Den paradoxala kvinnan. En studie av Victoria Benedictssons och Mathilda Mallings kvinnoporträtt under 1880-talets sedlighetsdebatt / The paradox in women. A study of portraits of women in the works of Victoria Benedictsson’s and Mathilda Malling’s during the chastity debate in the 1880’s

Hög, Sofia, Sundberg, Nina January 2008 (has links)
The aim of this master thesis is to examine how female identity is formed in two novels and two short stories from the 1880’s. As a framework we rely on the method outlined by Pierre Bourdieu when he approaches the cultural and social worlds through the concept of fields. To understand the female position during that time we use Michel Foucault’s work about the history of sex, Thomas Laqueur’s theories about the rise of sexes and Karin Johannisson’s study about the exploration of the dark continent (i.e. women) during the 19th century. The concept of gender and identity is based on theories by Judith Butler and Ervin Goffman who describes them as processes rather than entities “doings” rather than “beings”. Our main question is to find out how female identities are formed in four literary works from the 1880’s. To approach our material we use ideal analysis and ideal types developed on the basis of Efrat Tseëlon’s studies about five paradoxes that circumscribe the concept “woman” through history. The objects of investigation are the novels Fru Marianne and Berta Funcke and the short stories Ur mörkret and Pyrrhussegrar written by Victoria Benedictsson and Mathilda Malling. Our conclusions reveals that the female identities in the works observed by us is formed under strong impact of several paradoxes that surrounds the conception of “woman” and we can see the protagonists struggle against those conceptions trying to find a possible way of existence. / Uppsatsnivå: D

Könade organisationer i den sociologiska disciplinen : Joan Ackers arv i sociologisk forskning och utbildning / Gendered organizations in the sociological discipline : Joan Acker's legacy in sociological research and education

Norberg, Vega Louise January 2023 (has links)
This thesis confronts the ongoing issue of marginalization faced by women in sociologicalresearch, spotlighting the enduring influence of Joan Acker. It underscores Acker's crucial rolewithin sociological research, advocating for her work to be integral to sociology's undergraduatecurriculum. The study uses Brauns and Clarke's reflexive thematic analysis method to scrutinizesociological articles published in 2022 and 2023 that reference Acker's 1990 paper. The studyexplores the contemporary applications of Acker's research, the evolution of her "ideal worker"concept within feminist research, and the impact of the researcher's gender on their engagementwith Acker's research. The thesis is underpinned by a feminist sociological framework that rebutsandrocentric views, with an emphasis on contributions from scholars like Smith, Haraway, andHarding. It utilizes Rossiter's concept of the "Matilda effect" to depict the chronic undervaluationof female scientists' contributions. The study concludes that Acker's 1990 article continues to bea pivotal element in feminist organizational sociology between January 2022 to January 2023,specifically in interpreting and comprehending gendered structures in organizations.Additionally, Acker's "ideal worker" concept remains pertinent for highlighting norm systemsthat disadvantage women within organizations. Significantly, it is found that those who activelydelve into Acker's work are predominantly women. It underscores Acker's crucial role withinsociological research, advocating for her work to be integral to sociology's undergraduatecurriculum.

Det (o)disciplinerade begäret : En komparativ analys av "Den första kärleken" och Charlie med fokus på makt, queer underkastelse och performativitet / The (un)disciplined desire : A comparative analysis of "Den första kärleken" and Charlie examining power, queer subordination and performativity

Lugnet, Em January 2023 (has links)
In this paper, I study the concept of subordination and power by using two Swedish lesbian classic literary texts; ”Den första kärleken”, published in the collection of short stories Berättelser och skizzer (1884) by Mathilda Roos and Charlie (1932) by Margareta Suber. I examine power dynamics and subordination by comparing the two texts with each other and analyze the similarities and differences between subordination in queer contexts and in heterosexual contexts. Judith Butlers theory of subordination and Michel Foucalts theory of the subject and power are the theoretical ground for this paper, as well as the heterosexual script, which function as a way to illustrate what the characters conform to and/or resist against. As a result, I find that queer subordination is more exciting than heterosexual subordination, but also that heterosexual subordination is, although the characters conform to it, a form of resistance against the heterosexual norm. I also find that social punishment is a crucial aspect regarding the choices they make when it comes to queer subordination.

The Problematic British Romantic Hero(ine): the Giaour, Mathilda, and Evelina

Poston, Craig A. (Craig Alan) 05 1900 (has links)
Romantic heroes are questers, according to Harold Bloom and Northrop Frye. Whether employing physical strength or relying on the power of the mind, the traditional Romantic hero invokes questing for some sense of self. Chapter 1 considers this hero-type, but is concerned with defining a non-questing British Romantic hero. The Romantic hero's identity is problematic and established through contrasting narrative versions of the hero. This paper's argument lies in the "inconclusiveness" of the Romantic experience perceived in writings throughout the Romantic period. Romantic inconclusiveness can be found not only in the structure and syntax of the works but in the person with whom the reader is meant to identify or sympathize, the hero(ine). Chapter 2 explores Byron's aesthetics of literature equivocation in The Giaour. This tale is a consciously imbricated text, and Byron's letters show a purposeful complication of the poet's authority concerning the origins of this Turkish Tale. The traditional "Byronic hero," a gloomy, guilt-ridden protagonist, is considered in Chapter 3. Byron's contemporary readers and reviewers were quick to pick up on this aspect of his verse tales, finding in the Giaour, Selim, Conrad, and Lara characteristics of Childe Harold. Yet, Byron's Turkish Tales also reveal a very different and more sentimental hero. Byron seems to play off the reader's expectations of the "Byronic hero" with an ambiguous hero whose character reflects the Romantic aesthetic of indeterminacy. Through the accretive structure of The Giaour, Byron creates a hero of competing component characteristics, a focus he also gives to his heroines. Chapters 4 and 5 address works that are traditionally considered eighteenth-century sentimental novels. Mathilda and Evelina, both epistolary works, present their heroines as worldly innocents who are beset by aggressive males. Yet their subtext suggests that these girls aggressively maneuver the men in their lives. Mathilda and Evelina create a tension between the expected and the radical to energize the reader's imagination.
