En kulturpsykologisk analys av kvinnorollen inom Bénin och Togos Vodoukult. (What happened to the daughters of the Leopard? A cultural psychological analysis of the role of women in Bénin and Togo´s Vodoucult). Syftet med studien var att öka förståelsen för hur Vodoukulten kan bidra till hur kvinnorollen uttrycks och manifesteras. Det uppnåddes genom kvinnornas och andra utövares berättelser, samt iakttagelser av hur rollen uttrycktes i kulten och om det bidrog till eller frigjorde kvinnorna från etablerade könsroller. Studien utgick från Kvale & Brinkmanns intervjumetodik. Intervjuerna med informanterna och observationerna var viktiga för förståelsen av hur kulturen formade deltagarnas uppfattning om sig själv, samhället och religionen. Undersökningen utgick från Belzens tolkning av kulturpsykologi, Bourdieus teori om habitus, samt Lacans symbolic order. Studien tar också upp genus som Sky definierar den. Slutsatsen blev att kvinnor bidrar till formandet av sin roll inom Vodoun och att Vodoun är rigid när det kommer till könsroller.

3	"At Home in My Father's World" : A Lacanian Psychoanalysis and Feminist Criticism on Scout Finch’s Identity and the Pursuit of the Symbolic Order Bantilan, Rona Grace January 2024 (has links) This paper takes a psychoanalytic approach to analyse the protagonist Scout Finch’s identity formation and her rebellion against social expectations of femininity. Her aggressiveness plays a central role in her character development, reflecting Maycomb’s societal struggle in dealing with discontent in its social, political, and economic situations. Understanding the dynamics behind her aggression and life choices is examined through Lacanian concepts of lack and desire in the context of the Imaginary and Symbolic Order. Her desires are substantiated explicitly and implicitly through her pursuit of emulating the father figure—the Symbolic Order, and the aggressiveness in her behaviour stems from the premature severance from the Imaginary Order, which parallels the defeat that Maycomb experienced in the American Civil War. As a result, Scout Finch’s identity is heavily influenced by the values and ideologies of the father figure, as well as the social conventions dictated by her society.

4	Towards a Lacanian methodology for analyzing extra-analytic textual material. Apteker, R. L. 14 April 2011 (has links) This research report presents a pilot study exploring the possibility of applying a Lacanian clinical methodology for analyzing unconscious dynamics in extra-analytic material. This research initially investigates the legitimacy and utility of this endeavour, followed by immersion in Lacanian thinking and the subsequent selection of potentially relevant data sets; samples of extra-analytic textual material. As this stage a recursive interaction between reading Lacanian theory and reflecting on the text is enacted. Five Lacanian concepts are identified (mirror phase, the three orders of the imaginary, the symbolic and the real, as well as the paternal agency). Although these concepts are, in process inextricable from another, they are presented as though discrete entities given that this allows for the foregrounding of different aspects in the process. The interaction between these concepts is considered with respect to Lacan‟s requirement in clinical practice of a tentative preliminary diagnosis of the patient into one of three diagnostic categories; perversion, neurosis and psychosis. Consequently, in a step that mirrors the clinical process, the textual subject of the data sets is tentatively classified as a (Lacanian) psychotic whose characteristic psychic structure is constituted out of foreclosure. Ways of discerning this structure in textual matter outside of the analytic setting are then considered. Four ways are proposed here. These are the unified or unbounded use of personal pronouns; evidence of thinking towards resolution or disintegration; denial or tolerance of difference and fourthly, the manifestation of regressive or libidinal speech actions. These four provide the basis for approaching the analysis of the selected data sets, which consist of carefully selected instances of Jacob Zuma‟s ostensibly unscripted public utterances. It is proposed that the four ways identified can be used in the analysis of other extra-analytic material.

The work subverts the symbolic order by repurposing everyday forms and objects, allowing us to see the familiar as new, and thereby awakening us to what may be possible to formulate a better, more beautiful, more universally connected order. future worlds optimistic worlds symbolic order functional fixedness miniature worlds sculptural cities Art and Design Art Practice Fine Arts Sculpture
6	Männliche Herrschaft Heitzmann, Daniela 26 April 2017 (has links) Männliche Herrschaft ist ein soziologisches Konzept von Pierre Bourdieu zur Untersuchung der sozialen und symbolischen Kräfteverhältnisse zwischen den Geschlechtern. Das Konzept entwickelt Bourdieu auf der Grundlage ethnologischer Studien zur kabylischen Gesellschaft, die er in den 1960er Jahren in Algerien durchführte. Bourdieu zeigt dabei, wie der Habitus vergeschlechtlichte Konstruktionen der Welt und des Körpers erzeugt, indem er als Speicher von vergeschlechtlichten Wahrnehmungs- und Bewertungskategorien und Schemata fungiert. Mit dem Konzept der Männlichen Herrschaft hat Bourdieu einen analytischen Schwerpunkt auf das Zusammenspiel von Habitus und symbolischer Ordnung gelegt, dessen Resultat die scheinbar binäre und natürliche Geschlechtereinteilung ist.

Uppsatsen undersöker subjektets förutsättningar och möjligheter utifrån lacansk teori, samt vilka implikationer det får på symptomets plats inom klinisk diagnostik. Metoden använder lacanskt teori som beskrivningar av subjektets status, vars framställning abstraheras till en rad regler. Teorins giltighet prövas i uppsatsen mot kliniska fallbeskrivningar och andra exempelfall. I diskussionen framkommer att implikationen av den lacanska teorin om subjektet är vittgående vad gäller kliniskt diagnostik och värderingen av symptomet. / The essay explores the human psyche by the French psychoanalyst and psychiatrist Jacques Lacan's psychoanalytic theory. The essay examines the subject's conditions and possibilities based on Lacanian theory, and what implications it has on symptom location in clinical diagnostics. The method uses Lacanian theory and descriptions of the subject's status, the production of which is abstracted to a set of rules. The theory's validity tested in the paper on clinical case reports and other such cases. In the discussion it will be the implication of the Lacanian theory of the subject is extensive in terms of clinical diagnosis and evaluation of the symptom.

10	Imagining the Afro-Uruguayan Conventillo: Belonging and the Fetish of Place and Blackness Sztainbok, V. 08 March 2011 (has links) This thesis explores the symbolic place occupied by a racialized neighbourhood within the Uruguayan national imaginary. I study the conventillos (tenement buildings) of two traditionally Afro-Uruguayan neighbourhoods in Montevideo, Barrio Sur and Palermo. These neighbourhoods are considered the cradle of Afro-Uruguayan culture and identity. The conventillos have been immortalized in paintings, souvenirs, songs, and books. Over the years most of the residents were evicted due to demolitions, which peaked during Uruguay’s military dictatorship (1973-1984). I address the paradox of how a community can be materially marginalized, yet symbolically celebrated, a process that is evident in other American nations (Brazil, Colombia, etc.). I show how race, class, and gender are entangled in folkloric depictions of the conventillo to constitute a limited notion of blackness that naturalizes the relationship between Afro-Uruguayans, music, sexuality, and domestic work. The folklorization of the space and it residents is shown to be a “fetishization” which enhances the whiteness of the national identity, while confining the parameters of black citizenship and belonging. Utilizing a methodology that draws on cultural geography, critical race, postcolonial, and feminist theory, my dissertation analyzes the various ways that the Barrio Sur/Palermo conventillo has been imagined, represented, and experienced. Specifically, I examine 1) autobiographical, literary and popular (media, songs) narratives about these neighbourhoods; 2) the depiction of the conventillo by a prominent artist (Carlos Páez Vilaró); 3) spatial practices; 4) the performance of a dancer who emerged from the conventillo to become a national icon (the Carnival vedette Rosa Luna); and 5) interviews with nine key informants. My analysis focuses on how bodies, subjects, and national belonging are constituted through relations to particular spaces. By foregrounding the “geographies of identity” (Radcliffe and Westwood, 1996, p. 27), I show that the symbolic celebration of black space goes hand in hand with material disavowal. This study thus connects the imagining of a local, racialized space to how national belonging is constituted and experienced.
