Annotation:

Within late twentieth and early twenty-first century children’s literature there is a significant interest amongst authors and readers for material which recreates the Arthurian myth. Many of these draw on medieval texts, and the canonical texts of the English tradition have been particularly influential. Yet within this intertextual discourse the influence of the Victorian works is noticeable. This thesis explores the relationship between contemporary children’s Arthuriana and the gendered and national ideologies of these earlier works. Using feminist critical discourse analysis, it discusses the evolution of Arthuriana for the child reader, with a particular focus on four contemporary texts: Michael Morpurgo’s (1994) Arthur, High King of Britain, Mary Hoffman’s (2000) Women of Camelot: Queens and Enchantresses at the Court of King Arthur, Diana Wynne Jones’ (1993) Hexwood and the BBC series Merlin (2008-2012). Exploring the historicist and fantasy genres opens up a discourse surrounding the psychology of myth which within the context of Arthurian literature creates a sense of a universal ‘truth’. This work reveals that authorial intent, in both historicist and fantasy narratives, is often undercut by implicit ideologies which reveal unconscious cultural assumptions. The cultural context at the time of textual production and consumption affects the representations of both the ideologies of gender and nation and yet the authority of myth and history combine to create a regressive depiction more in keeping with literature from the Victorian and post-World War II eras. This is explored through a review of the literature for children available since the Age of Reason, and the didactic model which has been prevalent throughout the Arthurian genre. This thesis explores why a regressive representation is appealing within a twenty-first century discourse through an engagement with theories of feminism(s) and postfeminism. This thesis ascertains why the psychology of myth affects the reimagining of Arthuriana, and explores the retrospective nature of intertextuality in order to reflect on the trend for regressive representations in children’s Arthurian literature.

My thesis explores how female writers of the Golden Age of children’s literature used their domestic stories to convey their visions of a more desirable society to their child readers, and thus to widen their influence beyond the homely sphere. My first chapter reconsiders the nineteenth-century historical circumstances wherein the woman and the child came to be constructed and enshrined as the domestic woman and the Romantic child within the home, and excluded from the public discourses. I then consider how in domestic stories women writers tried to overcome this shared deprivation of autonomy with the child, focusing on the works of Charlotte Yonge, Juliana Ewing, and Mary Louisa Molesworth. It emerges that these women writers were all keen to encourage their young readers to question the boundaries that separate home from the public realm, and to imagine a society wherein these dividing lines would be mitigated and even be extinguished. The thesis argues that these female writers’ literary efforts to exhaust the potential of the domestic story, and that their motivation to provide their child readers a sense of agency were integral in the development of Golden Age children’s literature. Charlotte Yonge’s technique of evoking sympathy for the child characters forged a more intimate relationship between adult author and young reader, and initiated the unsettling of the hierarchy between old and young, and author and reader. Juliana Ewing’s experiments with child narrators and her mingling of adventure and fantasy stories with domestic stories showed successive writers the various directions the domestic story could go. Mary Louisa Molesworth’s nursery stories realized the purpose of Ewing’s literary experiments, as her stories’ natural interweaving of quotidian nursery and fairy tale elements not only alleviated the hierarchy between fantasy and domestic realism, but also opened an era in which the blending of these two modes would become one of the most popular genres in children’s literature.

Children's literature affects the child's socialisation process, including the shaping the gender roles. But despite this, up to now children have featured less in gender scholarship. Against this backround, this paper seeks to critically interrogate the physical, social, economic and political manifestations of masculinities in selected Kiswahili children\'s books from Kenya. By analysing these works, we hope to demonstrate that power and ideological aspects of masculinites are rooted at childhood. Since special attention will be paid to the ideological and power basis of the masculinities, the analysis of the selected works is done in the encompassing prism of Critical Discourse Analysis revealing hegemonic masculinities.

Annotation:

The purpose of this thesis was to examine the treatment and portrayal of children in science fiction utopian literature and determine whether this effectively indicated the writers’ feminist visions for social change. A feminist theoretical perspective and critical interpretation of several of the genre’s canon, Sheri Tepper’s The Gate to Women’s Country, Suzy McKee Chamas’s Motherlines, Sally Miller Gearhart’s The Wanderground, Ursula Le Guin’s The Dispossessed and Octavia Butler’s Xenogenesis series, were used as research methodologies. The findings revealed that children communicate feminist prescriptions for change in three ways: children as the literal, biological future, the link between two opposing societies, or the explanation for the difficult philosophies and structural elements of the societies. As this subject has been an unexplored area of criticism, it is recommended that critics begin to examine this treatment of children to more easily understand the writers’ social visions and effect their blueprints for change.

Há vários estudos sobre as relações entre Literatura e Imprensa, livros e periódicos, suas confluências e divergências, seus produtores e seus leitores. Quando o assunto é a literatura destinada ao público infantil, esses estudos tornam-se bastante reduzidos. Este trabalho tem como seu principal objetivo preencher essa lacuna, demonstrando a importante contribuição do jornal português O senhor doutor e da revista brasileira O Tico-Tico para a formação de leitores, assim como para a educação informal e a história da Literatura Infantil. . Verificamos, em uma perspectiva histórica e comparatista, como a literatura infantil foi construída além do suporte livro, levando em conta diferentes concepções de infância, tendências pedagógicas e a própria materialidade dos textos, além das diferentes práticas de leitura suscitadas. A partir desse pressuposto, levamos em conta a estrutura dos periódicos, a periodicidade dos gêneros, o contexto de produção e como a literatura infantil e seus leitores formaram-se além dos livros. É importante ressaltar que a forma como os textos literários para as crianças eram apresentados nos jornais, revistas e almanaques, no início do século XX, imprime-lhes uma legibilidade específica, própria da literatura infantil contemporânea. Essa especificidade confirma tais textos como fontes essenciais para a história dessa literatura, tanto no Brasil quanto em Portugal. Consideramos, portanto, que um estudo mais aprofundado sobre as produções literárias para crianças em periódicos torna-se necessário e justificável Acreditamos também que nossa pesquisa possa contribuir com uma visão mais ampla e consistente do processo de formação da literatura infantil em Língua Portuguesa, assim como sua contemporaneidade e perspectivas futuras.
There are multiple studies about the relations between Literature and Press, books and periodicals, their confluences and divergences, their writers and their readers. When the matter is literature destinated to children, little has been carried out. The target of this work is to fill in this gap, showing the contribution of the portuguese newspaper O senhor doutor and the brazilian magazine O Tico-Tico for the education of readers as well as for informal education and the history of Childrens Literature. We have verified, in a historical and comparative perspective, how childrens literature has been constructed beyond the book as a support, taking into account different conceptions of childhood, pedagogical approaches, the materiality of the texts and the different reading practices elicited. From this conjecture, we have considered the strucutre of the periodicals, the periodicity of the genres, production context and how children´s literature and its readers arised beyond the books. It is important to emphasize that the way upon which the literary texts for children were presented in the newspapers, magazines and almanacs in the beginning of the twentieth century imprints specific legibility, characteristic of contemporary childrens literature, and thus marks these texts as essentials to this literature, both in Brazil and Portugal. Therefore, we believe that a further study on the literary productions for children in journals becomes necessary and justifiable. We also believe that our research can contribute to a broader and more consistent vision of the process of children´s literature formation in the Portuguese Language as well as to its contemporaneity and future perspectives.

Annotation:

While members of any group of men may appear to be ordinary gendered examples of humanity, behind their physical similarities lie many socio-political and familial differences; thus it is only by knowing such men as individuals that their identities are revealed. Such is the aim of this thesis: to discover the 'real man' behind the statistics about sex-roles and the predominance of male characters in children's and adolescents' literature. From within a selection of Spanish texts a variety of male characters are analysed, focusing on six major roles: father, grandfather, imaginary friend, detective, outlaw or similar marginalised man, and foreign other, with particular attention paid to the Gypsy. All the chapters are linked by the Bakhtinian theory that dialogue with the other leads to the development of a character's or potential reader's sense of identity. The first chapter, concerning fatherhood, is related to a person's sense of intrinsic identity, given with their name and genetic heritage. The grandfather represents a similar sense of family continuity, as well as enabling the young reader to understand Spain's recent historical and rural past. An imaginary friend may symbolise an aspect of identity concerned with a child's ability to achieve a goal or to occupy a special place within the family. Detective stories are analogous to the young person's developing identity as a reader able to decipher the mysteries of texts, whilst marginalised men typify children themselves: persons who have neither status nor money, but who are able to indulge in carnivalistic behaviour which adults call 'play.' The development of one's sense of national identity is fomented through interaction with texts about foreigners who have contributed to Spain's growth as a nation from pre-historic times to the present. A brief critical evaluation of the role of women in detective fiction and as marginalised figures is offered by way of contrast in the appropriate chapters. The thesis concludes that, when analysed as individuals, many male characters demonstrate traits not traditionally considered masculine, and that it is necessary to look beyond mere representations of gender in judging the value of characters in literature for children and adolescents.

O objetivo desta dissertação é investigar e analisar a transgressão e o borramento de fronteiras de gênero (categoria narrativa) e sua conexão com a emancipação do sujeito feminino no nível da narrativa nos dois últimos romances de Angela Carter, Nights at the Circus e Wise Children, à luz da teoria da intertextualidade paródica. O tipo de opressão pela qual passam as narradoras/protagonistas Fevvers e Dora Chance bem como as outras personagens femininas em ambos os romances mostra-se intrinsicamente relacionada às restrições ideológicas e formais tradicionalmente impostas aos gêneros (categoria narrativa) pelo patriarcalismo. Estas são precisamente as normas e regulamentos que Angela Carter se propõe desvelar, questionar e minar de forma a preparar o caminho para novas alternativas bem como diferentes possibilidades de futuro tanto para homens como mulheres. A principal contribuição desta dissertação está em sua tentativa de relacionar gênero (categoria narrativa), gênero (determinação sexual) e mudança social a fim de encorajar mais pesquisas sobre o poder político que subjaz a pós-moderna reescritura ou reinvenção e borramento de gêneros (categoria narrativa) praticada pelo sujeito feminino
The aim of this dissertation is to investigate and analyse the transgression and blurring of genre boundaries and its connection with the emancipation of the female subject on the level of the narrative in Angela Carters last two novels, Nights at the Circus and Wise Children, in the light of parodic intertextuality theory. The sort of oppression the narrators/protagonists Fevvers and Dora Chance as well as the other female characters undergo in both novels turn out to be intrinsically related to the ideological and formal constraints traditionally imposed on genres by patriarchy. These are precisely the norms and regulations Angela Carter sets out to unveil, question and undermine so as to pave the way for new alternatives as well as different future possibilities for men and women alike. The main contribution of this dissertation lies in its attempt to relate genre, gender and social change in order to nourish further research on the political power underlying postmodern female rewriting or reinvention and blurring of genres

Annotation:

Som medmänniskor och i lärarprofessionen anser jag att vi måste ha en bra förståelse för genus, då det påverkar vår pedagogiska grundsyn och hur vi är som människor. För att kunna utmana könsnormer på ett konstruktivt sätt menar jag att vi måste förstå vad barnen har för syn på genus och tankar om skillnader mellan pojkar och flickor ur jämställdhetssynpunkt. Studien handlar om barns tankar om genus och könsroller utifrån högläsning av Astrid Lindgrens Mio min Mio (2011/ 1954) och Gro Dahle & Svein Nyhus Snäll (2008). Mio i Mio min Mio (2011/ 1954) representerar den snälla, men modiga manliga huvudrollen och Lussi i Snäll (2008) representerar den snälla, men normbrytande kvinnliga huvudrollen. Huvudsakliga frågeställningar är hur barnen i en klass 6 tolkar den valda litteraturen i ett genusperspektiv, samt hur den påverkar barnen i deras tankar om genus/ könsroller. Det intressanta är att det i varje tid med sin kultur och historia, finns rum för förändring (Hedlin 2010 s.20). Sker denna förändring i mötet med böckerna? Eleverna har fått svara på en enkät om genusperspektivet i respektive bok och jag har valt att analysera sex elevers enkäter, tre pojkar och tre flickor. Resultaten visar att barnen sett ett tydligt genusperspektiv i litteraturen, och utifrån detta har de utvecklat sin förståelse och i slutändan kunnat formulera sina tankar om genus och könsroller på ett djupare plan.
As fellow people and in the teaching profession, I believe that we need to have a good understanding about gender, because it affects our educational basic view and how we behave as humans. To be able to constructively challenge the current gender norms, I believe that we need to understand our pupils understanding in the subject of gender. We also need to understand their thoughts about the differences between boys and girls in a gender perspective. The study is about the pupils thoughts of gender and gender norms after reading aloud and having discussions about Astrid Lindgrens Mio, my son (2011/ 1954) and Gro Dahle & Svein Nyhus Snäll (Kind authors translation) (2008). Mio in Mio, my son (Lindgren 2011/ 1954) represent the kind, but brave boy as a main character and Lussi in Snäll (Dahle & Nyhus 2008) represents the kind, but norm breaking girl as the main character. The main issues are how pupils in the 6th grade interpret the chosen literature from a gender perspective, and how it affects the students in their thoughts about gender and gender norms. What is interesting is that in every time with its own culture and history, there is room for change (Hedlin 2010 s.20). Does this change happen when the pupil interacts with the books? The pupils have answered a questionnaire about the gender perspective in each book, and I chose to analyze the questionnaires of six pupils, three boys and three girls. The results show that the pupils have seen a clear gender perspective in the literature and on this basis, they developed their understanding and ultimately, they have been able to formulate their thoughts about gender and gender roles on a deeper level.

Annotation:

My dissertation critiques Western culture’s vertical command of “growing up” to adult completion (rational, heterosexual, married, wealthy, professionally successful) as a reductionist itinerary of human movement leading to subjective sedimentations. Rather, my project proposes ways of “moving rhizomatically” by which it advances a notion of a machinic identity that moves continuously, contingently, and waywardly along less vertical, less excruciating and more horizontal, life-affirmative trails. To this end, my thesis proposes a “rhizomatic semiosis” as extrapolated from the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari to put forward a notion of language and, by implication, subjectivity, as dynamic and metamorphic. Rather than trying to figure out who the child is or what it experiences consciously, my project wishes to embrace an elusiveness at the heart of subjectivity to argue for continued identity creation beyond the apparently confining parameters of adulthood. This dissertation, then, is about the need to re-examine our ways of growing beyond the lines of teleological progression. By turning to Deleuze’s child, an intangible one that “makes desperate attempts to carry out a performance that the psychoanalyst totally misconstrues” (A Thousand Plateaus 13), I wish to shift focus away from the hierarchical, binary, and ideal model of “growing up” and toward a notion of movement that makes way for plural identities in their becoming. This endeavour reveals itself in particular in the work of John Wray, Todd Field, Peter Cameron, Sara Prichard, Michael Cunningham, and Cormac McCarthy, whose work has received little or no attention at all—a lacuna in research that exists perhaps due to these artists’ innovative approach to a minor literature that promotes the notion of a machinic self and questions the dominant modes of Western culture’s literature for, around, and of children.

Annotation:

This thesis investigates the construction of role models, more specifically literary didactics and constructions of subject positions, in literary works with exemplary stories in Swedish 1400–1750, from the perspective of literature for children and young adults. Childhood concepts, didactic concepts and subject positions presented to the reader are analyzed from the point of view of dominance and dissonance between different characters and messages. A number of themes have been chosen for a comparative study, for example: ideas about identification, the construction of subject positions and ideals for girls, the responsibility of adults, subversive tendencies, obedience or autonomy, the immoral role model as exemplary, conflicts between different childhood concepts, adults and children as role models. A central conclusion is that there is variation when it comes to the subject positions that are constructed for children and young adults, mainly through role models. There are examples of authoritative teachings that demands the subordination and obedience of the reader/recipient, as well as encouragement of questioning and even contra conventional subject positions. One conclusion is that premodern literature for the young does not just have an authoritative tone towards the reader, but the texts also negotiates with the reader. The messages are not just about obedience and religious fidelity, but also about learning, questioning and personal, moral responsibility. A critical perspective on adults is encouraged through critizism of adults and exemplary role models. Subject positions for girls also vary in the texts. Some texts convey conventional, passive gender roles while others present active subject positions, where chastity, wisdom and manliness are presented as ideal virtues for girls.

Annotation:

Picturebooks are an important part of the classroom environment in early childhood education. They open doors to new experiences, nurture students' cultural identities, and invite students to explore connections across cultures. In the United States today, many of the picturebooks that are available to teachers and students in preschool classrooms come from the state curriculum that the school district has implemented. Shifting demographic trends have led many educators to recognize a need for more diversity of literature in classrooms. This study was conducted in response to this growing concern that books should better reflect the cultures and identities of the children who read them, with a particular emphasis on young female children of color. The research question guiding this study is: How do picturebook texts and illustrations in an early childhood curriculum represent the identities of female characters of color as viewed through a critical feminist theoretical lens? To investigate this question, I critically analyzed children's picturebooks from a current early childhood curriculum adopted by the state of Texas, focusing on representations of gender and race. The selected books were analyzed using critical content and critical visual analyses to consider how the text and illustrations together represent female characters of color. Although earlier studies of picturebooks have pointed out a deficit of authentic portrayals of female characters of color, this study found that books in the sample did show some attention to authentic cultural themes including motherhood, action and agency, and subjugated knowledge and culture. However, implications for practice and research included the need for more balanced representation of diverse cultures within the curriculum to better reflect preschool demographics, as well as the need for more classroom instruction on books that give voice and agency to young female children of color as they develop their personal and cultural identities.

Annotation:

Children’s literature is one of many important influences of childhood socialization and teaches children about contemporary society. Therefore, it is important to understand what messages children’s literature convey. In this thesis, I analyze four contemporary, Swedish graphic novels, aimed at children between the ages of six and nine years old. My research questions are: how do the studied books portray children and childhood? And how do the books portray the intersectional positions of girlhood and boyhood? To gather and analyze my data, I used close reading and thematic analysis. This process resulted in three themes, which I call: ‘a child in need of protection or the competent child’, ‘the gender-neutral superhero or the gendered superhero’ and ‘constructing girlhood and boyhood’. The results show that the books depict children in two ways; either as dependent and vulnerable or as competent agents. This relates to traditional, developmental understandings of children as well as understandings of children as formulated by the new paradigm for the study of childhood. Moreover, the results problematize the role of the superhero, specifically the ways in which the books explicitly gender the superhero in the text and portrays what could either be interpreted as a gender-neutral or an implicitly masculine superhero in the illustrations. Finally, the results indicate that the books depict girlhood and boyhood as contrasting identities. In conclusion, the authors of the books seem interested in challenging conventional norms regarding children and childhood, in line with a larger trend among Swedish children’s literature. At the same time, the books also convey traditional norms regarding both girlhood and boyhood, such as by the clear markers of age and gender in the illustrations.
Barnlitteratur är en av många viktiga influenser på barndomssocialisation och lär barn om det samtida samhället. Därför är det viktigt att förstå vilka budskap som barnlitteratur förmedlar. I denna uppsats analyserar jag fyra samtida svenska grafiska noveller riktade till barn mellan sex och nio år. Mina frågeställningar är: hur skildrar de studerade böckerna barn och barndom? Och hur skildrar böckerna de intersektionella positionerna flickskap och pojkskap? För att samla in och analysera min data har jag använt mig av närläsning och tematisk analys. Denna process resulterade i tre teman som jag kallar: ’ett barn i behov av skydd eller det kompetenta barnet’, ’den genusneutrala superhjälten eller den könade hjälten’ och ’att konstruera flickskap och pojkskap’. Resultaten visar att böckerna skildrar barn på två sätt: antingen som utsatta och i beroendeställning eller som kompetenta agenter. Dessa relaterar till traditionella, utvecklingsmässiga förståelser av barn liksom förståelser av barn så som de formulerats av det nya paradigmet för studiet av barndom. Dessutom problematiserar resultaten superhjälterollen, specifikt det sätt på vilket böckerna explicit könar superhjälten i text och porträtterar vad som antingen kan tolkas som en genusneutral eller en implicit maskulin superhjälte i illustrationerna. Till sist så indikerar resultaten att böckerna skildrar flickskap och pojkskap som kontrasterande identiteter. Sammanfattningsvis så verkar författarna av böckerna intresserade av att utmana konventionella normer rörande barn och barndom, i linje med en större trend bland svenska barnböcker. Samtidigt så skildrar böckerna också traditionella normer gällande både flickskap och pojkskap, så som genom de tydliga markörerna för ålder och genus i illustrationerna.

Annotation:

Mitt syfte med denna studie är att undersöka och beskriva hur genus kan konstrueras i barnlitteratur. Studien avhandlar hur genus framställs och konstrueras i två stycken skönlitterära böcker som är skrivna för barn i åldersgruppen 6-9 år. Som metod har jag använt en diskursanalys vilket är en kvalitativ textanalys. Mina resultat visar en ganska stereotyp framställning av genus även om det görs små avsteg från normerna. Jag ser en risk i att barnen kan påverkas av dessa stereotypa framställningar och att de tvingas in i genusordningen utan att få möjlighet att utveckla identiteter med breda genuspositioner. Karaktärerna i min studie visade upp både feminina och maskulina drag vilket jag tror är ett problem som återfinns i alla genusstereotyper och inte enbart i litterära sammanhang Jag upplevde det problematiskt att strikt tolka karaktärerna mot ett motsatsschema. Det jag ändå kom fram till i mina slutsatser är att jag håller med den tidigare forskningen om att värderingar återfinns i barnlitteraturen, samt att den kan både utmana och förstärka normer som finns i samhället.

Introduction -- Fantastic metamorphosis as childhood 'otherness' -- The metamorphic growth of wings : deviant development and adolescent hybridity -- Tenors of maturation: developing powers and changing identities -- Changing representations of werewolves: ideologies of racial and ethnic otherness -- The desire for transcendence: jouissance in selkie narratives -- Conclusion -- Bibliography -- Appendix: "The great Silkie of Sule Skerry": three versions.
My central thesis is that fantastic motifs work on a metaphorical level to encapsulate and express ideologies that have frequently been naturalised as 'truths'. I develop a theory of motif metaphors in order to examine the ideologies generated by the fantastic motif of metamorphosis in a range of contemporary children's and young adult fantasy texts. Although fantastic metamorphosis is an exceptionally prevalent and powerful motif in children's and young adult fantasy literature, symbolising important ideas about change and otherness in relation to childhood, adolescence, and maturation, and conveying important ideologies about the world in which we live, it has been little analysed in children's literature criticism. The detailed analyses of particular metamorphosis motif metaphors in this study expand and refine our academic understanding of the metamorphosis figure and consequently provide insight into the underlying principles and particular forms of a variety of significant ideologies.
By examining several principal metamorphosis motif metaphors I investigate how a number of specific cultural beliefs are constructed and represented in contemporary children's and young adult fantasy literature. I particularly focus upon metamorphosis as a metaphor for childhood otherness; adolescent hybridity and deviant development; maturation as a process of self-change and physical empowerment; racial and ethnic difference and otherness; and desire and jouissance. I apply a range of pertinent cultural theories to explore these motif metaphors fully, drawing on the interpretive frameworks most appropriate to the concepts under consideration. I thus employ general psychoanalytic theories of embodiment, development, language, subjectivity, projection, and abjection; poststructuralist, social constructionist, and sociological theories; and wide-ranging literary theories, philosophical theories, gender and feminist theories, race and ethnicity theories, developmental theories, and theories of fantasy and animality. The use of such theories allows for incisive explorations of the explicit and implicit ideologies metaphorically conveyed by the motif of metamorphosis in different fantasy texts.
In this study, I present a number of specific analyses that enhance our knowledge of the motif of fantastic metamorphosis and of significant cultural ideologies. In doing so, I provide a model for a new and precise approach to the analysis of fantasy literature.

Annotation:

This study examines booktalk, that is, teacher-led group discussions about books for children in a Swedish school. The empirical data comprise 24 hours of videorecorded booktalk in grades 4–7. In total, 40 children (aged 10–14 years) were recorded during 24 sessions. The present approach diverges from previous readerresponse studies in that it draws on authentic data, and in that it examines talk at a micro level, applying an approach from discursive psychology. By focusing on authentic book discussions, the study contributes to the development of readerresponse methods. All eight books applied in the booktalk sessions involved some type of existential issue: freedom, separation, loyalty, and mortal danger (Chapter 4). Yet, such issues were rarely discussed. An important task of the present thesis was to understand why such issues did not materialise, that is, what did not take place. In Chapter 5, a series of booktalk dilemmas were identified. The booktalk sessions were generally lively and informal. Yet, booktalk as such was often transformed into other local educational projects; e.g. time scheduling, vocabulary lessons or reading aloud exercises. Gender was invoked in all booktalk sessions (Chapter 6). In line with predictions from reader-response theory, progressive texts were, at times, discussed in gender stereotypical ways. The findings also revealed a generational pattern in that the pupils discussed fictive children in less traditional ways than adult characters. The interface between texts and life was invoked in all booktalk sessions (Chapter 7). There was, again, a generational pattern in that children entertained ideas other than those of their teachers concerning legitimate topics in a school context. Also, the discussions revealed a problem of balance between pupils’ privacy, on the one hand, and engaging discussions on texts and life, on the other.

The aim of this study is to see which male norms and ideals are expressed in four selected books for children aged 9–12. Is it just a stereotyped ideal that is represented in the books or can others be found as well? The method used for the analysis is critical discourse analysis, proceeding from a gender perspective. The material I have studied consists of Berts dagbok, Min vän Percys magiska gymnastikskor, Eva & Adam – en midsommarnattsmardröm and Sju förtrollade kvällar. My analysis shows that all the books contain roughly the same ideals and norms but that there is always a character who reflects the male ideal more than the other characters.

Annotation:

I den stora hen-debatten under 2012 saknades barnens perspektiv. Syftet med denna uppsats är att belysa det genom att ta reda på vilka pronomen förskolebarn använder i sitt samtalande om barnboken Kivi och monsterhund som endast innehåller könsneutrala pronomen. Materialinsamlingen gjordes genom barnintervjuer i fokusgrupper där fyra- och femåriga förskolebarn fick samtala om boken och som analyseringsmetod har en mestadels kvantitativ metod använts för att ta reda på pronomenens frekvens. Resultaten visar att barnen inte reagerade nämnvärt på hen och använde det inte heller själva. Kivi omnämndes av barnen som han medan monsterhunden refererades till som den eller han. Hypotesen att barnen skulle tillskriva Kivi sitt eget kön visade sig inte stämma då skillnaderna i pronomenanvändning pojkar och flickor emellan var minimala. Resultaten kan bero på att mannen ses som norm och kvinnor som ”det Andra” (de Beauvoir 2002) samt att barnlitteraturen domineras av pojkar. Resultaten överensstämmer också med tidigare forskning av Merrit & Kok (1995) som visar att karaktärer med könsneutrala namn tenderar att tillskrivas manligt kön.
In the great debate over the gender-neutral pronoun hen in 2012, the perspective of the children was missing. The aim of this bachelor essay is to shed light on that perspective by investigating which pronouns pre-school children use in conversation about the children’s book Kivi och monsterhund which contains only gender-neutral pronouns. The material was obtained through children’s interviews in focus groups where four- and five-year-old pre-school children talked about the book and the material was analyzed by using a mostly quantitative method to find out the frequency of the used pronouns. The results show that the children scarcely reacted to hen nor did they use it themselves. Kivi was referred to by the children as he while monsterhunden (the monster dog) was referred to as it or he. The hypothesis that the children would ascribe Kivi their own gender proved to be incorrect as the differences in use of pronouns between boys and girls were minimal. The results may be an effect of the man being viewed as the norm and women as “the Other” (de Beauvoir 2002) and the dominance of boys in children’s literature. The results also correlate to previous research by Merrit & Kok (1995) that show that characters with gender-neutral names tend to be ascribed male gender.

I förskolan sker det hela tiden möten mellan barn och vuxna och dessa möten har en stor inverkan på barns utveckling. Vi valde att göra denna undersökning då syftet var att se vad förskollärare har för förhållningssätt till genus i barnböcker. Studien har genomförts genom intervjuer med tre förskollärare i två olika kommuner i Mellansverige. Intervjuernas resultat har varit grunden för underlag till vår analys och diskussion. I resultatet framgick det att förskollärares förhållningssätt till genus är viktigt för utvecklandet av barns värderingar och attityder kring könsroller och att barnböcker kan vara ett sätt att överföra dessa värderingar på. Resultatet visade även att barnböcker i samband med genus behövs uppmärksammas mer på vissa förskolor.

Syftet med examensarbetet är främst att undersöka hur genus framställs i barnlitteratur samt fokusera på bibliotekariens roll i samband med utlåning av barnböcker till förskolan och vårdnadshavare. Som förskollärare ser vi boken som ett pedagogiskt redskap och som ett stöd i ett genusarbete. Vi har erfarenheter av att boken har ett stort användningsområde och de flesta böcker lånas via biblioteket. Därför ser vi att bibliotekarien har en viktig roll för förskolan i deras bokutbud. LpFö98 tar upp genusarbetet som en del av verksamheten, vi anser att det är vår skyldighet att ha kunskap om genus och dess betydelse för kommande generationer. Vi har valt att analysera barnböcker utifrån ett genusperspektiv för att få en inblick i hur könsrollerna framställs. I studien finns en fördjupad del där bibliotekarierna beskriver sin roll för förskolan och deras syn på genus. Slutsatsen i arbetet är att de stereotypa könsrollerna framhävs till viss del i våra valda barnböcker. Studien tydliggör bibliotekariernas nära samarbete och betydelse för förskolan och vårdnadshavare. Slutligen framkommer bokens betydelse som ett pedagogiskt redskap för barnens identitetsutveckling.

The purpose of this paper is to examine how gender and equality is represented in children's books and how educators from a didactic perspective can work with children's literature as part of their work with value-based issues. The books used for this paper is Alfons och Milla (1985) written by Gunilla Bergström and Kalle med klänning (2008) written by Anette Skåhlberg. These books were written during different decades and both the gender and ecuality aspect is presented differently. This might be explained by the values and what was normal during the times that they were written. Kalle med klänning (2008) is challenging the normal thoughts about gender. The book Alfons och Milla (1985) presents that boys and girls are different in the sense that they do and act differently. After analyzing both these books the conclusion is that Kalle med klänning (2008) is more suitable from a didactical perspective although Alfons och Milla (1985) can also be used in a didactic purpose. Both books gives us a good ground to discuss what is typically male and what is typically female although they illustrate gender differently. Methods to enlight these questions may be to read out loud and/or have a discussion about the books to get a deeper understanding regarding gender, equality and common principles.
Arbetets syfte är att undersöka hur aspekten genus och jämställdhet ter sig i bilderböcker och hur pedagoger ur ett didaktiskt perspektiv kan arbeta med barnlitteratur i arbetet med värdegrundsfrågor. De böcker som har utgjort grunden för denna litteraturanalys heter Alfons och Milla (1985), av Gunilla Bergström samt Kalle med klänning (2008), av Anette Skåhlberg. Böckerna är skriva under olika årtionden och genus och jämställdhetsaspekten synliggörs på olika sätt i de båda böckerna. Vilket kan ha sin förklaring i vilka värden och normer som präglade samhället förtillfället då böckerna skrevs. I Kalle med klänning (2008) är det tydligt vad författaren vill förmedla då det är en modern saga som bryter normer vilket vi både kan se och läsa i boken. I Alfons och Milla (1985) framställs det att det är skillnad mellan pojkar respektive flickor och det finns beteende som förknippas med respektive kön. Båda böckerna kan användas i arbetet med värdegrunden då aspekten genus och jämställdhet präglar böckerna dock framställs det på olika sätt. Metoderna högläsning och boksamtal är två metoder som lämpar sig i arbetet. Dock så har inte detta prövats i praktiken utan endast i teorin.

Annotation:

This paper intends to examine how parents think and reflect on gender issues when they borrow books for their children at the library. The theory applied is Yvonne Hirdman’s theory of a gender system. A questionnaire was made available at the Children's department of Uppsala City Library in February, 2010. The material was compiled and analyzed with the intention to try to detect trends, patterns and themes, rather than statistics and hard data.

Parents in the study perceive themselves as gender-conscious. They are thinking about gender issues when they choose books for their children at the library. Parents’ main focus seems to be how children are portrayed in books and many are critical of what they consider to be stereotypes and simplistic interpretations. They express a need for children's books where children are depicted more nuanced, where girls can be strong and daring and the boys may be shy and crying. Pictures of parents/adults were not analyzed equally close by the parents in the study, although respondents indicated that they think it's important how adults are depicted, as they become a kind of template for how parents are expected to be and behave. In general they are experiencing today's children's books as largely stereotypical, but add that there seem to be a wide range of issues in contemporary children's book publishing, where even radical literature with clear gender problematization has its place.

Many parents choose to completely remove books that they believe has too gender-stereotyped content, others see this type of literature as a good opportunity to discuss gender issues with their children. In the case of older children's literature and fairy tales, the majority of parents in the study express the importance of mediating the cultural heritage to their children.

Parents express a need for children's literature where the act of breaking gender standards isn't too obvious or appears as the main purpose of the text, but is present as a natural background in the story. What parents want - besides great stories - are depictions of children where a wide range of emotions and personality traits are allowed regardless of the protagonist's biological gender.

Min studie och mitt syfte riktar sig mot pedagogers användning av barnboken i den dagliga verksamheten på förskolan. Utifrån användandet av barnboken så har jag valt att rikta mitt fokus mot ett genusperspektiv. Mitt syfte är därför att också titta närmare på om/hur pedagoger använder sig av barnboken i sitt genusarbete i förskolan. Mina frågeställningar är: Hur använder pedagoger, enligt dem själva, barnboken i den dagliga verksamheten? Och hur förhåller sig pedagoger till användningen av barnboken som ett pedagogiskt verktyg när det kommer till arbetet kring genus i förskolan? Jag valde att använda mig av metoden intervjuer i min studie för att kunna få pedagogers svar utifrån mina frågor. Jag har gjort en undersökande studie där jag har valt att intervjua två pedagoger från en kommunal förskola och två pedagoger från en fristående förskola. Jag har sammanställt förskolorna och sedan tittat på och jämfört svaren utifrån mina valda teoretiska perspektiv. Det färdiga resultatet visar på att barnboken används dagligen på de bägge förskolorna och att genus är något som pedagogerna alltid är medvetna om.
My study and my purpose is focused on teachers' use of children's literature in the daily activities in preschool. Based on the use of the children's book, I have chosen to aim my focus towards a gender perspective. My purpose is also to look into whether/how teachers use children's literature as a means to problematize gender. My questions are: How, according to themselves, do educators use children's literature during daily activities in preschool? And what are the attitudes of these educators to the use of children's literature as an educational tool when it comes to problematizing gender in preschool? I chose to work with interviews in my study to get teachers answers based on my questions. I have made an investigative study where I have chosen to interview two teachers from a public preschool and two teachers from an independent preschool. I have compiled the preschools and then looked at and compared the answers from my chosen theoretical perspective. The final result shows that children's literature is used daily in both of the preschools and that gender is something that educators always keep at the back of their minds.

Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur genus framställs i tio utvalda bilderböcker. Urvalet av de böcker som analyserats, skedde genom att två bibliotek tog fram information kring vilka de mest utlånade bilderböckerna år 2020 var bland barn i åldern 3–6 år, relaterat till de äldre barnen i förskolan. Studien utgörs av en hermeneutisk textanalys ur ett genusperspektiv. Bilderböckerna bearbetades sedan utifrån flera analysfrågor vid flertalet tillfällen för att se hur barnlitteraturen framställer genus utifrån relevant teori och vad tidigare forskning har visat på. Vår slutsats är att bilderböcker till stora delar skildrar genus utifrån de stereotyper genusteorier pekar på och tidigare forskning visar, antingen i text, bild eller i ikonotexten. Denna slutsats baserar vi på de könsstereotypa karaktärer och miljöer som vi har funnit i de analyserade böckerna. De böcker som har pojkar som huvudrollsinnehavare genererar en berättelse som är snabb och händelserik i jämförelse med när flickor har huvudrollen. Karaktärernas egenskaper förstärker de traditionella könsmönstren oavsett om karaktärerna är djur eller människor. Bilderna i böckerna är de som många gånger förstärker könsstereotyper exempelvis genom färger eller kläder.
The purpose of this study is to analyze how gender is portrayed in picture books. The analyzed data consist of ten picture books. The selection of the ten books were made by two libraries producing information about the most borrowed picture books year 2020 for children in the age of 3-6 years, the older children in preschool. This analysis is carried out through a hermeneutic text analysis from a gender perspective. Our conclusion is that picture books largely depict gender based on the stereotypes that previous research discuss, either in text, image or iconotext. The conclusion is based on the stereotypical characteristics of the male and female characters as well as on how environments are portrayed in the analyzed books. The books with male protagonists generate a story that is fast and eventful in comparison with narratives with female protagonists. The characters’ characteristics reflect traditional gender patterns regardless of whether the characters are animals or humans. It is often the pictures that reinforce gender stereotypes, for example through colors or clothes.

The aim of this study is to investigate stereotypical gender roles in ten fiction-related chapter books for children and young adults from a gender perspective. The selection of fictions has been made randomly from the decades of the 1940s, 1970s, 1990s and 2010s, of which nine books are from the three later decades, three from each decade, and one from the 1940s. The book from the 1940s, Fem söker en skatt, has together with research on gender and stereotypical gender roles in children's and youth literature, worked as a guideline on stereotypical gender roles. The study shows that characters following the stereotypical gender roles are getting fewer and fewer over the years, and that it is of the utmost importance to discuss gender equality from an early age. Here, teachers have an important role to strengthen children and young adult's awareness and acceptance for all human being's own worth.
Syftet med den här studien är att ur ett genusperspektiv undersöka stereotypa könsroller i tio skönlitterära kapitelböcker för barn och unga. Urvalet av skönlitteratur har gjorts slumpmässigt utifrån årtiondena 1940-, 1970-, 1990- samt 2010-talet varav tre böcker är från vardera av de tre senare årtiondena, och en från 1940-talet. Boken från 1940-talet, Fem söker en skatt, har tillsammans med forskning kring genus och stereotypa könsroller i barn- och ungdomslitteratur fungerat som en ledstjärna kring stereotypa könsroller. Studien visar på att karaktärer som följer stereotypa könsroller blir färre och färre med åren, samt att det är av högsta vikt att diskutera jämställdhet mellan könen redan från tidig ålder. Här har lärarna en viktig roll för att stärka barn och ungas medvetenhet och acceptans för alla människors egenvärde.

Der volle Inhalt der Quelle

Annotation:

Walter Benjamin’s suggestion that great literary works not only add to canonical literature but also ‘dissolve’ genres may not seem apt in an examination of crime fiction, a genre noted for its rigidity and structured form. Though much of this mass-marketed, populist fiction cannot be perceived as great literature, nonetheless, some do work to dissolve genres, to re-shape them to different ends. This is especially true of Welsh crime fiction written in English. This thesis posits that there is a wealth of undiscovered Welsh crime fiction written in English and that those neglected works are necessary to the study of both crime fiction and Welsh writing in English. Central to this argument is my assertion that Welsh crime fiction (as it will henceforth be referred as) is a separate genre that contains its own specific tropes and paradigms, markers that are indicative of a certain Welsh cultural identity. As this study also acts as a survey of a previously unexamined area, of necessity, the works under question are the product of a extensive period: from the late-nineteenth century to the present day. While the chapters are arranged thematically, I have also tried to keep a sense of a chronological order with a sense of authors writing against or responding too previous generations of crime writers. In this manner, a tradition can be seen to be forming, one which re-imagines Welsh identity over this protracted period. As this literature springs from a nation that has frequently been defined as ‘other’, the Introduction starts with an examination of the so-called Blue Books and how they came to define the Welsh character for those outside Wales. Following this, Chapter I discusses how English crime writers absorbed these discourses and played out their ensuing anxieties in their work. Chapter II then explores an emergent Welsh crime fiction, one which both mimics and subverts anglocentric paradigms. This subversion is also played out in socialist crime fiction, the focus of Chapter III. Interestingly, these re-workings and re-imaginings of anglocentric norms are dealt with in different ways by male and female authors so Chapters IV and V will deal with male and female appropriations of genre respectively. This thesis concludes by asserting that Welsh identity is influential in forming a new genre, one that takes a rigid and hierarchical structure and adapts it to its own ends.

This dissertation situates itself within the problematic (mis)representation of women’s traumatic Holocaust experiences that are subjected to and underplayed by the patriarchal paradigm of Holocaust literature, in which male survivor-narratives constitute the norm. In using Holocaust texts from three different genres and periods, namely Anne Frank’s Diary of 1947, Ruth Klüger’s 2001 autobiography Still Alive: a Holocaust Girlhood Remembered, and Bernhard Schlink’s 1995 novel The Reader, this project approaches the role of genres in the re-articulation of traumatic experiences. It is the aim of this dissertation to explore the epistolary, autobiographic and fictional forms and their inherent conventions and to examine how they facilitate the articulation of women’s experiences that have long been underplayed and sanitized by rigid, patriarchal historical and literary discourses. In doing so, the project follows the structurally fragmenting impact of trauma on the mind and thus moves from short, fragmented forms, such as The Diary, to the more coherent autobiography, Still Alive, and eventually to the novel The Reader. In this analysis of the potential, conventions and complexities that each genre poses to the articulation of trauma, this project outlines and crosses boundaries of genre, gender, language and memory. In aiming at a comparative analysis of how different genres may facilitate the articulation of traumatic experiences differently, this project is based on the argument that the verbalization of trauma is essential for a person to regain control over their memories. This project is based on the different issues regarding the treatment of women, which arise in the selected texts. In selecting epistolary, autobiographic and fictional primary Holocaust texts, all of which address women’s trauma in various forms, I investigate the problematic and distorted representations of women’s experiences. These distortions of women’s traumatic experiences of the Holocaust undermine the validity of such experiences themselves. In order to show the extent of this misrepresentation across genres, I choose three very different primary texts. Firstly, a strong educational component has been ascribed to the diary of Anne Frank, which will be read as a subversive tool. Secondly, the autobiographic text chosen deals extensively with the issue of German/English translation and the representation of trauma that is affected by a bilingual condition. Thirdly, I select a postmodern novel that challenges conventional readings of Holocaust experiences through the use of very complex female characters. In approaching these issues, I will first identify such problematic distortions in the representations of women’s experiences in all three selected texts. I will then use the framework of literary theory as well as trauma and gender theorists to substantiate and evaluate my findings. In doing so, I seek to establish a comparative analysis of how the different forms allow women to re-articulate their traumatic experiences.

Annotation:

This thesis attempts an intervention in popular music classification. It argues that popular musicians do not only choose the titles to their works, but go further to define the genres of these works. The dynamic at play is such that most popular musicians claim to produce works of different and new genres with each new work they create. By engaging with the works of a selection of Nigerian popular musicians, the thesis demonstrates that the disorderliness in popular music branding can be restricted. Through a critical discourse analysis of the textual elements of the material and of ‘alternative’ audience contributions, the thesis advocates a new genre of popular music, namely the genre of ‘political music’. This distinctive genre is extractable from the otherwise conventional genres of popular music, and is composed of three comprehensible subgenres namely protest political music, unity political music and terrestrial praise political music. The study’s selection is made of popular music material from hip hop, reggae, afro-beat, and juju genres. They are delivered in popular Nigerian languages ranging between Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo, English and Pidgin English.
