"Vi är alla migranter i tiden" : En maktanalys av Mohsin Hamids Exit väst och romanens didaktiska potential / "We are all migrants through time" : A Power Analysis of Mohsin Hamid's Exit West and its Didactical PotentialStanic, Sofija January 2021 (has links)
Syftet med följande studie är att med utgångspunkt i en maktanalys av Mohsin HamidsExit väst undersöka romanens didaktiska potential i svenskämnet och i skolans värdegrundsarbete. Studien refererar till Martha C. Nussbaums teori kring den narrativa fantasin och interkulturell pedagogik som didaktiska verktyg vid arbete med romanen.Exit väst skildrar de utmaningar och svårigheter som flyktingar och immigranter kan uppleva i västvärlden. Genom en maktanalys blir de orättvisa och negativa maktdynamiker som skildras i romanen tydliga. Studien vill visa att eleverna kan utveckla ett empatiskt och emotionellt förhållningssätt till karaktärerna och deras erfarenheter genom narrativa fantasi. Detta i sin tur kan vidga elevernas förståelse för olika människor och deras skilda livsvillkor. Exit väst öppnar även upp för interkulturell undervisning i svenskämnet och i värdegrundsarbetet. Studien visar att det finns didaktisk potential i användningen av romanen i litteraturundervisning för att uppfylla kursmål och värdegrundsarbete.

In love and war : the politics of romance in four 21st-century Pakistani novelsDuce, Cristy Lee January 2011 (has links)
Writers of fiction have long since relied on love, romance, and desire to drive the
plots of their work, yet some postcolonial authors use romance and interpersonal
relationships to illustrate the larger political and social forces that affect their relatively
marginalized experiences in a global context. To illustrate this literary strategy, I have
chosen to discuss four novels written in the twenty-first century by Pakistani authors: Tbe
Reluctant Fundamentalist by Mohsin Hamid, Trespassing by Uzma Aslam Khan, The
Wasted Vigil by Nadeem Aslam, and Burnt Shadows by Kamila Shamsie. With the
geographical origin of these writers as a common starting place from which to compare
and contrast their perspectives on global politics, their understandings of gender, and
their perceptions of how the public and the private constitute and intersect each other, I
will use postcolonial theory to dissect the treatment of romance in their respective novels. / v, 85 leaves ; 29 cm

Representation and identity in the wake of 9/11 : Khaled Hosseini’s The kite runner, Mohsin Hamid’s The reluctant fundamentalist, Frédéric Beigbeder’s Windows on the world and Don DeLillo’s Falling manAndrews, Grant 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MA (English))--University of Stellenbosch, 2010. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis explores the themes of representation and identity in four post-9/11 novels: Khaled
Hosseini’s The Kite Runner, Mohsin Hamid’s The Reluctant Fundamentalist, Frédéric
Beigbeder’s Windows on the World and Don DeLillo’s Falling Man.
The novels of Hosseini and Hamid represent the experience of two Muslim protagonists from
Afghanistan and Pakistan who immigrate to the US. The protagonists offer two contrasting
understandings of fundamentalism, using this lens to understand the terrorist figure and
American society respectively. The construction of power for both the American society and the
terrorist is argued to be located in images which are linked to masculinity: money, sport,
militancy, sex and religious devotion. The personal experiences of these protagonists reflect the
political circumstances which they encounter, and both characters identify with national
identities in ways which relate to their readings of representations of identity and news media.
Beigbeder and DeLillo’s novels are discussed using the theme of trauma. The novels portray the
experiences of American characters who are confronted with 9/11 and suffer from disorientation
and loss. The negotiation of this loss takes place in relation to entanglements with the terrorist
figure, who penetrates the physical and psychological spaces of these characters. Images of
masculinity are evoked in order to signify this loss of power, where the destabilising of the
paternal role is linked to the pervasive sense of vulnerability which the characters experience
after the attacks. Memorials and rituals become ways of dealing with disorientation. The two
novels unsettle the distinction between terrorist and terrorised in order to negotiate a new
American identity after 9/11. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie tesis ondersoek temas van representasie en identiteit in vier post-9/11 romans, naamlik
Khaled Hosseini se The Kite Runner, Mohsin Hamid se The Reluctant Fundamentalist, Frédéric
Beigbeder se Windows on the World en Don DeLillo se Falling Man.
Hosseini en Hamid se romans verbeeld die ervarings van twee Muslim-protagoniste,
onderskeidelik afkomstig van Afghanistan en Pakistan wat na die VSA immigreer. Hierdie
protagoniste verbeeld twee uiteenlopende beskouïngs van fundamentalisme wat gevolglik
aangewend word om die terroris-figuur en die Amerikaanse gemeenskap te verstaan. Die
konstruksie van mag vir die Amerikaanse gemeenskap en die terroris-figuur word getoon, is
geleë in beelde wat verband hou met manlikheid, naamlik geld, sport, militarisme, seks en
toegewydheid. Die persoonlike ervarings van hierdie protagoniste weerspieël die politieke
omstandighede waarmee hulle kennis maak. Beide hierdie karakters vereenselwig hulself met
nasionale identiteite op grond van hul begrip van representasie van identiteit en die media.
Beigbeder en DeLillo se romans word volgens die tema van trauma vergelyk. Hierdie romans
beeld die ervarings van Amerikaanse karakters wat met 9/11 gekonfronteer word en met
disoriëntasie en verlies worstel, uit. Die oorweging van hierdie verlies vind plaas in verhouding
tot ontmoetings met die terroris-figuur wat die fisiese en psigiese ruimtes van hierdie karakters
binnedring. Voorstellings van manlikheid word opgeroep om die verlies van mag ten toon te stel.
Hierdie verlies van mag word gekenmerk deur die destabilisering van die vaderlike rol tesame
met die diepgaande sin van weerloosheid wat die karakters na die aanval ervaar. Gedenktekens
en rituele word vervolgens instellings om met die disoriëntasie om te gaan. Uiteindelik
problematiseer die twee romans die onderskeid tussen terroris en geterroriseerde om sodoende ’n
nuwe Amerikaanse identiteit ná 9/11 tot stand te bring.

Hong Kong cinema 1982-2002 : the quest for identity during transitionCheung, Wai Yee Ruby January 2008 (has links)
This thesis seeks to interpret the cinematic representations of Hong Kongers’ identity quest during a transitional state/stage related to the sovereignty transfer. The Handover transition considered is an ideological one, rather than the overnight polity change on the Handover day. This research approaches contemporary Hong Kong cinema on two fronts and the thesis is structured accordingly: Upon an initial review of the existing Hong Kong film scholarship in the Introduction, and its 1997-related allegorical readings, Part I sees new angles (previously undeveloped or underdeveloped) for researching Hong Kong films made during 1982-2002. Arguments are built along the ideas of Hong Kongers’ situational, diasporic consciousness, and transformed ‘Chineseness’ because Hong Kong has lacked a cultural/national centrality. This part of research is informed by the ideas of Jacques Derrida, Homi Bhabha and Stuart Hall, and the diasporic experiences of Ien Ang, Rey Chow and Ackbar Abbas. With these new research angles and references to the circumstances, Part II reads critically the text of eight Hong Kong films made during the Handover transition. In chronological order, they are Boat People (Hui, 1982), Song of the Exile (Hui, 1990), Days of Being Wild (Wong, 1990), Happy Together (Wong, 1997), Made in Hong Kong (Chan, 1997), Ordinary Heroes (Hui, 1999), Durian Durian (Chan, 2000), and Hollywood Hong Kong (Chan, 2002). They meet several criteria related to the undeveloped / underdeveloped areas in the existing Hong Kong film scholarship. Hamid Naficy’s ‘accented cinema’ paradigm gives the guidelines to the film analysis in Part II. This part shows that Hong Kongers’ self-transformation during transition is alterable, indeterminate, and interminable, due to the people’s situational, diasporic consciousness, and transformed ‘Chineseness’. This thesis thus contributes to Hong Kong cinema scholarship in interpreting films with new research angles, and generating new insights into this cinematic tradition and its wider context.

Empire of the Hajj: Pilgrims, Plagues, and Pan-Islam under British Surveillance,1865-1926Low, Michael Christopher 16 July 2007 (has links)
From roughly 1865 to 1926, the forces of European imperialism brought the Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca under the scrutiny of non-Muslim interests. The driving force behind this dramatic change was the expansion of the British Empire’s maritime supremacy in the Indian Ocean basin. With the development of steamship travel and the opening of the Suez Canal, colonial authorities became increasingly involved in the surveillance of seaborne pilgrims. During this period, the hajj came to be recognized as both the primary conduit for the spread of epidemic diseases, such as cholera and plague, and a critical outlet for the growth of Pan-Islamic networks being forged between Indian dissidents, pilgrims, and the Ottoman Empire. As a result, the British and Ottoman empires engaged in a struggle for control of the hajj, which would ultimately reshape both the hajj and the political landscapes of the Middle East and South Asia.
