Estratégias desconstrutivas: a crítica feminista da representação / Deconstructive strategies: the feminist representational critiqueArruda, Lina Alves 11 October 2013 (has links)
A pesquisa propõe uma revisitação da crítica feminista das políticas de representação considerando a intersecção de seus principais debates e premissas com as críticas contemporâneas às políticas de identidade, sugerindo perspectivas pós-identitárias nas estratégias representativas empregadas por Barbara Kruger, Cindy Sherman, Laurie Simmons e Martha Rosler. Problematizando a tendência da representação de perpetuar na imagética feminista um sujeito fixo e uma categoria estável \"mulher\", atenta-se para a importância da formulação de estratégias artísticas representativas antiessencialistas que evoquem criticamente \"mulheridade\" evitando a reificação da categoria, do sujeito e das estruturas heteronormativas que sustentam o termo. Assim sendo, as análises propostas na pesquisa sugerem que, ao apropriarem-se de imagens de mulheres advindas do repertório dos mass media (revistas, cinema, televisão, anúncios publicitários etc.), as artistas selecionadas proporcionam um olhar crítico à imagética cultural e desestabilizam não somente as retóricas nela historicamente arriagadas, mas também a própria noção de \"mulheridade\" como categoria identitária estável, coerente, natural e universal. / This research provides an analysis based on the intersections between the feminist representational politics critique and the contemporary identity politics critique, suggesting that the strategies employed by Barbara Kruger, Cindy Sherman, Laurie Simmons and Martha Rosler manifest post-identity perspectives. By exposing the representation\'s tendency to perpetuate, in feminist imagery, \"woman\" as a fixed subject and stable category, this research stresses the necessity to elaborate antiessentialist representational artistic strategies that might be able to critically summon \"womanliness\", though avoiding the reification of the same category, subject and heterosexual structures that sustain this term. Therefore, I will argue that by appropriating images of women provided by the cultural imagery (magazines, cinema, television, adds etc.) these artists enable a critical gaze towards this particular visual repertory, destabilizing not only their historically rooted rhetorics, but also the very idea of \"womanliness\" as a stable, coherent, natural and universal identity category.

The image of women in selected Tsonga novelsMathye, Hlamalani Ruth 25 August 2009 (has links)
This dissertation is a critical examination of selected Tsonga novels by male and female writers. Positive and negative images of women by these authors are analysed, compared and evaluated from a feminist perspective.
Emphasis is laid on the manner in which Tsonga writers portray female characters in a changing society and the extent to which the images of women in this literature represent the present day woman. Adherence to ideological, cultural and traditional values as well as the differences in portrayal of women by male and female writers is also investigated.
Through a comparison of novels written by male and female writers it is established that because of patriarchy these writers differ markedly in their portrayal of female characters. In all the novels analysed, the sociol-cultural context influences the way in which these writers portray female characters. Male writers promote traditional values which female writers strive to discard by portraying female characters who predominantly undermine stereotypical cultural sex-roles. / African languages / M.A. (African languages)

From Snow White to Frozen : An evaluation of popular gender representation indicators applied to Disney’s princess films / Från Snövit till Frost : En utvärdering av populära könsrepresentations-indikatorer tillämpade på Disneys prinsessfilmerNyh, Johan January 2015 (has links)
Simple content analysis methods, such as the Bechdel test and measuring percentage of female talk time or characters, have seen a surge of attention from mainstream media and in social media the last couple of years. Underlying assumptions are generally shared with the gender role socialization model and consequently, an importance is stated, due to a high degree to which impressions from media shape in particular young children’s identification processes. For young girls, the Disney Princesses franchise (with Frozen included) stands out as the number one player commercially as well as in customer awareness. The vertical lineup of Disney princesses spans from the passive and domestic working Snow White in 1937 to independent and super-power wielding princess Elsa in 2013, which makes the line of films an optimal test subject in evaluating above-mentioned simple content analysis methods. As a control, a meta-study has been conducted on previous academic studies on the same range of films. The sampled research, within fields spanning from qualitative content analysis and semiotics to coded content analysis, all come to the same conclusions regarding the general changes over time in representations of female characters. The objective of this thesis is to answer whether or not there is a correlation between these changes and those indicated by the simple content analysis methods, i.e. whether or not the simple popular methods are in general coherence with the more intricate academic methods. / <p>Betyg VG (skala IG-VG)</p>
