teori om hur ett genussystem skapas och upprätthålls genom en dikotomi och en hierarki mellan könen, där mannen uppfattas som norm och kvinnan som avvikande. Den kvalitativa delen av studien visar att även om antalet kvinnliga författare är fler, existerar fortfarande skillnader mellan hur kvinnliga och manliga författare framställs. Kvinnornas civilstånd fokuseras i större utsträckning än männens i båda upplagorna. Kvinnorna föses också ihop i särskilda delar, under rubriker som antyder att det handlar om ”kvinnolitteratur” och inte om allmängiltig litteratur. Sådana strategier bekräftar genussystemets särhållande av könen, istället för att bryta mot det, och som blivande svensklärare är det viktigt att ha insikt om hur den manliga normen fortsätter att prägla läromedel i litteraturhistoria.

Em virtude disto, tem-se discutido qual seria a melhor classificação de gênero para a obra: romance biográfico, obra historiográfica, romance histórico. A presente dissertação investiga em que medida a Ciropedia de Xenofonte apresenta elementos narrativos que nos permitam reconhecer nela aspectos do gênero do romance, mais especificamente do “romance de formação” (Bildungsroman), gênero cujo paradigma se encontra na obra de Goethe, Os Anos de Aprendizagem de Wilhelm Meister (1795-1796). Primeiramente, procuramos definir em que medida nós podemos ler a Ciropedia como uma obra de ficção, e não como uma obra historiográfica, a partir de reflexões a respeito das relações entre Literatura e História, e, principalmente, por meio de uma análise comparativa entre a narrativa da Ciropedia com a narrativa das Histórias de Heródoto. Percebe-se que Xenofonte ficcionaliza a narrativa estabelecida por Heródoto, seja retomando temas, seja fazendo alusões à narrativa herodoteana. Em seguida, partindo-se da noção bakhtiniana de que todo gênero conserva, em sua estrutura, elementos formais da archaica, que não só caracterizam o gênero de forma distintiva, mas também permitem a sua renovação a cada nova manifestação literária, procuramos definir quais elementos essenciais presentes no Romance de Formação moderno encontramos na Ciropedia. Analisamos cenas em que são evidentes a partipação de mentores, a presença de uma instituição pedagógica, a visão teleológica da educação. Além disso, uma das características essenciais do “Romance de Formação” é a presença de uma personagem dinâmica e evolutiva, que se forma e educa... / The Xenophon’s Cyropaedia, written in the fourth century B.C., it is a work of hybrid character, in which fiction and history mingle with a lot of freedom. Because of this, it has been discussed what would be the best genre classification for the work: biographical novel, work of historiography, historical novel. This dissertation investigates the extent to which Cyropaedia Xenophon's narrative has elements that allow us to recognize aspects of her romance genre, specifically the “Novel of Education” (Bildungsroman), genre whose paradigm is in the work Goethe’s Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship (1795-1796). First, we looked to define to what extent we can read the Cyropaedia as a work of fiction, and not as a work of historiography, from reflections on the relationship between Literature and History, and mainly through a comparative analysis between the narrative of Cyropaedia and the narrative of Herodotus’ Histories. We realize that Xenophon fictionalizes the narrative established by Herodotus, whether taking up subjects, or alluding to the Herodotus' narratives. Then, starting from the Bakhtin's notion that every genre preserves, in the structure, formal elements of archaica, that not only characterize the genre in the form distinctive, but also allows its renewal every new literary manifestation, we tried to define which essential elements present in modern novel of education we can find in Cyropaedia. We analyze scenes where are evident the action of mentors, the presence of an educational institution, the theological view of education. Moreover, an important characteristic essential of the “Novel of Education” is the presence of a dynamic and evolutionary character, that get formation in the course of the narrative. We analyzed the construction and evolution of the main character of the narrative... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

The research examined how these three elements appear in the stories of Primeiras Estórias e Tutaméia-Terceiras Estórias. We also analyzed his interviews, as well as letters exchanged with friends, relatives and family, and notes recorded in diaries, notebooks and studies for the work. This research aims to demonstrate that the historical culture of an individual is not formed only by the school or academic knowledge, but by a wide range of knowledge and interests that lie beyond the historiography and history itself. This dissertation considers that there is, in Guimarães Rosa´s work, a constant need of evasion of time. The author criticizes the history in that it favors the study on momentary and deeply desecrated events. Memory becomes, in his work as a literary resource whose purpose is to restore the sacred dimension to events. This study is linked to the research line "History Teaching and Historical Knowledge" of Paraíba Federal University Post Graduation Program, with a major in History and Historical Culture , and intends to analyze the readings and experiences that guided the statements made by Guimarães Rosa, throughout life, "against the story." / O objetivo deste trabalho é discutir as representações sobre história, tempo e memória presentes na literatura de João Guimarães Rosa. A pesquisa examinou o modo como estes três elementos aparecem nos contos de Primeiras Estórias e Tutaméia Terceiras Estórias. Também foram analisadas as entrevistas concedidas pelo escritor mineiro, assim como as cartas trocadas com amigos, parentes e familiares, e as anotações feitas em diários, cadernos e estudos para a obra. Esta pesquisa pretendeu demonstrar que a cultura histórica de um indivíduo não é formada apenas pelo conhecimento escolar ou acadêmico, mas por uma ampla gama de saberes e interesses que se situam além da historiografia e da própria ciência histórica. A presente dissertação considera que há, na obra de Guimarães Rosa, uma constante necessidade de evasão do tempo. O autor critica a história na medida em que ela privilegia o estudo sobre eventos passageiros e profundamente dessacralizados. A memória se transforma, em sua obra, em recurso literário cujo objetivo é restituir a dimensão sagrada aos acontecimentos. Este estudo se vincula à linha de pesquisa Ensino de História e Saberes Históricos do Programa de Pós- Graduação em História da Universidade Federal da Paraíba, com área de concentração em História e Cultura Histórica , e pretendeu perscrutar as leituras e experiências que nortearam as declarações que Guimarães Rosa fez, ao longo da vida, contra a história .

Esta dissertação se propõe a analisar a trajetória dos romances ingleses no Rio de Janeiro nas três primeiras décadas do século XIX. Para tanto, utilizamos os documentos de requisição de liberação de livros da Mesa do Desembargo do Paço com a finalidade de apontar os responsáveis pela importação dessas obras literárias, bem como indicar quais romances ingleses tinham maior circulação. Visando esboçar o percurso dos romances, examinamos os anúncios de compra, venda, aluguel e leilão de dois periódicos importantes: a Gazeta do Rio de Janeiro (1808 1821) e o Diário do Rio de Janeiro (1821 1831). / The purpose of this dissertation is to analyse the circulation of English novels in Rio de Janeiro in the first three decades of the nineteenth century. The documents of the Mesa do Desembargo do Paço (the institution responsible for the censorship and liberation of books) in Rio de Janeiro will be used in order to bring light to the booksellers who were responsible for the importation of English novels as well as to highlight which of these novels were bestsellers. For an overview of the trade of English novels in Rio de Janeiro, the advertisements of two of the most important newspapers of the beginning of the nineteenth century will be taken into account: the Gazeta do Rio de Janeiro (1808 1821) and the Diário do Rio de Janeiro (1821 1831)

L’objet de cette thèse est d’étudier la morale des histoires tragiques, du milieu du XVIe siècle au début du XVIIe siècle, à partir de la notion d’exemplarité. Cette notion nous permet de dépasser l’opposition entre l’histoire tragique conçue comme « histoire de loi » ou comme une littérature à sensation et de trouver une voie médiane entre le moralisme de l’une et immoralité de l’autre. La morale des histoires tragiques est avant tout une morale de l’exemple. Nous montrons que l’idée que l’exemplarité traverse une crise à la Renaissance doit être largement relativisée et que le mode d’énonciation de la nouvelle favorise son fonctionnement exemplaire. Nous analysons ensuite comment l’exemplarité morale permet de comprendre le positionnement générique des histoires tragiques et explique en grande partie son rapprochement avec l’histoire et la tragédie, conçues comme des genres moraux. Enfin, nous étudions la nature et les problèmes de cette exemplarité qui repose sur la force des mauvais exemples et sur des cas extraordinaires qui semblent aller à contre-courant des prescriptions morales. Les histoires tragiques tentent de mettre sur pied un nouveau type d’exemplarité qui s’appuie sur le cas singulier et non plus sur la répétition d’exemples semblables. / This thesis aims to show how exemplarity allows for a fresh analysis of the morality of tragic short stories, known as “histoires tragiques”, between the second half of the 16th century and the beginning of the 17th. The ”histoires tragiques” are neither just “histoires de loi” nor sensationalistic stories, and exemplarity helps us find a middle way between the former’s moralism and the later’s immorality. The morality of the “histoires tragiques” essentially works through examples: on this basis, we first put into perspective the crisis that exemplarity is thought to be going through during the Early modern period. We then argue that, through moral exemplarity, we can understand how the “histoires tragiques” take after the two moral “genres” of history and tragedy. Lastly, we study the limits of this exemplarity, which mainly proceeds from the seduction of bad examples and extraordinary cases that seem to be in contrast with commun moral. As the “histoires tragiques” don’t rely anymore on the repetition of similar exemples, this singularity of cases can be seen as a mean to renew exemplarity.

This dissertation is a study of the religious and ethical influences on the lives of three American Jewish women: Anzia Yezierska (ca. 1880-1970), immigrant-born author from the Lower East Side who gave poignant voice in her fiction to immigrant Jewish women's lives; Rose Pastor Stokes (1879-1933), immigrant-born political activist and an early member of the American Communist party; and Maud Nathan (1862-1946), an upper-class, American-born Jew who fought for female enfranchisement and better working conditions for store clerks and sweatshop women. In a thematic approach drawing comparisons among the three women, this study explores the role and impact of Jewish religion and values on their personal and professional life choices. Related to this main question are the following secondary questions: As deviant women--women who did not fulfill traditional gender and religious prescriptions for home-bound domesticity--how did these women negotiate their deviance within the Jewish and larger American communities? In their autobiographies, how did they present their lives, and to what extent did they reveal any awareness of the impact of their Jewish birthright upon their life choices? And how did their relations with the significant people in their lives--friends, families, and mentors--influence both their gender and Jewish consciousness? Through close reading of their writings, especially their autobiographies, augmented by selected theoretical work in the presentation of self, I examine how they each defined their Jewishness in ways consonant with their personal and professional aspirations, and how they all drew on their cultural, religious, and class values to play an active public role in their time.
