Bouchemal, Kamila. "Épistémologies et écritures du corps postcolonial dans les œuvres de Gisèle Pineau, Malika Mokeddem et Jamaica Kincaid". Electronic Thesis or Diss., Paris 8, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016PA080024.
Texto completo da fonteThis thesis proposes a new aesthetic of the female body through the analysis of texts of three migrant contemporary authors: Malika Mokeddem, Gisèle Pineau and Jamaica Kincaid. Postcolonial and feminist reading of the three authors reveal a body deficiency. The study of their works shows a body in crisis. Therefore, it is urgent to historicize it, but also to reinvent it.This thesis undertakes an epistemological reflection in their texts, in order to re-work the body. It aims at putting the female body into History, replacing it in the memory, remaking the genealogies and renewing the affiliations, reviving the women’s network and revolutionizing the subject of transmission. The analysis of mechanisms and tools of race and gender domination, helps to understand the different forms of resistance, and to identify the different exit strategies. Finally this work proposes to renew the body by diverting the discursive power and the patriarchal and imperialist rhetoric, through a counter-speech, decolonized and depatriarchalized. And also reinvent the body out of the dialectic of power, opening a postbody space/language
Fente, Elvira. "María Xosé Queizán, la renaissance d'une Antigone : l'esprit d'Antigone dans les personnages féminins de l'œuvre de María Xosé Queizán : métaphore de la valeur et la force de la femme galicienne contre le pouvoir et la domination masculine". Paris 8, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA083485.
Texto completo da fonteThis work aims to give María Xosé Queizán its rightful place as a theorist of feminism as a writer and Galician feminist. The socio-cultural construction of "being woman" is analyzed here through his speech, since the years after the Spanish Civil War, to today's society. The myth of Antigone appeared to us as the myth that comes to Queizán, the birth of feminism in Galicia long identified with Penelope. Transmission of patriarchal values through women who honor the system blindly, as opposed to the spirit of freedom of Antigone is a constant in her novels. The darkness in the formation and development of the domestic work of women is ensuring the survival of patriarchy. But in counterpoint, one can follow individual strategies of heroines around obstacles and sometimes become marginalized and lose, sometimes win and live their freedom
Ramdani, Karima. "Subjectivités (im)possibles : femmes, féminités et féminismes dans l’Algérie coloniale". Paris 8, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA084165.
Texto completo da fonteThe History of “indigenous” women in colonial Algeria has not yet been thoroughly treated. Official historiographies, both French and Algerian, have adopted dominating standpoints that make marginalised experiences, and voices, inaudible. This research aims at excavating peripheral memories and knowledge that inform about the various processes through which colonial, and patriarchal domination, makes marginalized practices and discourses invisible. Reaching those forgotten voices becomes an arduous task because of the scarcity and fragmentary character of the sources, and also because the interweaving of relations of power have rejected all that seems inappropriate, or out of the canon, outside the definition of political identities. The corollary of these intersecting power relations was the stranglehold of nationalisms on women's bodies, considered as both a means and an end, and the pressure put on women to embody the role of mothers of the nation. In this effort of "excavation", the present thesis attributes an important role to oral tradition as a heuristic source susceptible to open up to the multiple standpoints and sites of knowledge of women's experiences to whom the status of the subject has been denied. This work proposes to enlarge, and make more complex, the modern conception of the political subject, by focusing on its sudden, unforeseen dimension, the multiple forms it takes according to the context and the stakes at issue. Finally, it outlines the requirement of a history from below capable of including people like the women of this thesis - women who were speaking subjects and whose resistance has followed various, heterogeneous paths, including feminism
Wanjala, Alex Nelungo. "L'émergence et le développement de la voix féminine dans la littérature kenyane postcoloniale". Thesis, Paris 3, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009PA030173/document.
Texto completo da fonteThis study of Kenyan literature, which focuses specifically on female writers, is based on the premise that female writers, though prolific, have for a long time been neglected by literary critics, and even when focused upon, are lumped together with other so-called ‘Third world’ female writers. Thus, the idiosyncrasies in their particular works are very often overlooked. This study seeks to correct this by undertaking an in-depth study of each of the novels explored, while at the same time using each of them to undertake a study of the Kenyan society with particular attention to the situation of the woman as depicted in the texts. The novel, which is here the primary source, is examined as a cultural tool. Given the large number of novels that have been written by Kenyan women writers, this study uses a case-oriented methodology to select a few novels that are used as representative samples for Kenyan writing by women. The texts selecte! d cover a long time period; published from the mid-sixties just after Kenya’s independence, to the outset of the present millennium. The study is guided by theories that are drawn from postcolonial studies, cultural studies, and gender studies. It is our hope that this study gives a comprehensive state of the art survey on the Kenyan novel, with a specific focus on the state of the Kenyan woman, thus clearing the way for similar studies to be carried out on women writers not only in Kenya, but in the other countries in the East African region and the African continent at large
Mozziconacci, Vanina. "Le sujet du féminisme peut-il faire l'objet d’une éducation ? Essai sur les théorisations féministes de la relation et de l'institution". Thesis, Lyon, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017LYSEN044/document.
Texto completo da fonteThis thesis examines and seeks to resolve some paradoxes in feminist conceptions of education. Dominant paradigms in first- and second-wave French feminism conceptualize education in ways that discount one of its fundamental aspects: either its social or its individual nature. While first-wave liberal feminism tends to promote a form of educational individualism, second-wave materialist feminism only considers education through the lens of socialization. Both paradigms fall prey to substantialism because they reify either the individual or society, and thus forget that the two stand in relation to each other. Contemporary Anglo-Saxon feminist pedagogies avoid these symmetrical pitfalls thanks to a relational conceptualization of education. Starting from a definition of consciousness as relation, these theories conceptualize “consciousness raising” as a dialectics between individual consciousness and collective consciousness. In this perspective, the feminist subject is neither the individual woman as rights-bearer nor the social class of women as produced by domination. Instead, the feminist political subject is defined by a specific relation to the condition of women. Nevertheless, subjectivist tendencies within feminist pedagogies reveal that building this relation requires rethinking educational institutions; otherwise feminist pedagogy can become a depoliticized practice. Because educational institutions contribute to producing the hierarchical division between productive and reproductive labor, they must be radically transformed. Such work can be done through a political project of care at the institutional level

Texto completo da fonteStarting from the assumption that Theodor W. Adorno's work is still relevant, this thesis proposes a feminist updating of his critique of alienation. In the first part, gender issues at the Institut für Sozialforschung (IfS) are explored in order to shed light on the following paradox: while these issues gave rise to flourishing research at the beginning of the Institute's history, they underwent a surprising eclipse, precisely from the time of Adorno's official integration into the Institut für Sozialforschung in 1938, and even if his reflection on gender-related alienation seemed to be the most radically critical. The evolution of the treatment of gender issues from the legacy of the last Marx to Adorno through the important phase of Erich Fromm's transition to the Institute is examined. A second part of the work is then devoted to the critical interpretation of the figures of femininity in Adorno's work. The thread of Adorno's dialectic between history and nature [Naturgeschichte] allows us to overcome their appearance of totally alienated figures, even against Adorno's first intention, to consider them in their historicity, going beyond, in a materialist way, the binary alternative between essentialism and constructivism, without concluding to a femininity which would be "already there". Finally, we show that the feminist potential of Adornian thought is to be found in the least explicitly feminist corpus. The Negative Dialectic (1966) can thus offer the conceptual resources of an anti-capitalist and feminist thought of alienation, which is capable of operating a synthesis between the new theories of alienation and the properly feminist critique of alienation and reification
Oprescu, Mihaela. "Genre et médias : des mouvements féministes aux recherches sociologiques et psychologiques : étude en réception sur l'évaluation des discours beauté / jeunesse de la presse féminine par des femmes au "genre psychologique" différent". Paris 3, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008PA030126.
Texto completo da fonteThe study of gender and media is a theme approached by the feminist critique, which is interested primarily in stereotyped representations of women in media messages. Gender stereotypes in the media are supposed to have negative effects on women’s image and on the evolution of gender roles in society. Often, the influence of stereotypes on the formation of gender identities is considered automatic and uniform. But the audience negotiate the meaning of a media message. A contract is established between the source of the message and the audience, which is far from being passive. A great number of sociological and psychological factors can influence the reception of gender messages. One of these factors is the psychological gender, concept of the psychological androgyny theory which describes the tendency of an individual of adopting traditional feminine or masculine behaviour, independently on their biological sex. We presented feminine press articles containing beauty and youth stereotypes and counter-stereotypes to women having a different psychological gender, masculine and feminine, in order to observe possible differences in the evaluation of the articles. Our results show that “masculine” women asses better press articles containing counter-stereotypes of beauty and youth, while “feminine” women asses better stereotypes articles. Psychological gender determine the direction of their evaluation and influence the process of identification with the feminine models proposed in feminine press articles
Besnard-Santini, Tiphaine. "Usages et mésusages des théories du sexuel dans le discours et la clinique "psy" en France contemporaine". Thesis, Paris 8, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015PA080087/document.
Texto completo da fonteRevolutionaries and essential in Freudian thought, sexual theories gradually lost their transgressive role in contemporary psychoanalysis to become copies of social standards. This thesis proposes to study the effects of these theories on the capacity of French therapists to listen, from from a thorough analysis of Freudian and post-Freudian literature, but also of the dissidents and critical works of this current. This was in the aim to try on the hypothesis that, due to the content of the French psy training, therapists are badly prepared to listen, understand and help their patients in the expression of their sexual lives
Meyer, Jennifer. "La genèse du racial-féminisme. Race, classe et genre autour de Pia Sophie Rogge-Börner". Thesis, Lyon, École normale supérieure, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014ENSL0931.
Texto completo da fonteTaking on the extensive debate on intersectionality, this doctoral thesis examines the interlocking of the categories race, class and gender as well as the articulation of feminism, anti-Semitism and racism in the writings of Sophie Rogge-Börner (1878-1955). Firstly, this project exposes the mechanisms of racialization of the power relations between the sexes which were at work in the production of an equivalence between the Nordic “race” and gender equality as well as in the ascribing of a “Jewish” character to patriarchy. The thesis then describes Rogge-Börner’s explanation for the advent of male domination as a result of racial mixing and degeneration and confronts it with her assertion of the constructed character of sexual difference. Furthermore, the project analyses the concrete demands of a discourse which presents female emancipation as a potential limited by racial origin as well as the condition for racial regeneration. The thesis shows that the reference to ahistorical and essentialist categories could be the basis for an egalitarian but non-universalist understanding of feminism. Finally, the project looks at the persistence of these ideas within the New Right.In consciously avoiding a normative definition of feminism, this thesis shows how a political emancipatory movement, on the one hand, produced new exclusions and hierarchies among women and, on the other hand, provided new arguments to the racial and anti-Semitic discourse during the Weimar Republic and the Third Reich. The thesis thus brings to light a specific intricacy of racial and sexual dominance
Karagyozova, Tanya. "Genre et tradition : circulation, réception et appropriation de la « question féminine » dans la culture balkanique slavophone au XXème siècle". Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015USPCA184.
Texto completo da fonteOver the course of 20th century Balkan history, the advancement of women in the paid economy, education, and female activism had concretized itself as prominently as throughout Europe. Within the context of Balkan Slavic culture in general, and its translation within the national domain of Bulgaria in particular, the precise conditions of this evolution resulted from a compromise of the inevitable criteria of a distinct relationship to tradition. We intend to illuminate and situate this context, rarely approached in the discourse of women’s studies, and even less from a feminist perspective. This examination aims to undertake two challenges: A general analysis of “The woman question” as discourse, and further, a more critical observation on the nature of resistance against ambitions of emancipation. While not claiming to be exhaustive, the objective is to put into perspective the theoretical contributions of reflection on hierarchical representations of gender diversity, and the territorial nuances that we explore. Addressing revisions of “The woman question” is to invite the notion of renewing models of femininity, to rethink the effects of discourse, and to reflect on the role of women in the process. Finally, a second glance at the eventful history of the second half of the 20th century, executed under the prism of gender, explores the most distorted in the aesthetic of communist regimes. The purpose of this study is to shed light on the social realities of women in the socialist era in parallel with traditionalist discourse as we retrace the cross of European, Oriental, orthodox, folklore, and modern influences in Slavic literature. Thus, from this approach emerge new prospects for understanding Women’s Studies in the Slavic Balkans in general, and Bulgaria in particular
Wang, Su. "Les identités féminines et la masculinité/féminité en Chine". Paris 10, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA100209.
Texto completo da fonteThis thesis, which is part of gender studies, focuses on women's identities and masculinity/femininity in China and seeks to generate theoretical and empirical elements that respond to the following question: why, in a socialist country of more than sixty years, with a gender equality policy, radical inequalities still dominate? Three studies are proposed. The first is a genealogy work of the term "sex" which is based on the study of social discourses during Chinese modernization for the analysis of the terminology "woman" in Feminisms of different periods. Through this work, we try to understand why there is a "feminine" life in China, and how masculinities/femininities construct the "man" and "woman" in the Chinese context. The second study will be built on the social context generated by the first study and will analyze the specific case of gender representations in Chinese textbooks. The idea is to see how gender differences arise in this instrument of socialization, and if they present unequal elements that contradict the gender equality policy of the socialist state. Finally, through the study of interviews with women from the city of Chengdu, all these elements analyzed together allow us to propose a reading of female life, organized according to the implicit social practices and that make possible to observe the inconsistencies of the regulatory practices of identity

Sweet, Anne. "Le Girl Power en question dans Xena Warrior Princess et Charmed : enjeux sociaux et commerciaux dans des politiques de genre". Thesis, Paris 3, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA030159.
Texto completo da fonteThis thesis investigates the social and economic issues at play in the politics of gender. Hence it delves into the phenomenon of Girl Power, or the « power of girls », and examines the discourses renegotiated around gender through analysis of TV series’ heroines from the 1990s. In contrast with series from the 1970s, which were influenced by the second wave of feminism, the series from 1990-2000 inscribed themselves more in the sphere of influence of feminism’s third wave. These series have provoked debates about issues of televisual violence and feminism. The corpus is principally composed of two Girl Power series, Xena: Warrior Princess and Charmed, which symbolize women’s power because they are centered on action heroines. These were successful series that were broadcast for several seasons and whose icons continue to disseminate in American popular culture. The analysis of these series is organized into two parts: the first part examines respresentations of Girl Power and its ambiguities, while the second part focuses on the negotiation of discourses of power and gender. The interpretation of these symbols of women’s power is not fixed, and blurs gender borders, notably in showing masculinity in crisis. TV series about violent women are commercial products. Yet they have had an impact on American culture in underlining the contradictions and tensions between the two waves of feminism. They have also affected the lives of the communities of fans, who sustain relationships with the series through web sites and social networks

Texto completo da fonteThis dissertation is about the comparative historiography of women's history and gender history in China and in France from the 1980s on. It aims to compare for both historiographies the background of the intellectual emergences, the methods of research and historical writing (definitions, choice of subject and object, research paradigms, intellectual debates, translations and usages of key words and categories, models of periodization, influence of the Anglo-American historiography), and the temporality of productions and receptions (generations of researchers, temporalities of journals, associations and institutes, conferences, seminars, etc. ) in the institutionalization and pedagogical transmission. The dissertation particularly focuses on transnational circulations: whether they be dialogues, misunderstandings, or mutual complementarity. Based on works of the past thirty years, this doctoral research reflects on the categories and classifications used by the historians of both countries, in order to demonstrate the academic legitimacy of the comparative historiography of women, feminism and anti-feminism, and of gender through the method of connected categories
Férey, Norman. "La déconstruction du corps et des sexualités dans les performances artistiques en France de 1970 à 2000 : vers une prise en compte de la notion de genre". Paris 8, 2014. http://octaviana.fr/document/182002225#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0.
Texto completo da fonteDuring the 90s, the concept of gender related to the cultural context of the body hardly had a place in the intellectual sphere. Did this concept spread itself more easily in the field of performance? From the 70s onward and right after the impulse given by 68 movements, the body took an important protest role in the creative process, in particular regarding gender deconstruction: that is the development of body art. Several artists tried through this medium to find a Body fundament which could bring an answer to cultural issues related to sexual differences. Later in the 80s, performance art became less subversive. The global political environment was changing and the body was more visible especially on screens. Two mains positions emerged among French artists: one focused more on words and an immaterial approach and the other using technology and media to explore the body. In both cases, the relationship between the artist and the deviant bodies that they used is far from clear. The “minority bodies” were more to be found in the militant and activist sphere. In the 90s, arguments about topics to do with secularism and the alarming raise of HIV would finally push the performers to reconsider the political dimension of gender and identity questions. Therefore, in this last decade, the concept of gender found its legitimacy in the artistic field even though the relationship between creative process and political activism still seems problematic and not that active
Desceul, Lise. "La paire fait les pair·e·s : herméneutiques lesbiennes et représentations féministes de la femme hindoue". Thesis, Bourgogne Franche-Comté, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018UBFCH004.
Texto completo da fonteThis analysis aims at denouncing the original myths of the feminine and the masculine, inherited of the sexual cultural politics uprighted in the crucible of the colonial encounter. The study of A Married Woman (Manju Kapur), Babyji (Abha Dawesar), Indian Tango (Ananda Devi), three novels presenting lesbianism as a feminist strategy of emancipation, allows to excavate various discursive dynamics, to exploit the concept of representation, and to interrogate the preexisting categories. These three novels are indeed written by women belonging to the Indo-Hindu culture, and offer heroines with troubling similarities: Brahmines, Delhiites and dissatisfied with the repressions and inertia of their gender. The heteropatriarcal prejudice suffocates the individuals tackled at the intersection of their several and overlapping identity belongings: gender, culture, sexuality… These heroines’ paths hence follow an evolution interrogating the patriarchal inventions of the Indo-Hindu woman’s identity. Beyond the exposition and accusation of its essentialization’s deviations, it is its transgression which is dazzling, because it is sexual and lesbian, introducing the possibilities of an alterity, an alternative, a different becoming. These texts thus question the poetry and efficiency of a lesbian aesthetic, the demiurge validity of a lesbian utopia, and the symbolism of a pattern unifying the paper women and the women writers in a positioning rejecting the implicit subalternity of oppressive and obsolete categories. By getting a hold of ipseity, these narrations introduce a queer poetic defying determinisms, crystallizations, norms and hierarchies. They open to radical and multiple possibilities of living and creating, indicating the materiality of subversive marginalities which problematize the very notion of individual, envisioned in its hypermodern perspective

Texto completo da fonteThe feminist movements that arose in the 1970’s, promoting a radical contestation of patriarchy and committed to “women’s liberation”, helped challenge gender relations in many areas. Built upon an empirical research that combines archival work, questionnaires and interviews, my dissertation focuses on the women who took part in these mobilizations in France. It aims to understand how the involvement in this movement, characterised by the politicization of the private sphere, transformed “common” activists’ trajectories and those of their children. Using a local and comparative approach, this work first analyses the contexts in which the feminists evolved and were socialised. By tracing the feminist mobilizations that unfolded in Lyons and Grenoble between 1970 and 1984, it also revisits the history of the “second wave” French women’s movements. The study of the feminists’ activist careers then highlights the lasting socialising effects of their commitments and the impact they had on different areas of their life. Likewise, the use of sequence analysis reveals the trajectories they followed until present day, both from a political and personal prospect. Finally, a deeper focus on the activists who became mothers uncovers how intergenerational transmission of feminism occurred and which political contents the children inherited. In particular, this dissertation proposes several factors that help understand the differentiated appropriations of this heritage among the second generation

Texto completo da fonteIn order to form our hypothesis, it would be necessary to examine the scientific discourse on gender and its application to the greek case, and this is what we tried to do in our introduction. Our study was organized in five large parts. The first one approaches the formation of greek diaspora from the end of the 18th century to the revolutions of 1917 and the woman representation in pontic-greek historiography. The second one approaches the access of women in education, the ways of integration in the new soviet society. The preservation of the cultural roles leads us to develop a typology between “greek” women and “soviet” women. The third part focuses on the reformation or disappearance of the roles during political repressions that would have an impact on greek diaspora. Furthermore, we discussed on the women-victims of purges. Finally, the last part demonstrates that the exile constituted a rupture with the past, at least as it resulted from its protagonists’ oral testimonies. The women who talked about themselves and the men surveyed on gender issues give us an original image of the past, worthy of interest

Texto completo da fonteThe comparative study of Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl (Harriet Jacobs), Our Nig ; Sketches from the Life of a Free Black (Harriet Wilson), and The Bondwoman’s Narrative (Hannah Crafts) aims at opening up new perspectives on the specificity of the female subject, through the slave narrative’s autobiographical writing. If these women writers stand as privileged witnesses of the female condition in Antebellum America, they do not remain passive nonetheless. The aim of this dissertation is to approach the links between « writing » and « feminine », by taking into account the text itself, be it autobiographical or fictionalized. Significantly enough, self-consciousness, identity and the construction of a self through writing are definitely major components of the African American literary tradition in which outstanding voices are singled out. The slave narrative tends to drift away from autobiography in order to afford its survival and conforms to the conventions that proved successful, thus revealing the truth of the subject. In this perspective, gender is the key issue of this study which brings an exclusive insight on black women’s writing. Discursive difference, writing the female body, and a staged conflicted subject are the core themes of this work. As a follower of Dickens and Byron, Hannah Crafts creates a unique blend of genres, while Harriet Wilson’s modus operandi is to rewrite Emerson’s reflections on society, and Harriet Jacobs offers a subversion of the sentimental novel. By all means, these female slave narratives’ « tour de force » lies in the aesthetics and poetics of the genre located at the crossroads of autobiography, sentimental fiction, the gothic and the picaresque. The subject determines its own sexuation, which enables the female subject to break free from the male subject. This dissertation also offers the opportunity to raise the question of history and literature. The slave narrative falls within the frame of literature as the writer’s political stance is an invitation to reconsider avant-garde women’s literary production within the African American literary canon
Feole, Eva. "Mots incarnés et corps illisibles. L'oeuvre littéraire de Monique Wittig". Thesis, Lyon, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017LYSES040.
Texto completo da fonteEven if Monique Wittig was a very talented writer, she has been especially studied as an essayist. At the center of both her fictional and political universes is the human body. First of all, I intend to examine the relationship between the body of the text and the human body described in the text. The attention that Wittig pays to the body of the text is interrelated to her idea of language. According to her, language can operate a “plastic surgery” on reality. In the same way, the book as an object and the act of reading can operate on the perception of one’s identity and body. In other words, the language has a material side that affects our everyday life. It can seem a banal statement, but Wittig goes further in her thought: words hurt us and cooperate in the development of social injustices and class hierarchies. On account of this, my research aims to investigate this particular kind of violence that literary texts and common language perform on our bodies. Finally, Wittig’s lesbian characters will be analyzed in the last part of my work. The body of this peculiar lesbian protagonist is traditionally represented as ambiguously monstrous and scary. Wittig takes this tradition back and she manipulates it in order to show how lesbian bodies are vulnerable and strong at the same time. In short, Wittig’s lesbian characters are not simply women who love other women: they are people who do not fit in the heteronormative binary system and whose bodies are made of and from words, and it is through words that they can create a different reality
Gérardin-Laverge, Mona. "Le langage est un lieu de lutte : la performativité du langage ordinaire dans la construction du genre et les luttes féministes". Thesis, Paris 1, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018PA01H223/document.
Texto completo da fonteHow is gender constructed and deconstructed in ordinary practices of language? First of all, I demonstrate that ordinary language philosophy – and more specifically the austinian theory of speech acts – can lay the ground for a constructivist approach and help to understand the role of language in the social construction of gender. I show that gender is naturalized both by our representation of language itself – as a mere reflect of reality and as an unequally shared “capacity” – and by ordinary and scientific practices of language. Understanding this idea involves going beyond the dichotomy of ideological and material, in order to analyze construction and representation of gender together in both discursive and non-discursive practices. Butler’s theory of gender performativity makes it possible to understand both construction and deconstruction, or the contingency of gender. But does not highlighting the strength of this construction lead to deny our power and agency? To answer this question, I study feminist discursive practices. I highlight transformative power of subversions and insurrectional speech acts. I analyze discursive practices of denaturalization that challenge both social and discursive orders, and practices that use language performativity to change the social conditions that give power to speech acts. These practices deconstruct gender and produce political and collective subjects: a radical constructivist approach to gender thus opens rich perspectives for feminism and collective activism

Originating in frescoes painted by women on the margins of androcentric Brahmanic values, the globalised commercial artification of paintings has led to creative, discursive and social reconfigurations, moving the Mithila painters from the periphery to the centre.The setup of more than 500 exhibitions in 36 countries (1935-2019) illustrates an acceleration in the circulation of artified artworks and their creators from the global South, who are enjoying forms of recognition in a dominant art world from which they are frequently excluded, due to multiple oppressions (gender, caste, class, North/South and urban/rural divides). The connected history of the transnational reception of their art can be traced from the late colonial and post-independence moment to the postmodern moment, in connection with the global turn that was catalysed by the indophile and countercultural kairos of the Long Global Sixties. Critical thinking that advocates empowerment, based on the nexus between feminisms and countercultural indophilia, fosters a commitment to the artification of transcultural mediators.The late colonial and post-independence moment is represented by M. and W. Archer and Indian government artist-mediators such as U. Maharathi, the founder of the Patna Design Institute. The Archers employ practices an organic conception of art and a universal aesthetics, which is linked to Freudism and the avant-garde, to interpret practices. Maharathi, an independence leader, exhibits and commercialises Mithila art. His ambitions for heritagisation resonates with the assertion of an Indianness linked to the construction of national identity. Commercial artification began to develop in the 1930s, preceding an agrarian, food and political crisis (1966-67) that acted as a catalyst for global circulation and the legitimisation of painters. With the entry into the first phase of globalisation of the reception, that of the countercultural indophilia, transcultural mediators (Y. Véquaud, E. Moser Schmitt, R. and N. Owens, T. Hasegawa) are situated within a post-Bourdieusian transnational cultural field characterised by an array of tensions, ideological convergences (feminism, social justice) and dissonances: artistic and literary bohemia vs. anthropology applied to development; intensification of global trade flows vs. critical countercultural idealism and village community utopia. The ephemeral convergence of (counter)cultural brokers and Indian mediators around an alternative model has given rise to a kairos and a transcultural, decompartmentalised art world. This nexus between mediators constructs feminist figures of painters around an art of the margins and creative resistance.The postmodern moment of late globalisation introduces a discursive plurality and the deconstruction of reified, androcentric and primitivist visions of the Global North, as well as the ‘liberal feminism-development-tourism' triangulation. The paintings are reinterpreted in terms of a ‘multiple contemporaneity' centred on flux, or of overlapping translocal and subversive identities, in the prism of postcolonial and gender shifts.The countercultural kairos is unique in the history of the reception of Maithil art, whose ephemeral convergence of artificators is often overshadowed. This paves the way for global circulation, the construction of a transnational field, and the deconstruction of the value of ‘authenticity'. The art of women painters enters the globalised contemporary scene, reappraised in the terms of transnational canons. This has resulted in transfers and hybridisations between counterculture and feminism, in India and in the Global North. An artistic incubator and a catalyst for the women's movement is being forged, open to inclusive feminism and creative effervescence, which serve as levers for a paradigm shift in the renewal of Mithila artists
Bernard, Lucie. "Les filles qui aimaient les vampires : la construction de l'identité féminine dans Twilight de Stephenie Meyer et deux autres séries romanesques de bit lit, Vampires Diaries et House of Night". Thesis, Brest, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016BRES0013.
Texto completo da fonteSupernatural romance (or 'bit lit' in French) is a contemporary literary genre which associates sen-timental and vampiric stories and is primarily aimed at a female teenage audience. It acquired global visibility in 2005 with the publication of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight. This literary movement takes up one of the most recurring and central themes of Western love stories and vampire stories alike: the construction of the feminine, of its positioning and its interactions with an essentially hos-tile and dangerous environment. Despite very conservative and even reactionary representations, the genre has met a huge success among young women. It is thus necessary to question this ap-parent contradiction: why do exclusively female writers and mostly female readers write and read sentimental stories that can be qualified at best as 'hardly feminist'? To do so, the current study focuses on three supernatural romance series: Twilight by Stephenie Meyer, The Vampire Diaries by L. J. Smith and House of Night by P. C. and Kristin Cast. It relies on three approaches: cultural and reception studies, narratology and gender studies. The literary influences that inform the nov-els, the reading mode they incite and the narrative choices they unfold are analyzed in order to understand how they stage the encounter between the feminine subject and a patriarchal worldview
Courau, Thérèse. "L’ordre sexué du discours : le positionnement de Luisa Valenzuela dans le champ littéraire argentin". Thesis, Toulouse 2, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012TOU20060.
Texto completo da fonteThis work being part of the tradition in feminist studies, grasps the position of Luisa Valenzuela woman writer, in the Argentinian field towards the issue of gender relations in literature. The writing of her novels stretches from the seventies to nowadays, the path of Valenzuela, who has gone through the entire institutionalization steps of feminist position and has brought them as theme in her work, appears symbolic of women writers of her generation towards the sexual order of literary discourse. Considering the strategies of the woman writer in context, we put forward a “rehistoricisation” of gender relations towards literary legitimacy. We analyse what is at stake in discourses that attend as much the structure of mannishistic of literary field on the exclusion of women as the subversive inclusion that allowed the nineteen nineties women writers to negotiate a position of justified statement. What is the role fictional discourses and critical metatexts play that call the differences of sexes in the building of enunciative authority? How the feminist discourses managed to get hold of the relations between creation and sexual identities? What original variations towards these enunciative feminist patterns does Valenzuela put forward in her work? This hereby study tackles these questions through an analysis of the structure of feminist and male chauvinism positioning that tends to identify the protagonists, the issues and the strategies that characterize this struggle where Valenzuela path gets sense

Texto completo da fonteJohn Stuart Mill and William Stanley Jevons are key representatives of transition to Marginalism in Economy. At the same time, they both claim to be a part of Utilitarianism, a philosophical theory known for its connections with feminism. Though, their demands about women are quite divergent: if Mill recommends egalitarian reforms and disagrees with Factory Acts restricting women’s employment, Jevons adheres to the whole of the restrictive laws passed in the 19th Century and advocates the prohibition of mothers of young children employment in factories. This apparent contradiction is solved if Mill and Jevons opposition is considered as a symbol of a more general break up between Classical Utilitarians and Early Marginalists on the question of women. Mill, on this subject, is in line with Classical Utilitarians: like them, he considers that women’s interests should be equal to men’s ones and he draws conclusions from that. He extends Jeremy Bentham’s – regarded as the father of Classical Utilitarianism – breakthroughs to a greater consideration of women’s interests by economists. As for Jevons, he appears to be representative of these authors from the latter third of 19th Century who admittedly raised the question of women but whose position seems to make a step backwards compared to their predecessors’. In this way, several Marginalists, like Marshall, define home as the ideal place of women’s expression, the place where they accomplish their primary function, reproduction. Analysis of Mill and Jevons opposition then gives elements of answer to the following question: How is it that Early Marginalists, after the Classical Utilitarians’ breakthroughs to a better consideration of women and their issues in economy, have sent them back to the place these men consider women belong – home?

Texto completo da fonteBoth in the field of psychoanalysis and in that of feminist and queer studies, different perspectives conceive the identity “women” as a kind of imaginary unification. However, once we recognize the importance of desessentialization, we cannot deny the existence of differentiated vulnerabilities. This tension placed, our objective is to think about the category “women” under the assumption that if there is nothing “genuinely feminine”, but there is indeed a differentiated vulnerability, that category can only be defined by the oppression experienced by them. In order to question psychoanalysis about some feminist perspectives’ contributions, we outline a theoretical-conceptual methodology guided by the “situated knowledge” theoretical-methodological approach based on a theoretical framework anchored in psychoanalysis, notably Freud and Laplanche, and in feminist perspectives. Appealing to propositions outwards identity approaches, such as performativity according to Judith Butler and positions in social relations provided by materialist feminism perspectives, we achieve a non-essentialist understanding of the category “women”, characterized by positions in social relations bounded to concrete and varied forms of oppression, which cannot be understood outside multiple and imbricated social relations. In this perspective, “becoming a woman” can be defined by the experience of oppression, which psychoanalysis allows us to situate as operative standards, such as the principle of gender hierarchy, that at the same time that work reveal their flaw, in the way that is posed to the child as an enigma to translate. Understanding the notion of “women” in those terms allows us to locate gender oppressions, as well as to articulate what would be the “specificity of psychoanalysis” considering the imbrications between discourse (or the field of representation) and materiality
Tanto no âmbito da psicanálise quanto nos campos dos estudos feministas e queer, diferentes perspectivas concebem a identidade “mulheres” como uma espécie de unificação imaginária. No entanto, uma vez reconhecida a importância da dessessencialização, não podemos negar a existência de vulnerabilidades diferenciadas. A partir dessa tensão, nosso objetivo é pensar a categoria “mulheres” segundo a hipótese de que, se não há nada de “autenticamente feminino” e, ao mesmo tempo, existe uma vulnerabilidade diferenciada, tal categoria não pode ser definida senão em virtude de sua opressão. A partir de um referencial teórico ancorado na psicanálise, notadamente Freud e Laplanche, bem como em perspectivas feministas, delineamos uma metodologia de pesquisa teórico-conceitual, orientada pela abordagem teórico-metodológica dos “saberes situados”, a fim de interrogar a psicanálise a partir de inflexões ocasionadas por perspectivas feministas. Fazendo recurso a proposições não-identitárias, tais como a performatividade em Judith Butler e as contribuições de perspectivas feministas materialistas no que se refere a posições nas relações sociais, chegamos a uma compreensão não essencialista da categoria “mulheres”, caracterizada por posições nas relações sociais que circunscrevem formas concretas e variadas de opressão, as quais não podem ser compreendidas senão a partir de relações sociais múltiplas e imbricadas. Nessa perspectiva, o “tornar-se mulher” pode ser concebido enquanto a experiência mesma da opressão, que a psicanálise permite situar a partir de normas operantes – por um princípio de hierarquia de gêneros – ao mesmo tempo em que sempre existe algo que falha, uma vez que essa hierarquia se coloca para a criança como um enigma a traduzir. Esa abordagem possibilita situar opressões gênero-específicas, assim como articular o que seria a “especificidade da psicanálise”, levando em consideração as imbricações entre discurso (ou o campo da representação) e materialidade
Legrand, Amélie. "Les romancières sous la Restauration : réception, construction des identités de genre, histoire du roman". Thesis, Paris 4, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010PA040195.
Texto completo da fonteFrom the end of the XVIIIth century, women had access to reading and writing on a much broader scale, and they began to take over the public scene, which was until then mainly reserved to men. Under the Restoration particularly, the number of women novelists and their works increased. However, few of these women who were very successful in their time are known nowadays. Their production is associated to a sentimental novel considered a feminine subgenre, less noteworthy than the realist novel which appeared around 1930. The present work offers to reconstruct the literary field of the Restoration era in order to question this representation. This consists first in observing how women novelists are received, at a time when the government tries to reassert a traditional division of gender roles and identities, in order to give France a new stability after the sociohistorical upheavals resulting from the French Revolution. Understanding the historical background of the literary field will then enable us to understand the determinations hanging over the ethos of women novelists and their aesthetic strategy. In the light of their theoretical positioning, the analysis of their works will finally be aimed at reevaluating to what extent they contributed to the constitution of the history of the novel, and measuring, within this history, the influence of gender relations
Fortin, Maria. "De pré-textes en prétextes : Le cinéma d'Arturo Ripstein". Thesis, Littoral, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015DUNK0420.
Texto completo da fonteThis research explores Arturo Ripstein's cinema, and focuses more particularly on a corpus of films which are all based on pre-existent works. The notion of "pre-text" refers to the latter, whose originsare in most cases leterary, but also cinematographic. The analysis of Ripstein's reworking saims at highlighting the pretext hiding behind the use of the pre-text. In other words, for each of the eight selected movies, we try to reveal the message the artist wished to convey, or the underlying intention of the creative act. The local/global dialectic is present throughout the whole thesis. It is first visible in its structure, given that our work takes as its starting point Mexican pre-texts, then examines Third World productions, and finally the pre-texts originating in European culture. But this dialectic is also illustrated, in the different parts of our work, through the phenomena of intertextuality or interfilmicity, and the strategies of production give Ripstein's cinema a transnational dimension

Texto completo da fonteThe feminization of a field of higher education is a complex phenomenon in terms of adjustments and reconfigurations of individual practices and choices. The consequences of an evolution from a mixed-sex situation cannot be observed only on a one-dimensional scale. Gender, as a social report nested in a set of inseparable social identity reports constituting of educational and vocational guidance, represents a relevant conceptual tool for the analysis of adjustments in terms of perceptions (gender-based perceptions of career and orientation choices and professions). This thesis is based on the results of a survey by questionnaire of scientific students in secondary schools but also on qualitative data from a longitudinal study by interviews with students in medical studies. The aim of this thesis is to analyze the consequences of this feminization on medical studies in terms of educational and vocational guidance of both genders and in terms of personal projections. Our research aims to contribute to the understanding of evolution and complex configurations of the principle of bi-categorization of sex from educational and vocational guidance

Texto completo da fonteThe birth of the active female main character of the horror film in the 1970s has a significant impact on the genre of horror : this phenomenon prompted the emergence of new sub-genres (the slasher, the woman's horror film, the horror film/family melodrama and the action/horror to whom the Alien series gives birth in the 2000s). These sub-genres differ in their narrative structure, their production mode and the type of audience they address. Each of them grants the leading role to a different type of female character. From 1970 till 2007, the relationship of the female protagonists of horror film to the society in which they live, their body and their sexuality evolves. While in the 1970s, most of the heroic women of the genre are independent women, between 1980 and 1995, they become sacrificial mothers, and from 1996 to 2007, the independent women resurface again but are often single mothers. The ability of these female characters to become heroes or monsters is also affected by their relationship to their body : those who cannot control the "changeable nature" of their biology (i.e. those who become pregnant or have their period) turn into monsters, while those who can contain their bodies and sexual desires survive. The chronological analysis of these sub-genres shows that their discourse on their female main protagonists and the way it evolves are influenced by the different feminist currents that come to birth in the United States from 1970 till 2007 and by the backlash(es) against them

Texto completo da fonteThis research aims to describe and analyze gender representations present in fashion series of women's magazines. Taking for theoretic bases the sociology of body and the sociology of fashion, this work uses, for the analysis, methodologies borrowed from the disciplinary field of sciences of information and communication for the study of media devices. Analyzing a corpus of fashion pictures produced by three French feminine magazines (ELLE, Cosmopolitan and Femme Actuelle), this study aims to examine the processes of activation and unfreeze for the stereotypes of female identity. Mobilizing interaction ritual theories and Gender Studies to better understand the challenges of a media device that targets a female audience, this research reveals the coexistence of a plurality of representations of feminine images in fashion, not only entrenched in stereotypes of gender but also subversive in their circumvention of normative expectations concerning the expression of femininity. This interaction between the female body, clothing and purposed worlds demonstrates a strategic reappropriation of gender question by the fashion imaginary. Through some plays of masquerade, it is indeed a form of social anticipation concerning women gender representations that media discourses convey

Texto completo da fonteThis thesis examines the theory and the practice of women fighters in the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) in Turkey from 1978 to the present through a sociological field study. While the academic production on the PKK often focuses on the organization’s official positions and thus leaves untouched the questions of gender domination and women’s agency, this research attempts to bridge this gap. Based on the stories of women fighters and an ethnographic approach, this research traces the history of the PKK through the prism of gender. Structured around three parts, the thesis addresses women’s participation in armed struggles (and the difficulties they encountered in a patriarchal society like Turkey), their political participation in gender and ethnic liberation within a mixed movement marked by male hegemony, together with their intellectual struggles for constructing a local feminism called Jineolojî. Drawing on the materialist feminist and the critical anti-colonial perspectives, this study will engage – via the analysis of Jineolojî and its inherent contradictions – with the current debates in gender studies on the local and the global, nature and culture, sex and gender, myth and history. The thesis concludes that the transformations in the women’s political and armed participation changes their mode of knowledge production and vice versa. Militant activism has enabled Kurdish women actors to transgress gender norms, organize collectively around the women’s causes, thereby transforming and feminizing the movement as a whole. As for their theory, and despite its epistemological and methodological shortcomings, Jineolojî makes a major contribution to feminist studies, especially in countries at war and those confronted with ethnic conflicts

Texto completo da fonteThis PhD dissertation is about women’s relations to politics, viewed from the perspective of the popular background’s local participation. During the Chavez’s governments in Venezuela, the State’s will to favour local participation and fight against gender’s inequalities allows ordinary actors’dynamics and individual paths to meet and in the meantime, to make them visible. These actors occur to be mostly women. The Bolivarian participation politics is performed from the daily experience and interpersonnal relationship. The local State institutions - that are the Consejos Locales de Planificación Pública and the Consejos Comunales - intertwine public and private space. In this matrifocal country, this territorialized politics allows women from popular background to convert their authority into a political ressource that has been acknowledged and institutionnalized. This process changes the relationships to oneself, to the family and the community but to the institutionnalized power as well, going as far as to transform relationships between the ruling classes and the ones who are ruled by them. Based on a seven years research and a two years fieldwork, this PhD dissertation associates sociological studies’classic techniques and new tools revealing the importance of the affective turn brought by the participative experience in the interviewees’s life

Texto completo da fonteThrough applied research in cultural studies, a "thesis in action", I raise the ethical, aesthetic and political challenges faced by the editorial structure Tupi or not Tupi to publish in France. To do this, I study the corpus published by the structure, a bilingual short story collection and two novels translated from Brazilian: "t.", "Dame de Nuit" by Manoela Sawitzki and "L'odeur du siphon" by Lourenço Mutarelli. In an analysis of cultural transfer, as a starting language, I question the starting society and the unavoidable contemporary phenomena present in the texts published or being published by Tupi or not Tupi éditions, such as the normative society, state violence, religious obscurantism, necropolitics, with a view to understanding current Brazilian society. Guided by gender studies, this research questions the place occupied by women in the recent history of what I would call "the Tupi or not Tupi society", in other words, the recent history of resistance to the norms of a patriarchal, colonialist, neoliberal society, where freedom and democracy are still the draft of a draft
Elarem, Hajer. "A quest for selfhood : deconstructing and reconstructing female identity in Doris Lessing's early fiction". Thesis, Besançon, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015BESA1026/document.
Texto completo da fonteA prolific, anti-conformist, rebellious and provocative writer, Doris Lessing has been considered by critics as the forerunner of feminism, communism, anti-colonialism and anti-aparteid. By attributing to her the Nobel Price for Literature in 2007, the Swedish Academy rewarded an « epicist of the female experience, who, with skepticism, fire and visionary power subjected a divided civilization to scrutiny ». Reducing her work, however, to political issues means overlooking a crucial and omnipotent theme related to the quest for selfhood and the desire for self-knowledge animating the female subject, In order to gain this goal, it is first important to go through the experience of deconstruction. This is why this work will analyse Doris Lessing's deconstructive approach to the female identity. This deconstruction is not to be understood in the strict Derridian sense but in a broader persepective residing in the writer's universal and prophetic vision. In fact, Doris Lessing endeavors to deconstruct an essentialist conception which would lead to a universal apprehension of the female identity. She denies all logocentric thinking and questions fixed and unified identities, and by the same token, the universality of the quest. This reveals a nomadic thought, which in Deleuzian sense, entails that the female identity is fluid, changing, without frontiers, open to all possibilities and with a great potential to re-construct and re-define itself

Texto completo da fonteThe aim of this thesis is to study the profile of two archetypal ancient heroines, Antigone and Medea, under a gender perspective, based on a corpus of twelve performances including a choreographic score (or entirely choreographed), presented between 1993 and 2015 in France, Greece and/or the United Kingdom.Evaluating the gender features related (without being limited) to the profile of those emblematic heroines in each production revealed that gender does not only study stereotypes and discriminations against women and confirmed that they are not the only ones affected by gender inequalities since biological sex is only one of the parameters causing these inequalities. A chronological path uncovers the other parameters taken into account in gender research thus allowing to follow the traces of its evolution and to understand how creators (choreographers and stage directors) illustrate the changes that occur and how these changes are reflected in their work. The major axes of research, namely sex, social class and ethnicity are not mutually exclusive; on the contrary they intertwine, overlap and articulate becoming intrinsic to each other (inseparable) therefore suggesting intersectionality within gender. Associating the notion of intersectionality to gender enables the study of identities in a non-segmented way. By choosing dance as a support material, by drawing examples from ancient tragedy and by taking under consideration the complexity of Antigone and Medea’s personalities/identities whilst understanding their multidimensionality to further explore their dynamics.Consequently, the analysis of dance performances - in France, Greece and the United Kingdom - illustrates the intertwinement of gender relations with other power relations (and vice versa) and underlines the changes that occur in the choreography per se on one hand and in the staging of emblematic figures such as Antigone and Medea on the other. Emphasis is placed on promoting their singularity and respecting their composite personality combining identity fragments alluding by extension to a new "definition" of the individual

Texto completo da fonteThis research focuses on the reconstruction and analysis of the process of the emergence of the issue of women victims of the armed conflict in Colombia, as a result of feminist mobilization. The research shows the structural role of law and legal mobilization in its birth and consolidation. With an approach that articulates the perspectives of sociology of law, sociology of social movements, and the feminist critique of law, the analysis highlights the conditions for the emergence of legal and public denunciations of women affected by armed violence. Grounded on an empirical research based primarily on interviews, discourse analysis and observation of court proceedings, the analysis of the cause allows to investigate the place of the issue of women and victims in public policies, including the efforts for achieve the "end of the conflict", in addition to understanding the pivotal role of recourse to law and justice in these processes. Concepts such as "transitional justice", "the human rights of women" or "constitutional politics" are also reviewed and discussed through a "constitutive" law perspective. In this way, the contemporary history of the Colombian armed conflict, and of the social mobilization for peace and against war, and also the history of institutional efforts to manage the effects of violence, are also revisited. On one hand, the discussion of those topics is determined by the fact that they can be thought as an effect of the double gendered perspective that topics such as "women victims" and "feminist mobilization" introduce. On the other hand, they are also part of a more global discussion due to the dynamics generated by the public emergence of the issue of women victims, who are simultaneously an object of mobilization, a subject of denunciation, and a "subject of rights"
Aulombard, Noémie. "Défier la sexualisation du regard. Analyse des démarches contestataires des FEMEN et du post-porn". Thesis, Lyon, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019LYSEN027/document.
Texto completo da fonteThis thesis aims to study two different approaches which dissent from the dominant imaginary, through the analysis of the FEMEN movement’s direct actions and performances derived from the post-porn approach. Both dissenting approaches highlight and question, each in their own way, the sexualization of bodies, which is inherent to certain schema of the dominant imaginary: the FEMEN movement refuses it, while the post-porn approach offers other ways of sexualizing the body. An in-depth comparison of FEMEN's modes of action with those of the actors and actresses of the post-porn scene entails engagement with two different ways of re-working the notion of dominant sexual imaginaries, and also the re-signification of trans and/or non-heterosexual female bodies. Starting from the sexualization of bodies, I show how the way we look at bodies is locked in, structured by an imaginary shaped by power relationships: there are hegemonic ways to narrate the bodies of the dominant and the dominated. By disseminating themselves into the social world, corporal scripts – these fictions created through logics of domination – shape the way we look at bodies, corporal practices and social interactions. However, this locking in of the gaze contains in itself the conditions of its own unlocking. These modes of unlocking will be questioned through the prism of actions by FEMEN and post-porn activists. Does suggesting alternative body narrations unlock the gaze brought to bear on the body? What relation do these dissenting approaches have with hegemonic fictions?

Texto completo da fonteThis thesis gives a detailed study of the relationships between men and women in Quebecois most popular movies. Building on the feminist film theories (identification theories), gender studies and cultural studies, the thesis tries to make sense of two phenomena: the overrepresentation of men compared with women in the Quebecois most popular movies and the discrepancy in the representation of the status of women in films, traditional and confined to the private space, lagging “behind” the more emancipated and equitable status that they have in the social universe of Quebec. The thesis proposes to study the cinematographic staging of men and women. The argument is divided into four parts, which correspond to the four sites of the construction of masculinity in Quebecois most popular movies: the relationship between men and, respectively, the heroic figure, the father, the couple, and the friends (gang de chums). The work consists of a stylistic analysis of the main emblematic films of masculinity, focusing on the narrative device and the narrative perspective and voice. Mots-clés: Quebecois popular movies, masculinity, masculinocentrism, feminism, narrative perspective, Gender Theory, Cultural Studies and Identification Theory.
Boivineau, Pauline. "Danse contemporaine, genre et féminisme en France (1968-2015)". Thesis, Angers, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015ANGE0034/document.
Texto completo da fonteThis thesis analyses a complex question linkingcontemporary dance, gender and feminism in Francefrom 1968 to 2015. Dance shares the concerns offeminist activists regarding issues of identity, sexuality, emancipation, the deconstruction of gender andbinarisms, of universalist research and femaleness. Thisstudy examines how feminism informed artists who,whatever the era, had difficulty admitting that they werefeminists or seeing their art as an expression of theircommitment. Considering the subversive potential ofdance implies an analysis of its relationship with gender,in particular the female gender, as well as the real andsymbolic place of women. Preconceived ideas andstereotypes thus confront reality. The year 1968 markeda turning point for society and for dance, including froma political point of view. Dance came into its own at thesame time that second-wave feminism came to the fore.The reconfiguration of the relationships between danceand feminism that occurred over this 50-year periodallows one to assess reciprocal influences and topostulate the existence of a feminist dance. Comparingfemale choreographers' modes of expression with thoseof men, facilitates the understanding of genderedconstructions and their potential for challengingheteronormativity and androcentrism. How do the majorpolitical changes (establishment of the NCCs,management changes, parity, etc.), feminists(appearance of a third wave, etc.), aesthetics andmediatisation nurture dance as a means of expressionof gender and feminism? The generalisation of nudityand the queerisation of dance suggest the passage fromthe transgression of gender to its subversion. Thisthesis aims to understand how third-wave feminism,more open to cultural and intersectional dimensions,enabled dance to be feminist

Texto completo da fonteWomen artists are underrepresented at the highest levels of artistic, symbolic and economic reputation, although they make up the majority of art school students as well as artists. Drawing on sociology of work, gender, art and education, this PhD dissertation explains this paradox. It analyses the making of gender inequalities within a very prestigious French art school and how these affect the entrance into an artistic career, survival in the profession and access to reputation of its graduates in contemporary art. The joint analysis of quantitative data from an artist ranking (ArtFacts), biographical interviews and ethnographic observations sheds light on the gendered construction of artistic careers. Whether it is during the recruitment by the art school, the selection in a studio, student jobs, the invitation to exhibit one’s work or being represented by a gallery, women’s gradual disappearance plays out in co-optation processes. At different stages in the career, the stigma of motherhood restricts their employability and their heterosexualization limits opportunities for self-promotion. Access to the conventions of the contemporary art world and integration into professional networks, particularly in the art market, are sexually differentiated. Nevertheless, different social, economic, educational or institutional resources allow some women to bypass the constraints weighing on women’s artistic careers, and to gain reputation

Texto completo da fonteThis research in the field of sociology of gender aims at understanding the rarity of female referees in the Malagasy Federation of Volleyball (MFVB). The issue concerns the link between the professional practice of arbitration and the norms of sexual identities in the Malagasy society. Due to the lack of existing work on gender and sport in Madagascar, our approach proceeds from an exploratory investigation. The institutional and statistical approach reveals the existence of a double glass ceiling, blocking women's arbitration training, and then, their career promotion. Interviews were conducted, in a qualitative approach, with female referees (8), leaders or managers (17 with 14 men), and a questionnaire was filled in by female volleyball players from Antananarivo (222). All answers point towards the facts but the interpretations vary: the female referees denounce discriminatory processes and the male domination they are facing, leaders legitimize their management practice, relying on the patriarchal norms and values of the Malagasy society, while other male managers do not abide by these positions and other federations promote female arbitration on an international scale. The female volleyball players' responses prove that they are available for the sport and generally express an egalitarian conception of arbitration, a quarter of the women even said they would like to become referee. Although the end of discrimination in the arbitral management of the MFVB seems to depend on internal power relations, the survey shows the emergence of gender mobility in the Malagasy sport community, women referees have actually conquered new public and democratic prerogatives

Texto completo da fonteHow did utopians who purported to look sympathetically at the « Woman’s Question » construct gender in their utopias ? Did the women utopians do it differently from the male writers ? What has changed and what has remained the same in the « chain of utopias » throughout the long period under consideration ? Equality would seem to have been the basis of early-XIXth century utopias written by Robert Owen and Owenites such as William Thompson and Anna Wheeler. By contrast, mid-XIXth century Fourierites – Fourier and his American disciples Albert Brisbane, Marie Howland and Jane Appleton – seem to have been preeminently taken with the idea of liberty. American Fourierism both carried on Owen’s tradition of « material feminism » and fed « Free Love feminism ». In the late XIXth century, Edward Bellamy and William Morris – though they reacted against each other on a range of other issues – both based their utopias on the assuption that women were morally superior beings and as such should be confined to their own separate sphere where they could exercise their benevolent influence. At the turn of the century, Charlotte Perkins Gilman provided a synthesis of previous lines of thought and opened the way for some of the issues that defined the XXth century

Texto completo da fonteAt the crossroads of literature, sociology and psychology, this interdisciplinary work is intended to analyzing (analyze) the condition of contemporary women through a corpus of Persian and French works written respectively by Zoya Pirzad and Katherine Pancol and published between the years 1990 and 2010.These works, by their wide readership, are in popular literature. An analytical approach on the evolution of the novelistic genre, can define our corpus in relation to the new forms of sentimental literature, especially the Chick lit.The emergence of women novelists illustrating particularly the feminine universe requires studies on women’s writing.In this regard, Virginia Woolf insists on the importance of personal experiences in the creation of literary works, Luce Irigary identifies a language full of excess, folly and contradiction among women authors and Elaine Showalter proposes the construction of a framework (of a female executive) to analyze the literature of women.Subsequently, the question of feminism and its various currents in the West and the East explicitly developed. To approve the famous phrase of Simone de Beauvoir "One is not born a women, one becomes one", this work seeks to highlight the direct and indirect influence of the family, the school and the environment on training of the identity of the individual.Finally, by a psychological approach, this research promises a silent renaissance by examining the mental state of the female characters. The mother-daughter or father-daughter relationship and sexuality are major axes of this last part

Texto completo da fonteSpain has known great social transformations that can be seen reflected in the different investigations performed, especially in the area of gender studies, omnipresent subject nowadays. Theatre as a branch of scenic art develops a key role in the development of an intellectual evolution of a country as well as in the change of mentality, this last one being seen in that it allows us to stand out the evolution of the role of women throughout the years. Federico García Lorca and Laila Ripoll analyze the role of women under the yoke of social conventions articulated through the weight of tradition and the confinement in the domestic space as mother and wife. Gender studies judge this image of women implanted in the collective imaginary demonstrating that that it is indeed a social construct and not an innate condition given that the relation between sexual identity, sexual orientation and the representations of each are different in each individual. The characters studied in our investigation show hints of development, manifesting the transformations that society goes through. Despite the weight of patriarchal society, they rebel taking characteristics traditionally known as manly and affirming their sexuality, even at the risk of social rejection. The relationship with sex, and by extension the body, still is a debate theme as they feel that their body is not theirs but of society, which demands of it perfection. Their body is possessed through erotized domination, patriarchal violence, mutilation or even death. This way, the body of the woman, represented in scenery, is sexualized and submitted to patriarchal order, which carries consequences on these women whose body is stigmatized
España ha conocido grandes transformaciones sociales que se ven reflejadas en las diferentes investigaciones que se realizan, especialmente en el campo de los estudios de género, temática a día de hoy omnipresente. El teatro como rama del arte escénico desempeña un papel clave tanto en la evolución intelectual de un país como en el cambio de mentalidades, ejemplo de esto último es que permite poner de relieve la evolución del rol de la mujer a lo largo de los años. Federico García Lorca y Laila Ripoll analizan el papel de la mujer bajo el yugo de las convenciones sociales articuladas a través del peso de la tradición y el confinamiento en el espacio doméstico como madre y esposa. Los estudios de género ponen en tela de juicio esta imagen de la mujer implantada en el imaginario colectivo pues demuestran que se trata de una construcción social y no de una condición innata ya que la relación entre la identidad sexual, la orientación sexual y las representaciones de las mismas son distintas en cada individuo. Los personajes estudiados en nuestra investigación presentan indicios de evolución, poniendo de manifiesto las transformaciones a las que la sociedad se enfrenta. A pesar del peso de la sociedad patriarcal, se rebelan tomando características tradicionalmente consideradas como masculinas y afirmando su sexualidad, incluso con el riesgo de que esta actitud traiga consigo el rechazo social. La relación con el sexo, y por extensión con su cuerpo, sigue siendo tema de debate pues sienten que su cuerpo no les pertenece sino que pertenece a la sociedad que le exige la perfección. Su cuerpo es poseído a través de la dominación erotizada, la violencia machista, la mutilación o incluso la muerte. De este modo, el cuerpo de la mujer, representado en el escenario, se sexualiza y está sometido al orden patriarcal, lo que acarrea consecuencias sobre estas mujeres cuyo cuerpo se estigmatiza
