2	En ekogotisk läsning av tre noveller av Daphne du Maurier / An ecogothic reading of three short stories written by Daphne du Maurier Zels, Emma Lovisa January 2022 (has links) Denna kandidatuppsats utforskar de tre skräcknovellerna ”Fåglarna” (1952), ”De blå linserna” (1959) och ”Äppelträdet” (1952) av Daphne du Maurier ur ett ekogotiskt perspektiv. Genom att använda begreppet ekogotik i kombination med teorier så som Simon C. Estoks ekofobi och Sigmund Freuds det kusliga undersöker denna uppsats relationer mellan mänskligt och icke-mänskligt, samt hur naturen kan användas för att framkalla känslor av det kusliga. Resultatet av analyserna visar bland annat att naturen är ett utmärkt verktyg att använda för att synliggöra det kusliga då den är ständigt närvarande i våra liv, och därför till synes också ”osynlig” för oss. Resultatet visar också att omkullkastandet av den antropocentriska relationen mellan mänskligt och icke-mänskligt är av stor vikt för novellernas förmåga att framkalla skräck. antropocentrism Daphne du Maurier De blå linserna det kusliga ekofobi ekogotik Fåglarna gotisk litteratur Äppelträdet General Literature Studies Litteraturvetenskap
3	Kvinnlig vänskap i Gotisk Litteratur : En komperativ studie av Gillian Flynns Gone Girl och Daphne du Mauriers Rebecca / Female Friendship in Gothic Literature : A Comparative Study of Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl and Daphne du Maurier's Rebecca Holmestrand, Wilma January 2021 (has links) The aim of this essay is to investigate the meaning and importance of the female friendship within Ellen Moers tradition and theory regarding the female gothic. In this essay, I argue that the female friendship has played an important role in the portrayal of the Gothic fiction as socially critical of women’s position in the society, mainly by examining the two works Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier and Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn. The essay is also interested in how the female gothic has developed over time and whether the notion can be applied while analysing more contemporary gothic, and thus, considers the works’ different time periods.

4	Hennes namn var Carmila : En queerteoretisk analys av Joseph Sheridan Le Fanus novell Carmilla / Her name was Carmilla : A queer theoretical analysis of Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu’s short novel Carmilla Issa, Alexandra January 2016 (has links) This dissertation is a text analysis of the short novel Carmilla (1872) by the Irish ghost story-author Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu. It is a close reading analysis where I apply a queer theoretical perspective using Mia Franck’s model to analyze different silence practices in Carmilla. I focus on the female vampire Carmilla and her companion Laura and how they are portrayed in this short novel. I will ask the questions: do the characters Carmilla and Laura show a non-heterosexual relationship, passion and desire? How do they depart from the gender norm and can they be seen as characters who deviate from what society considers ‘normal’ behaviour? And can Carmilla and Laura’s relationship be seen as an example of silenced homosexuality and in what way is it expressed? Carmilla and Laura’s behaviour can certainly be described as queer and it is effective to examine the novella using silence practices through a queer perspective. Many of the practices are written silences. Mostly, its things that the reader realizes before the storyteller Laura does herself. They reveal numerous oddities in the story, taking the form of narrative, camouflaged, performative, ritualized and existential silences. Prominent examples are the way Carmilla hides both her vampiric and lesbian sides which Laura is repelled at in addition to her own lustful and passionate emotions. As a future teacher, one of my most important jobs will be to educate my pupils about democratic values and that all kinds of discrimination should be discouraged. An essay of this sort is one way to educate them in how gender and sexuality can be seen from historical, political and cultural perspectives.
