Vad spelar det för roll? Det är bara materia : En ekokritisk litteraturstudie av Kazuo Ishiguros Klara och solen / What does it matter? It’s just matter : An ecocritical literature study of Kazuo Ishiguro’s Klara and the SunFred, Emma, Larsson, Paula January 2022 (has links)
Bakgrund: I takt med en allt mer alarmerande klimatkris finns ett ökat intresse för att studera litterära texter utifrån ett ekokritiskt litteraturperspektiv (Brudin Borg, Bruhn& Wingård, 2022, s. 7). Att läsa litteratur utifrån ett sådant perspektiv sätter det ickemänskliga i fokus och kan därigenom bidra till en ökad medvetenhet om samt ett ökat intresse för frågor som rör klimat och miljö (Löwe & Nilsson Skåve, 2020, s. 7). Studien är därmed aktuell för såväl lärarprofessionen som för människor i en pågående klimatkris. Syfte: Studiens syfte är att visa hur berättandet i romanen Klara och solen (2021) kan förstås ur ett ekokritiskt litteraturperspektiv. Vår förhoppning är att därigenom bidra till såväl nya perspektiv på romanen som till det växande ekokritiska fältet. Metod: För att åstadkomma en läsning som är frigjord från ett antropocentriskt perspektiv i den mån det är möjligt när läses romanen med en uppmärksam läsning i syfte att ta in det icke-mänskliga. Resultat: Studien visar att former och föremål är centrala för Klaras berättande då hon återkommande riktar uppmärksamheten mot dessa. Såväl marken och gräset som föremålen kan sägas ha agens eftersom de påverkar Klaras berättande och är självständiga i den meningen att de agerar utan mänsklig inblandning samt fyller ett syfte i sig självt. Materia intra-agerar och föremålen vibrerar. Detta skiljer föremålen från Solen som inte har ett eget värde, utan figurerar främst som ett medel för att hjälpa människan och människans robot. Därför är Klaras berättande av Solen antropocentriskt.

The Great Okonkwo´s Demise : A Feminist and Postcolonial Literary Analysis of the Concept of Emasculation in Things Fall ApartPårs, Joakim January 2019 (has links)
As the title suggests, this essay is a feminist and postcolonial literary analysis of the main character Okonkwo´s downfall and demise in acclaimed author Chinua Achebe´s 1958 novel, Things Fall Apart. A recurrent theme within the narrative is the concept of gender differences and gender roles, in the strict traditional and patriarchal system which serves as the setting of the narrative. Okonkwo, who is a traditional and proud Igbo man, has an aversion toward what is considered to be weak and feminine. Okonkwo is therefore struck with depression when he finds himself in a weak and helpless position, as well as emasculated emotional state of mind. Furthermore, Okonkwo becomes a victim to colonialism in the latter part of the narrative, which consequently adds to his already helpless and emasculated state of mind. The purpose with this essay is therefore to investigate if feelings of emasculation are the cause for Okonkwo´s final decision to end his own life. Based upon the analysis included in this essay, one of the conclusions that could be drawn was that the helplessness and feelings of emasculation Okonkwo experiences within the narrative are too much for him to cope with and therefore cause his downfall and demise.

Innocence and Experience : Deconstructing Blake's “Two Contrary States of the Human Soul”Lundström, Johanna January 2019 (has links)
This essay analyzes poems and deconstructs binary oppositions in William Blake's Songs of Innocence and of Experience. By analyzing a number of poems, the essay exemplifies how Blake not only creates binary oppositions, but how he also deconstructs them. The essay focuses on the central binary opposition of innocence and experience, but also shows different binary oppositions to further show how Blake is setting up and deconstructing binary oppositions. The essay will argue that Blake can be considered an early deconstructionist due to his use of binary oppositions, as well as Blake intentionally creates binary oppositions.

Niceville för en demokratisk grundsyn -en analys hur ett skönlitterärt verk förhåller sig till skolans uppdrag attförmedla en demokratisk grundsynRamberg, Nathalie January 2019 (has links)
The Swedish school system rests on the same democratic values as the Swedish society. It is also known that the school shall reflect the society and mediate the same values to the student. This means that Swedish schools has an important mission to mediate democratic values through the education. The aim of this study was to analyse if the literary work Niceville by Kathryn Stockett can be discussed in relation to this democratic mission, and if the book’s theme and motifs can be used in the Swedish education to mediate democratic values. Two questions were developed to answer the aim of the study: • What theme and motifs does the literary work Niceville contain and how do they relate to the school’s mission to mediate democratic values? • What didactic inputs are suitable in the aim to, through the literary work, mediate the democratic values to the students? The method I used to answer these questions was close reading. This means that I did a close reading of the literary work to analyse what theme and motifs it contained. I also used the theory intersectional to more easily find out the theme and motifs. My results show that the literary work Niceville can be used in Swedish education to mediate the democratic values of Swedish society. The work gives the student examples of how nondemocratic values affect individuals in a negative way which indicate that democratic values are preferable. Earlier studies show that reading fiction also trains the human in democratic thinking which means that it trains the reader to empathize and understand other people. This however needs to be problematized since teachers serve a significant role in making sure that every student understand the book´s message by its theme and motif. Also, the students motivation can affect the aim to mediate democratic values.

Iron Maiden, Coleridge, and the Ancient Mariner : A comparative analysis of stylistics in Iron Maiden's and Coleridge's The Rime of the Ancient MarinerEngdahl, Max January 2019 (has links)
This essay is a comparative analysis of stylistics in Iron Maiden’s adaptation of Samuel T. Coleridge’s Rime of the ancient mariner. The essay employs the following concepts: the poetic function of language, the referential function of language, parallelism, and meter to investigate stylistic differences and conformity between the two texts. Furthermore, the essay also discusses how the stylistic elements affect meaning, especially regarding the theme of sin and redemption, and the extent to which the meaning of Iron Maiden’s text conforms to, differs from, or is informed by Coleridge’s poem.
