This study discusses queer theory as regards the portrayal of Orlando in Virginia Woolf's novel, Orlando: A Biography. The character is first analyzed in light of the intersections between gender, race, class, and nation, and subsequently in terms of the poetic persona, understood from both liberal and radical perspectives. The findings show that the character can be understood to destabilize gender fixity in the construction of a poetic persona, which confirms the tentative hypothesis. Findings also show that there is a conflict in the novel as it presents at the same time a transgressive text and a normatizing subtext, a conflict that must be criticized for its implications in cultural studies regarding queer theories, gender studies, and emancipatory politics. Este estudo discute teoria queer na caracterização de Orlando no romance de Virginia Woolf, Orlando: A Biography. O personagem é analisado primeiramente em relação às intersecções entre gênero, raça, classe e nação, e na seqüência em termos de persona poética, entendida tanto de uma perspectiva liberal quanto radical. Os resultados do estudo mostram que o personagem desestabiliza a fixidez de gênero na construção da persona poética, o que confirma a hipótese inicial do estudo. Os resultados também mostram que existe um conflito no romance por este conter ao mesmo tempo um texto transgressivo e um subtexto normatizante, conflito este que deve ser criticado por suas implicações nos estudos culturais de teorias queer, estudos de gênero e políticas emancipatórias.

Full textThe aim of this study is to analyse how pornography is used in the American comics X-Men, published by Marvel under the authorship of Chris Claremont.
I have applied Butler and MacKinnons theories about pornography as a performative speech, to this special art form. I have also investigated how censorship has influenced the comics evolution and whether it has affected the way women and sexual and ethnical minorities are represented. To corroborate how these theories apply, I have analysed three main female fig-ures in The X-Men comics - Storm, Phoenix and Shadowcat - and I have tried to identify how they relate to existing stereotypes.
The conclusion of this essay is that the women characters in X-Men break the existing stereo-types and create new implications. This reinforces Butler’s theory about the possibility to re-verse hate speech and diminishes MacKinnons perspective of pornography as an imperative.

Full textA migração tem ganho novos significados e expressões nas últimas décadas. Cabo Verde e as Filipinas possuem diásporas grandes em relação à sua população. Este estudo tenta aproximar dois mundos e olhar para fenómenos semelhantes num quadro maior. Este trabalho aborda as migrações femininas contemporâneas caboverdiana e filipina numa perspetiva comparativa. Segue uma orientação transnational e adota o enquadramento analítico transnacional. Problematiza a associação entre mulheres migrantes e a incapacidade de efetivamente negociar laços antigos e formar relações novas. É objetivo deste estudo investigar como as mulheres migrantes caboverdianas e filipinas vivem, definem, e negoceiam os seus relacionamentos com pessoas e lugares, dada a configuração transnacional da migração contemporânea. Nele argumento que elas reavaliam as suas relações e se apropriam delas seguindo ideias e critérios específicos resultantes das suas experiências migratórias. O meu estudo sugere que as mulheres migrantes são sujeitas histórica, social e culturalmente situadas, capazes de cultivar vínculos significativos. Elas não só possuem a capacidade de desenvolver relações significativas, mas estão também aptas a navegar um mar de identidades e pertenças múltiplas e sobrepostas.
Migration has gained new expressions and acquired new meanings in recent decades. Cape Verde and the Philippines have large diasporas in relation to their population. This study attempts to bring two worlds closer and view similar phenomena in a wider context. It explores contemporary Cape Verdean and Filipina female migrations in a comparative perspective. It is a transnational-oriented research guided by the analytical framework of transnationalism. It problematizes the association between migrant women and the inability to effectively manage old ties and form new bonds. It is my objective to discuss how Cape Verdean and Filipina migrant women live, define and negotiate their relationships with people and places, given the transnational configuration of contemporary migration. I argue that they reassess and appropriate these relationships with reference to distinct ideas and criteria resulting from their migratory experiences. My study suggests that migrant women are historically, socially and culturally situated subjects. Not only do they share the capacity to forge meaningful relationships, but they also navigate through a sea of multiple and overlapping identities and belongings.

Full textNo other topic has dominated the Nigerian literature as much as the Nigerian Civil War and female authors increasingly interfere in its literary representation. The thesis evaluates 34 literary texts by 16 female Nigerian authors - 12 novels and 22 short stories - and analyses them as distinctive corpus whose individual texts are in a state of dialogue both with each other and with texts from male authors. The female authors use, in their "war talk", literary strategies like "re-reading" and "re-writing" of texts from the "Centre". On the one hand, these strategies enable them to make the blind spots of a male dominated literary discourse apparent/visible on the other hand, they facilitate the negotiation of gender relations and of the war itself, its causes, trigger points and consequences. The female authors represent war as "sexual disorder", as gender war. The study shows that in order to be able to locate an author''s perspective (and to avoid rash conclusions) it is essential to consider the different factors determining it - besides ethnicity and gender, also age, race, the grade of emotional involvement or distance etc. It is in this regard, where the paratexts play an important part, as in these authors express their personal views and comments on the war. The thesis is located at the interfaces of several disciplines: literary, historical and gender studies. The introduction deals with the theoretical backgrounds in the context of war, literary representation and gender. The first chapter is dedicated to the historical context of the Nigerian Civil War including the role of women. The second chapter looks at the paratexts, different representations of the war''s causes, the self-image, the enemy''s image and the future. The third chapter finally deals with the question how the relationship between Civil War and gender war is negotiated/conveyed through the medium of the literary texts. In the conclusion the results are summarized and prospects for future research are discussed. The appendix contains a preliminary bibliography of all literary texts on the Nigerian Civil War written by female authors.

This thesis will study two transsexual and transgender novels, Angela Carter’s The Passion of New Eve (1982) and Leslie Feinberg’s Stone Butch Blues (1992), to investigate the two transsexual/transgender characters’ manipulation of the function of sex reassignment surgery and gender performativity to consider the problem of transsexual/transgender identity and sexual/gender disintegration. This study also further examines how the transsexual/transgender characters tackle the cultural construction of heterosexual hegemony, homosexual exclusivity, and sexual violence to re-embody their transsexual/transgender identity. Chapter one focuses on Angela Carter’s The Passion of New Eve to analyze the transsexual character Eve/lyn, who compulsorily accepts the sex reassignment surgery to engender the bodily metamorphosis of male-to-female body. Because of the bodily metamorphosis, Mother’s castration results in Eve/lyn not only censuring hers/his deconstruction of male subjectivity but also excluding her/his male-to-female body. Chapter two examines Eve/lyn’s embodiment of the stereotype of female images via gender performativity. In considering transsexual/transgender mind-body opposition and her/his imitation of other women’s behaviors, Eve/lyn condemns the binary sexual/gender mechanism which forcibly materializes the regulatory ideal of heterosexuality in cultural norms. Chapter three will examine the transgender character Jess Goldberg whose masculine woman image narrates his/her experience of shame in different situations and occasions in Leslie Feinberg’s Stone Butch Blues. Jess recognizes that his/her image as a masculine woman is always regarded as the other rather than a subject. Hence, in order to avoid shame and sexual violence, Jess decides to undergo a breast reduction surgery and inject male hormones, which hides his/her real biological sex to pertain to the normality of a masculine man in a heterosexual society. However, even though Jess successfully embodies a heterosexual man, the feeling of shame still affects his/her self-ambivalence with regard to his/her sexual/gender and self-identity. In the novel, the relation of shame and transgender experience is important to the exploration of the ambivalence of self-identity and the reconstruction of transgender subjectivity. In analyzing of Angela Carter’s The Passion of New Eve (1982) and Leslie Feinberg’s Stone Butch Blues (1992), issues of bodily metamorphosis, mind-body opposition, and the resistance of sexual violence point out the quandaries of the ambivalence of transsexual/transgender subjectivity, heterosexual hegemony, and homosexual exclusivity to further investigate the transsexual/transgender subjectivity and sexual diversity in our society.
