The present work analyses the novel The Penelopiad: The Myth of Penelope and Odysseus (2005), by the Canadian author Margaret Atwood, translated into Portuguese as A Odisséia de Penélope (2005), a narrative characterized as a recreation of the homeric myth. This novel offers its reader an opportunity of coming back to Greece, now having Penelope as a protagonist and narrator, opening the possibilities of representing this figure of classical myhtology beyond Homer s representations. According to Homer s narrative, in tune with patriarchal understanding of gender relations, women, specially Greek women, should become mothers and remain inside the gineceu, what his Penelope did. However, in the reconstruction and rereading of this epic text presented by Atwood, Penelope invites us to look through the brumes of the past in order to listen to possibly different arrangements about the story of her life. It is in this context that our work intends to present and discuss Atwood s Penelope, recognizing other possibilities of retelling this classic text, deconstructing Homer s view at different points and aspects. Thus, by examining the brackets, the intersticial spaces of the homeric narrative, Atwood reconstructs the character and the myth, enabling her Penelope to speak about everything that was silenced in the homeric text, revealing her view, opinion and explanation about those events.
O presente trabalho analisa The Penelopiad: The Myth of Penelope and Odysseus (2005), da autora canadense Margaret Atwood, traduzida para a língua portuguesa, como A Odisséia de Penélope (2005), narrativa caracterizada como recriação do mito homérico. Tal romance proporciona ao leitor um retorno à Grécia antiga, agora com Penélope como protagonista e narradora, abrindo o leque de representações desta figura da mitologia clássica para além da criação de Homero. De acordo com a narrativa homérica, afinada com a construção de um masculino bastante fortalecido à época, a mulher, especialmente a grega, caberia a maternidade e o enclausuramento no gineceu, atividades cumpridas à risca por Penélope, o que reconhecemos na personagem homérica. Porém, na reconstrução e releitura da épica desenvolvida por Atwood, Penélope convida-nos a espiar por entre as névoas de seu passado para ouvirmos a orquestração das falas de toda a sua vida. É nesse contexto que este trabalho pretende apresentar a Penélope de Atwood, reconhecendo uma outra possibilidade criada por esta autora canadense de contar a história clássica, desconstruindo a versão apresentada por Homero em diversos momentos. Portanto, examinando, pois, as lacunas ou espaços intersticiais da narrativa homérica, Atwood reconstrói a personagem, ou o mito, concedendo a sua protagonista o direito de se pronunciar sobre o que no texto original passará em silêncio, revelando seu olhar, sua opinião e suas explicações sobre o desenrolar dos fatos.

Margaret Atwood, ao (re)escrever A Odisséia a partir da perspectiva de Penélope na tentativa de responder à inquietação que a assombrava; “o que levou ao enforcamento das aias, e o que Penélope estava realmente tramando?”, nos faz repensar e questionar o lugar que a mulher ocupa nas grandes narrativas, sempre como objeto e nunca como sujeito. Ela também coloca sob suspeita certas hierarquias aceitas como universais. Levando em consideração o fato de a autora se apropriar de um texto clássico, para tanto, o aporte teórico utilizado se centra no conceito de dialogismo de Bakhtin, e suas reflexões sobre o gênero paródico, bem como no conceito de intertextualidade de Kristeva. Além disso, o viés de gênero que caracteriza a obra da autora demanda um aporte teórico específico, o dos estudos de gênero. ______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
Margaret Atwood, when (re)writing the Odyssey from Penelope's perspective in an attempt to answer the restlessness that haunted her; "what led to the hanging of the maids, and what was Penelope really up to?" makes us rethink and question the place of women in the big narratives, always as an object and never as a subject. She also puts under suspicion certain hierarchies accepted as universal. Taking into consideration the fact that the author is appropriating a classical text, the theoretical approach focuses on the concept of dialogism by Bakhtin, and his reflections on the parody genre, as well as Kristeva’s concept of intertextuality. Moreover, the gender perspective that characterizes the work of the author demands a specific theoretical approach; gender studies.
COUTURIER, STOREY FRANCOISE. ""l'allegorie dans l'oeuvre de margaret atwood et d'angela carter"." Nice, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997NICE2019.
Full textThis piece of research aims at analysing the notion of allegory in the work of two anglo-saxon writers, margaret atwood, a canadian, and angela carter, an englishwoman (who died in 1990). I define the term of allegory as follows: it consists in the balance of two forces, the didactic (the most dogmatic part of a work, the teaching that the author wishes to transmit to the reader through his work of fiction), and fantasy (a notion that brings together all imaginary discourses, such as the fantastic, the marvellous, science-fiction, utopia/dystopia, the gothic, etc. ). The first part of the dissertation analyses allegory as an ambivalent discourse, often rejected by critics but truly present in most works of literature. In this part the link between allegory and feminism is also put under scrutiny. Indeed, we may wonder why a great majority of texts written by women often has an allegorical dimension, dissimulating behind fantasy a polemical discourse of a political, sexual or social nature. The second part analyses the work of margaret atwood in relation to allegory, in particular through two novels, surfacing and the handmaid's tale. Her poems are also taken in consideration. The third and last part studies the work of angela carter, in particular through her short stories and five novels that illustrate the evolution of her thought around allegory: the infernal desire machines of doctor hoffman, the passion of new eve, nights at the circus, heroes and villains, and her last novel wise children
Gribble, Jill. "Motifs of transformation in four novels of Margaret Atwood." Master's thesis, University of Cape Town, 2000. http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10510.
Full textThe dominant theme that Margaret Atwood foregrounds in her writing is that of victimisation, whether she is writing of the victimisation of a country, of a minority group, of animals or of an individual. She adopts the position that through acknowledgement of that victimisation, and a refusal to accept the role of victim, it is possible to become a creative non-victim. It soon becomes evident from Atwood's writing that victimisation of one kind or another is what underpins the powerful patriarchal constructions of society. In each of the four novels discussed in this thesis Atwood's female protagonists, all victims of patriarchy, transform themselves, through accessing their creativity, using it transgressively, and overcoming the strictures of patriarchy upon their lives.

Full texts writings, fantasies, dreams and myths, the archetypes that women possess will be uncovered and the female experience will have the chance to be voiced more accurately. The aim of this thesis is to explore Surfacing and The Penelopiad by Margaret Atwood and Indigo and The Leto Bundle by Marina Warner to lay bare the attempts of both writers to break away from the male-oriented myths so as to rewrite female experience via rewriting myths. In four novels, the archetypes and mythical elements are used in rewriting the gender and sexual identity markers which have long been imposed on women by patriarchal mythmakers. By rewriting these markers, both writers not only voice the genuine female experience and the body but also pave the way for the creation of new myths which would celebrate female identity and freedom.

Full textIn the Post-structuralist turn, a less unified and universalizing concept of space as merely a meaningless stage is proposed. Such notion, as Michel Foucault announced in the 1970s, will no longer be perceived by its fixity and/or as simply referential, in order to acquire, in the most multiple forums of discussion, a dynamic character, which is aligned to central questions of this renewed way of conceiving the world, Philosophy, and Epistemology. In parallel fashion, studies concerning the constitution of subjectivity point towards its oscillating status, showing how the subject is the product of multiple discourses, which make any demarcating of solid frontiers, a hard task. Therefore, one can observe an imbrication of the notions being and displacing, in which the appropriation of metaphors and the semantic scope around the notion of transience is shown to be constitutive of the literary text, performing a relevant role in the development of the plot and its characters. The present work aims at analyzing the novel Alias Grace (1996) by Margaret Atwood, under the light of Gender theory, in order to map the deconstruction of essentialisms around the protagonists, Grace Marks and Simon Jordan. In her book, Atwood gives voice to the historical figure Grace Marks, young Irish immigrant in the XIX century, which becomes mentor and accomplice of murder of her employer, Thomas Kinnear, and his mistress and governess of the house, Nancy Montgomery. It can be seen that, throughout the narrative, Grace will negotiate with the various borders that she delineates, and even crosses, as a means of expanding her identity through the systematic manipulation of language she engages with. In parallel fashion, Atwood creates a character that will play the role of this immigrants main interlocutor: Dr. Simon Jordan, a young American physician, whose personal trajectory was also marked by several displacements. In an anticipatory movement of the Freudian psychoanalysis, he is determined to unveil the mysteries of the human mind, revealing the truth behind Graces case in order to gain success and professional recognition. As we will demonstrate, the author establishes a criticism around masculinity, in which he will gradually lose everything that gives him status as a man of his times, within the set of expectations in that society. Furthermore, we will analyze a formal aspect employed along the pages of the novel: its paratextuality. Through this resource, we will see our reading of both the protagonists being reinforced in the constant slippery move between sources, documental and fictional, linked to that eras imaginary. In order to do that, works by Philip Wegner (2002) and Neil Smith (1993) around the notion of space, Bronwen Walter (2001), Lorna McLean and Marilyn Barber (2004) on the Irish immigration in Canada, Roland Barthes (1986), Gérard Genette (1987) and Linda Hutcheon (1990), regarding paratexts, as well as the studies by Chris Weedon (1987), Jane Flax (1990), R.W. Connell (1997), Judith Butler (1990), among others, around gender and postmodernism will serve as the theoretical apparatus for this investigation.

Esta dissertação analisa as representações literárias distópicas e de gênero construídas nos contos especulativos "Freeforall" (1986), de Margaret Atwood e "congenital Agenesis of Gender Ideation by K.N Sirsi and Sandra Botkin" (1998), de Raphael Carter. De temporalidade futurista, essas narrativas suscitam visões críticas sobre as identidades no que diz respeito aos modelos binários e às tendências estabilizadoras de gênero ainda fortemente perceptíveis em nossa cultura patriarcal. Observo as maneiras pelas quais as obras (des)constroem valores e conceitos pré estabelecidos socialmente. O estudo da representação dessa (des)construção é realizado através do enfoque nos entrecruzamentos entre os debates oriundos das teorias críticas sobre os gêneros literários cujos traços são identificados nas histórias (utopia, distopia, ficção científica) e do conhecimento produzido na área dos Estudos Culturais e de Gênero. Nesta interface, ênfase recai sobre a presença da ironia como estratégia literária importante, abordada em suas funções, conforme proposto por Linda Hutcheon, utilizada, neste trabalho, para entender o processo de interação comunicativa linguística e literária das obras. No conto de Atwood, enfoco os espaços em relação às dinâmicas sociais e a figuração da protagonista para argumentar que esses elementos engendram metáforas de um sistema heterossexual compulsório que visa à reprodução por meio da constituição de rígidas normas de gênero e de práticas de eugenia. Para tanto, os indivíduos são colocados em diferentes espaços, previamente estabelecidos e de acordo com sua função social. As Casas e o Freeforall são as espacialidades desta comunidade. O primeiro é o local dos escolhidos e, o último, entendido como um espaço heterotópico de desvio, conforme teoria desenvolvida por Foucault, é destinado àqueles desviantes em relação à norma. O jogo de palavras presente no título do conto e a análise da protagonista permitem um estudo da ironia. No conto de Carter, a (des)construção das noções cristalizadas de gênero se desenvolve por meio da ironia paródica, evidenciada pela incorporação crítica de práticas científicas e discursos acadêmicos. Finalmente, argumento que as representações ficcionais das distopias de gênero de Atwood e Carter, principalmente por meio da estratégia da ironia, questionam as configurações culturais de gênero convencionadas pela/na sociedade androcêntrica. Assim, as obras podem ser interpretadas sob um viés de leitura crítica feminista que, baseado numa concepção butleriana sobre a necessidade iminente de se desfazer gênero, busca desconstruir valores e visões normativas.

Full textThe present thesis intended to discuss some issues related to memory and intertextuality, taking as a starting point the different texts from Alias Grace (Vulgo Grace), written by the Canadian writer Margaret Atwood. The book retrieves the true story of Grace Marks, a maid sentenced to life imprisonment for being an accomplice to the murder of her employer and the housekeeper in the house where she used to work. Grace presented symptoms of amnesia, forgetting the facts that occurred in the murders. In that situation, a small committee who believe in Grace’s innocence hires the young American doctor Simon Jordan to discover the true reason for this apparent amnesia. In this context, a significant presence of memory and intertextuality as essential items of story could be observed. The method applied here was the focus on three parts: the first-person narration by Grace, the thirdperson narration about Simon and the paratexts. The analysis was made through the comparison between the different types of texts, based on intertextuality concepts stated by Júlia Kristeva and Tiphaine Samoyault and memory concepts presented by Márcio Seligmann-Silva, Michael Pollak, and Alba Olmi. Other concepts, such as the meanings of dreams, developed by Sigmund Freud, and the historiographic metafiction, elaborated by Linda Hutcheon, are also included in this analysis.

Full textWhen dealing with Atwood's poetry, critics often use the following terms : poems about Canada or "post-colonial"; "female-empowered"; "descent"; and metafictional". Atwood's poetry can indeed be read on different staves simultaneously - the personal, social, cultural and universal layers. In order to achieve this polyphony, Atwood's poetry resorts to the staging of a wide range of personae. However, beyond this game of vocal plurality, the reader distinctly hears the voice of a persona-soloist who sings out her particular truth. This dissertation highlights the singularity of this voice which bears the mark of a rich experience and wich is capable of cultivating two modes of functioning related to integration and independence. The critical tools which I resort to in order to show the originality of the Atwoodian voice are either philosophical tools focusing on vision, perception and reflection, or textual analysis tools which highlight the poetic quality at Atwood's work

Full textDenna uppsats ämnar studera transhumanism och dess roll I den antropogeniska pandemi som står I centrum I romanen, med avsikt att visa att transhumanistiska tankesätt var en drivande kraft bakom den. Genom att titta på transhumanistiska intressen i det beskrivna samhället och Crakes egna idéer, upptäcker en att Crake lyckades exploatera önskan om en förbättrad mänsklighet för att uppnå det ultimata transhumanistiska målet: det nästan perfekta och odödliga posthumana varelserna Crakers. Genom att analysera avsikterna bakom skapandet av dessa posthumana, och Snowmans förhållande till dem, blir det tydligt att the posthumana är en ersättning för redan existerande människor, eftersom de begärliga förmågor och egenskaper som de posthumana besitter endast kan anskaffas genom genteknik och inte genom att förändra individuella människor. Jag hoppas att ha visat att romanen innehåller en varning om transhumanism och det potentiella missbruket av vetenskap när en person tänker igenom något tills dess logiska slutpunkt.
