11	Dagsversens politiska innebörd : hur dagsvers skapar betydelse / The Politics of Newspaper Poems : On the Production of Meaning in Newspaper Poems Sjösten, John January 2019 (has links) This study investigates the production of political meaning in the Scandinavian tradition of the dagsvers (newspaper poem), that is a particular kind of poetry published in daily newspapers, commenting on public debates and recent events. The dagsvers is a neglected literary genre in the history of Swedish literature. The often explicit political stance and message of the dagsvers separate this genre from many other forms of modern and contemporary poetry, and the present study focuses on this political dimension. I examine the uses of forms, themes and symbols in dagsvers published between 1949 and 2013 that give the poems their meaning and their political dimension. Furthermore, I analyse how the very newspaper medium contributes to and directs the interpretation of the poems. The main questions pertain to how context, such as the newspaper´s political agenda, and elements in the text create the meaning and function of the dagsvers. Analysing verse examples with the help of theories of Jacques Rancière and Lars Furuland, the study demonstrates how the context and the literary forms, themes and symbols impact the shape of the political dimension of the dagsvers.

12	En dröm i Lagarnas hus : Ögonblicket, människan och det transcendenta. Studier i Stig Dagermans diktning / A Dream in the House of Law : The Moment, Man and the Transcendent: Studies in the Writings of Stig Dagerman Apelgren, Rikard January 2010 (has links) The main aim of the dissertation is to examine the importance of the moment in relation to human experience and to the narrative in the writings of Stig Dagerman (1923-1954), primarily the novels Ormen (The Snake, 1945), De dömdas ö (The Island of the Doomed, 1946), Bränt barn (A Burnt Child, 1948), Bröllopsbesvär (Wedding Worries, 1949), the short stories "Den hängdes träd" (The Hanging Tree, 1945) and "De röda vagnarna" (The Red Wagons, 1946). The dissertation shows the moment as being of crucial importance by serving as the point of time for the fictional character’s critical experience. The moment also functions as a structuring principle for the narrative. In this, the discussion is supported by the theories on the chronotope found in the work of Mikhail Bakhtin. With the ideas of Michael Riffaterre as the principal theoretical basis in the study, the reading of the texts focuses on a matrix common to the works discussed. The reading goes from a description of the primarily profane subject matter of the narrative to an understanding of the religious discourse in the works. This interpretation receives additional support in the theories on religious and mystical experiences found in Rudolf Otto. Finally, the dissertation focuses on man’s sensitivity to, and longing for, a transcendental entity or a God in the broadest sense – a longing which manifests itself in different ways in these texts and is set against the human predicament of being. Man’s desperate religious longing for a transcendental entity or a God are ultimately understood as the significance or principle of unity in the texts under discussion.

13	Herr nollochsåvidare : En studie av subjektet i Gösta Oswalds En privatmans vedermödor Mellgren, Carl January 2023 (has links) This is an essay about the swedish modernist writer and poet Gösta Oswald’s novel En privatmans vedermödor. The essay focuses on the question about how he uses the modernist language to portray the subject and main character Mr O. Oswald’s novel and his portrayal of the subject is compared and contrasted to earlier ideas about the subject in the modernist and pessimistic traditions presented by philosophers, e g Friedrich Nietzsche. Oswald’s literary style and ideas are also compared to his contemporary modernist writers, for instance Stig Dagerman. Through a psychoanalytical reading of Oswald’s novel using mostly Jacques Lacan’s theories about language the essay argues that it is a story about the nothingness of the subject. It’s also argued that the environment in the novel and Oswald’s use of mythological and classical motifs from Orpheus, Virgil and Dante enhances the themes of nothingness and the bleak outlook on life in the nihilistic post World War II cultural climate. / <p>Slutgiltigt godkännandedatum: 2023-05-30</p> Gösta Oswald Jacques Lacan Friedrich Nietzsche Birgitta Holm Stig Dagerman modernism pessimism nihilism General Literature Studies Litteraturvetenskap
14	Dagermans arbetande män : En marxistisk och maskulinitetsteoretisk analys av Stig Dagermans Streber / Dagerman's Working Men : A Marxist and Masculinity Theoretical Analysis of Streber by Stig Dagerman Nilsson, Emilia January 2021 (has links) Uppsatsen undersöker hur marxistiska och maskulinitetsteoretiska maktstrukturer påverkar relationerna mellan de fyra huvudkaraktärerna i Stig Dagermans dramatext Streber. Karaktärerna analyseras utifrån texten i Judasdramer från 1949. Analysen utgår ifrån repliker, karaktärsbeskrivningar och scenanvisningar. I uppsatsen analyseras hierarkiska positioner utifrån den marxistiska teorin med fokus på klasstillhörighet och socioekonomiska förutsättningar, följt av maskulinitetsteorin med fokus på maskulinitetstyper samt maskulinitetsnormer. De bägge analysperspektivens resultat sammanförs i ett intersektionellt perspektiv och används för att placera in karaktärerna i schematiska modeller. Dramat har inför analysen delats in i tre delar vilket innebär att man genom analysen följer karaktärernas utveckling genom tre olika schematiska modeller. De schematiska modellerna och analyserade exemplen visar slutligen hur olika ekonomiska, sociala och könsrelaterade maktfaktorer påverkar relationerna mellan dramats huvudkaraktärer samt deras relationer till övriga av dramats karaktärer.
