Bibliotekarien och boktipset : En normkritisk studie av bibliotekariers upplevelser av mötet med barn i biblioteksrummetHellgren, Sanna January 2016 (has links)
The aim of this study is to examine how norms about gender are constructed in the meeting with the library user as experienced by the librarian, with a focus on recommendation of books as a social practice. Questions that the study asks are if the librarians experience that norm critical notions are expressed in the meeting with the user, if the book recommendation as a social practice can strengthen and/or challenge norms and if the library as a room, what it contains and how it is structured, can affect the book recommendation as a social practice where norms are constructed or questioned. The study conducts interviews with six librarians who work with children’s literature, and parts of the interviews were done while walking through the children’s section at the participants libraries to respond to the question about how the room affects the book recommendation as a social practice. The theoretical framework that has been used consists of Connell’s theory about masculinity and Hirdman’s theory about the gender system and its gender contract. The results of the study shows that norms about gender are constructed in the book recommendation meeting with the library user, as experienced by the librarian, and it exists a gender contract at the library that contributes to reproduce a distinction between boys and girls. In the analysis a masculine reading hierarchy-model with three stages are presented, to understand how masculinity norms and the gender system affect boys reading habits, but also how the library room can affect it.

In this Master's Thesis a rhetorical analysis is applied to reading suggestions in the database Boktips.net. Boktips.net utilize the Internet for readers advisory by offering public libraries in Sweden to use and participate to its contents. The aim is to examine how library staff writes about literature in Boktips.net. The empirical material is delimited to reading suggestions on fiction for adults. Areas in focus of the analysis are rhetorical context, disposition, style and components from the point of view of content: summary, evaluation on portrayal of characters and setting, narrative, language use, genre and themes, entertainment, insights and external information. The writers generally use a well-reasoned disposition of the texts and several of them apply diverse stylistic devises that make for the intelligibility and aesthetic qualities of the texts. A width of aspects of the books is frequently covered. In rhetorical perspective nonetheless some texts contain problems of covering only few aspects of the books, lacking in argumentation or not completing the lines of arguments. It is concluded that reading suggestions are of help to library users if made well known. Research showing that readers choose books based on sought after reading experience, together with rhetorical techniques, are used to draw a picture of what the reading suggestions might include and in what way, with emphasize given on writing both personally and professionally. Argumentation is conducted for providing recommendations on writing and opportunity for discussion among the writers to help them improve. / Uppsatsnivå: D

”Det är lite som att handla smågodis” : En undersökning om var vuxna läsare hittar sina boktips / ”It’s a bit like buying pick’n mix” : A study about where adult readers find their book tipsHermansson, Jessica January 2019 (has links)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to investigate how readers go about selecting fiction in their everyday life. The aims are to get information on where readers get their information regarding which books to read in their everyday life, which sources they use and why they use those sources. The study focuses on readers who are 18+ and that practice leisure reading in their everyday life. The research questions are: What sources do adult readers use to find book tips? How do grown up readers describe and motivate the sources they use to find book tips? The methodology used is qualitative semi-structured interviews with eight adult readers. The theoretical framework used in the study comes from Kirsty Williamson’s theory of the role of incidental information acquisition in regards to the everyday life information needs and seeking. The results of the study show that the majority of the participating readers’ sources for their everyday life information seeking align with earlier studies. From the perspective of Williamson’s theory readers use sources such as family and friends which are categorized as intimate personal networks, social media, blogs and book clubs which falls under broader personal networks, mass media such as news paper, hash tags, TV and internet, and institutional sources such as the library and book shops.

Mellan individen och yrkesrollen : En stilistisk analys av litteraturkritik / Between the individual and the professional role : A stylistic analysis of literary criticismQuintili, Aurora Elisabeth January 2019 (has links)
Denna studies syfte är att analysera ett flertal litteraturkritiska verk från ett språkligt perspektiv. En stilistisk analys har utförts, och jag har därmed fördjupat mig i aspekter som är grundläggande för att identifiera en texts stilistiska drag, med fokus på lexikala och syntaktiska aspekter. De kanaler som tas upp är Goodreads.com, två bokbloggar och två tidningar. Tesen som denna studie grundar sig på är att texternas språkliga innehåll och framförallt svårighetsgrad påverkas av författare och spridningskanal. För att utföra studien har jag använt mig av totalt sex litteraturkritiska verk som handlar om två romaner skrivna av debutanter. Det som är studiens primära avsikt är att sätta de identifierade stilistiska drag i relation till texternas författare samt vilken kanal som varit huvudsaklig för att sprida texten vidare. Analysens struktur har som syfte att visa på skillnader och likheter både mellan kritiska verk skrivna för samma kanal och för olika kanaler. Studiens resultat pekar på att faktorer såsom författare och spridningskanal påverkar språket på ett sätt som har inverkan på texternas stilistiska drag. Därmed är slutsatsen att en recensions stil påverkas av vem det är som skriver recensionen och vilka kanaler används för att sprida recensionen vidare.
