Abstract:
This thesis examines the portrayal of the femme fatale in Brazilian cinema. It shows that although such a character is well known in cinema, her presence in Brazilian cinema has so far been neither acknowledged nor theorised. The thesis argues that this is a result of the ways the femme fatale has been constructed and understood in popular culture and cinema: as a beautiful heterosexual Caucasian woman. Therefore, the main objective herein is not only to identify the femme fatale in Brazilian film production but also to show the different guises in which she appears in order to decolonise the

Abstract:
There is no study of the scope of the British film femme fatale: her nature and heritage have not been documented. That's what this thesis does. How does British society and history modify this figure? Does she reflect the social fortunes of British women, or is she such a fantasy that there is no correlation? I reject the psychoanalytic model that customarily interprets this subject and this field, so I borrow some Jungian magical thinking and follow an interdisciplinary trail of associations to test her merit as an archetype. And since archetypes are supposed to be unchanging, I am on a coll

Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The stereotypical figure of the femme fatale as irresistible seductress, who inevitably brings about death, is well known. This figure is nevertheless strangely absent from Afrikaans literature. This is what makes the appearance of the character of Nicolette in André Brink’s novel, The Ambassador (1963), so remarkable. Not only is she a complex femme fatale, she also adds a new dimension to the cliché. The striking similarities between Nicolette and Kathe, the female protagonist in Henri-Pierre Roché’s novel Jules et Jim (195

This thesis is the first comparative reading of the femme fatale in contemporary American cinema, and makes a significant contribution to a field that has previously limited its focus to film noir of the 1940s and the neo noirs of the 1980s and 1990s. To date, critical examinations of the femme fatale figure in contemporary cinema have centred on issues of post-second wave backlash, and on a very narrow range of films, most notably Fatal Attraction (1987), Basic Instinct (1992), Disclosure (1994), and The Last Seduction (1994), (Kate Stables, 1998; Yvonne Tasker, 1998; Helen Hanson, 2007).

Mumbai is currently one of the most prolific and lucrative film centers in the world. Its production of the "Bollywood" popular film has attracted billions in audience members outside the nation of India, many of whom do not belong to Indian culture in the Diaspora. The significance of this influence draws from the cross-cultural borrowings increasingly present in Bollywood cinema. The advent of Western investment in the production center has coincided with the diversification of the standard Bollywood film from "masala" musical to more genre specific action, horror and even romantic comedy

Abstract:
Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis, arguably the most famous Brazilian author, has been studied perhaps more than any other figure in Brazilian literature. Because Machado's novels are so exceptional, many of his good short stories have been neglected by scholars, particularly those categorized by some as “fantastic.” This study attempts to fill that gap by analyzing the most prominent female characters in Machado's fantastic fiction. After providing a brief overview of the term fantastic and explaining how the stories used qualify as fantastic, this study identifies several tropes into which the

This thesis examines the novels Die Entdeckung der Currywurst, written by the German author Uwe Timm in 1993 and Der Vorleser, written by the German author Bernhard Schlink in 1995.

Incorporating the ideas of the feminist movement, the thesis focuses on the notion that the literary role of women does not coincide with realistic representations of women rather it derives from traditionally stereotypical images of a femme fatale or a femme fragile. The goal is to analyse the depiction of women as literary protagonists in both novels. Do they truly c

Abstract:
This thesis challenges the traditional view of the 'femme fatale' as merely a dangerous and ravenous sexual predator who leads men into ruination. Critical, especially feminist, scholarship mostly regards the femme fatale as a sexist construction of a male fantasy and treats her as an expression of misogyny that ultimately serves to reaffirm male authority. But this thesis proposes alternative ways of viewing the femme fatale by showing how she can also serve as a figure for imagining female agency.

By ‘métisse’, I refer specifically to a woman of ‘black’ and ‘white’ ‘racial’ mixture whose identity, in the context of the texts that figure her, both legitimates and deconstructs distinct and discrete ‘racial’ identity. As such, she is a useful figure through which to investigate and unpack conceptions of ‘race’. I will suggest that her innate performative abilit

The time of modernity, defined here as 1850-1940, contributed to massive changes in the representation of the feminine in literature. Societal paradigm shifts due to industrialism, advances in science, psychology, and a newfound push for gender equality brought transformation to the Western World. As a result of this, male frustrations revived the ancient trope of the femme fatale, but the modern woman—already hungry for agency, tired of maligned representation in heinous portrayals of skeletons, sirens, and beasts—saw a symbol begging for redemption rather than the intended insult.

The chapter goes on to survey the narrative, cinematic and critical work on women as vampires. As many of the texts were developed as part of the fantasy role-playing game Vampire: The Masquerade, this chapter also surveys how fantasy role-playing develops unpublished texts that can make fruitful grou

Jag kommer bl.a. fram till att Sin Citys använder sig av klassiska film noirstilgrepp men drar dem till det extrema, kanske för att passa in på den serievärld som filmen är länkad till.

Abstract:
The Pretty and The Deadly is a visual essay exploring the role of the Femme Fatale in the classic Film Noir film and how this depiction relates to the treatment of female ambition today. It creates a narrative through a mashup of different scenes with Femme Fatales and is juxtaposed by a mashup of original audio from the film and modern audio in order to critique the treatment of women and their ambition.

<p>The text discusses the folk-tale princess as a good role model for both children and adults, from a feminist debate concerning this issue. Also an iconographic study, it compares women in folk-tale illustrations with women represented in fin-de-Siècle art concentrating on the Great mother goddess and the femme fatale, finding similarities between folk-tale illustrations and other art. Besides that, the text look at the interest for Swedish folk-tales in the 1890´s, the connection between women as illustrators of children’s books and ideas about nature and womanhood that might have had influ

Abstract:
The thesis takes its beginnings from the work of Mario Praz, The Romantic Agony and from Michel Foucault's The History of Sexuality, Vol. 1. Praz has argued that the construction of the 'femme fatale' as a recognizable type is a phenomenon of the late nineteenth century. Foucault proposes that the nineteenth century is characterised not by a repression of sexual discourses but by a multiplication of centres from which such discourses are produced. The thesis places the 'femme fatale' in the socio-historical context of the 90s and searches both for the plurality of discourses mobilised to defin

En esta tesina, investigo el arquetipo de la mujer araña . Empiezo en el primer capítulo con el prototípo--Aracne, joven tejedora de la mitología grecorromana, de cuyo nombre viene la raíz de todo lo “arácnido.” Según la fábula, Aracne, famosa tapicera, fue transformada en una araña por ofender a Minerva. Investigo el mito—como primero apareció, recordado por Ovidio en las Metamorfosis (8 a.D)--y su propia metamorfosis a lo largo de dos milenios. Me enfoco en la tradition exegética de L’ovide moralisé, nacida en Francia en el siglo XIV, como ejemplo del discurso moralista que ha envuelto a Ara

Abstract:
La thèse compare quelques romans suédois et français écrits entre 1884 et 1892 et comment ceux-ci sont imprégnés par les thèmes de la Décadence, et cela à partir de l’implication esthétique des portraits de femmes. Huit textes sont étudiés afin de comparer la littérature suédoise fin-de-siècle – en partie interprétée comme de la littérature de « percée moderne » – à la littérature française et la Décadence. L’étude est divisée en trois parties concernant : 1) la représentation de la femme indépendante ; 2) les nouveaux rôles des sexes ; 3) les rapports à l’esthétique et l’ontologie décadentes.

Snow, Megan Ashley. "The Unexpected Symbol of the New Woman: Ella Ferris Pell's Salome." BYU ScholarsArchive, 2017. https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/etd/6371.

Abstract:
This thesis argues that Ella Ferris Pell's 1890 painting, Salome, provides a unique interpretation of the ideals of the New Woman, specifically in terms of reclaiming female power through Salome's confidence in her sexuality. By examining the cultural context in which Pell exhibited her painting, as well as her background as an artist, I hope bring to the light the significant ways in which Pell's Salome participates in the construction of the New Woman in late nineteenth-century culture. Since Pell was an American woman who trained and exhibited in both the United States and France, this pape
