The Postmigrant Author in the Danish Media : A Critical Discourse Analysis of the Danish Media’s Portrayal of the Postmigrant Author

Chihanne El Bahraoui Straagaard, Maria January 2023 (has links)
This study investigates the portrayal of three postmigrant authors in the Danish media. By critically analyzing 12 articles, the study explores the characteristic features of the media’s portrayal of the authors. The theoretical concepts postmigration and Nordic whiteness are applied to demonstrate how the 12 articles are portraying the three authors as non-white others. This portrayal is constructed by highlighting the authors non-white physical features and connecting them to the “ghetto”. This ultimately results in a migrantization of the authors and reproduces the “us” and “them” division, in the Danish postmigrant society. Thus, this study contributes to the academic research on postmigrant literature in Scandinavia by providing insights into the role of the media in relation to the literary trend of postmigrant literature. Further on, this thesis is a part of the academic tradition of critical whiteness studies in a Nordic context as well as in IMER studies.   Keywords: Postmigration literature, Denmark, media, whiteness, postmigrant authors
