Abstract:
One of the main influences on Judith Butler‘s thinking has been the work of Michel Foucault. Although this relationship is often commented on, it is rarely discussed in any detail. My thesis makes a contribution in this area. It presents an analysis of Foucault‘s work with the aim of countering Butler‘s representation of his thinking. In the first part of the thesis, I show how Butler initially interprets Foucault‘s project through Nietzschean genealogy, psychoanalysis and Derridean discourse, and how she later develops this interpretation in line with the progress of her own project.

Abstract:
The project grounds the use of mimesis in my video art practice. In the written element I query equivalence between mimesis and performativity in Judith Butler's conception; I consider the tragic and hyperbolic faculties of these, as ways of promoting expansion of context in received convention. My video clips have performance in them and mime destructive regimes in mainstream conventions of visual culture, of sexual identity and of political position, to challange these. They mobilize convention and deviation from it, through ineptitude of performance or my ambiguous relation to the conventio

Terayama fu un artista eclettico, poliedrico nonché decisamente sovversivo e irriverente nei confronti degli standard artistici (e sociali) in vigore nel Giappone anni sessanta e settanta.

Abstract:
The thesis explores the construction of gender in the Hollywood Teen Movie, often perceived as 'the odious norm' of Hollywood cinema with little to warrant serious analysis.[1] Although Timothy Shary's work has done much to promote the genre as an area of academic enquiry, there have been few sustained textual analyses of the Teen Movie. Through close textual analysis of seven representative case studies, this thesis stages an encounter between Butler's work on gender and the Teen Movie. Butler’s theorisation of performativity denaturalises and deconstructs the assumption of heteronormativity,

The post-secular event within which we live is occasioned as the limit of the secular project. The secular project meets its limit in attempting to separate a religious private sphere from a public sphere while at the same time repeating as a demand a religious subjectivation of the public sphere: demanding conformity to a simple subjectivity, producing a world of simple subjects through a theologically determined metaphysics of conversion. In this latter demand secularism enforces a simplicity of its subjects and its world. Yet this simplicity cannot be taken up into or as life. To genuinely

Abstract:
Hegel’s master-slave dialectic has often been used as a model or starting point for later theories about emancipation and subversive changes in society. But one often overlooks the fact that the chapter in The Phenomenology of Spirit ends in disaster, as Judith Butler remarks. Instead of realising freedom, the consciousness gets entangled in self debasing activities in its attempts to master the unrelenting principles of the abstract freedom. We get “the unhappy consciousness”. This development is further examined in this essay in dialog with Butler and Slavoj Žižek, amongst others. Focus is p

The main theoretical thrust of my project involves the political uses of parodically performing shame and shaming rituals in resisting normative regulation. I argue that parodic performances of this negative affect—traditionally deployed to erase, obscure, and regulate queers—can expose how shame regulates the gender/sexuality performances of straight people as well as queers. I view this project primarily as a tactical shift from the parodic performances outlined by Judith Butler in texts like Gender Trouble, and I feel that the shift is important as a counter measure to increasing homo

Today, feminist theory, instead of accompanying a movement or being generated by a movement, is out there on its own. There is no large-scale social movement to complement it and to act on it. The energy and excitement of collective action is what many feminists miss and what is implied through critiques of contemporary feminist theory. The lament is for unity, for what was conceived of as “sisterhood” and what emerges as a myth. Many feminists share a nostalgia for a time that was filled with the potential for and intensity of social revolution. When we look at the theory of early secon

<p>Den allvarsamma leken (1912) by Hjalmar Söderberg has been regarded as one of the greatest love novels of Swedish literature. The story about Arvid Stjärnblom and Lydia Stille and their extramarital love is marked by timeless universality.</p><p>In this essay, I will examine this notion of love as a prediscursive value, by means pro¬vided by foremost poststructuralist theory. With Derrida’s conception of deconstruction, the analysis will reveal the constructedness of the true love in Söderbergs novel. Examinating typi¬cal logocentric binarisms the essay will show that the notion of true lov

Abstract:
Användandet av medier har i takt med teknologins framväxt eskalerat, och somliga medieteoretiker hävdar att bl.a. medier bidrar till att både skapa och upprätthålla diverse normer – däribland könsnormer. Media speglar de normer och stereotyper som existerar i samhället genom att lära oss skilja på ”rätt och fel” och bidrar till att måla upp vad som är typiskt manligt och kvinnligt. Ett område där könsnormer ter sig extra tydligt är alkoholfrågan vilken behandlar hur män respektive kvinnor bör agera kring alkohol i fråga om hur, vad samt i vilken kontext alkohol bör konsumeras.

Abstract:
Då Disney är en storproducent inom barnkultur kan det vara av intresse att undersöka hur de har framställt karaktärer i sina filmer. Studien fokuserar specifikt på hur genus och kön framställs i två nutida Disneyfilmer då filmerna ger en kontemporär bild på Disneys syn på genus och kön. Studiens fokus är på framställningen av huvud- och bikaraktär i filmerna Trassel och Röjar-Ralf. Studien är kvalitativ och textanalys används som metod för analysen av filmerna. Begreppet den heterosexuella matrisen från Judith Butlers performativa genusteori används i analysen av karaktärerna. Ytterligare anvä

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to explore the female experience as it is spoken of in the novel Sindhia written by Rut Hillarp (1954) and how the main character in the book violates the experience from a queer perspective. My aim is to through a close reading highlight a number of discourses that underpin the book's imminent theme of love and submission. According to Norman Faircloughs critical-discourse analysis, the text one reads produces a certain amount of discourses that one consumes. This way there is a dialectical interaction that can be set into a practical analysis together with a suit

Die Texte werden ausgehend von der Annahme untersucht, dass Macht ein asymmetrisches Verhältnis ist, das durch Konsens entsteht (Laclau und Mouffe), und auch Geschlechterverhältnisse als Machtverhältnisse verständlich werden, da Geschlecht keine natürliche Gegebenheit, sondern ein gesellschaftliches Konstrukt ist (Butler). Dementsprechend werden die Texte in einem Spannungsfeld von Anpassung un

Abstract:
The aim of this essay is to study constructions of femininity and sexuality in Sara Stridsberg’s novel Darling River (2010). The analysis is based on queer theory and the term ’skev’ – a variation of ’queer’ that allows one to focus on additional forms of normativity apart from sexual desire – and examines how the characters of the novel are challenging the heteronormative framework by performing gender and sexuality in non-normative, subversive ways. In short, I discuss how the relationship between femininity, body and destiny is being portrayed, how the characters question heteronormativity

This essay examines Finnish artist Iiu Susiraja’s self-portraits in relation to Western traditions and tropes of the genre from the 20th century until today. I use an iconological/iconographic model to describe and to further interpret the images. The purpose is to find out which norms and conventions, within the art sphere and society as a whole, that Susiraja’s images reproduce or revolt against. Thoughts and concepts from the theory of performativity show that the artist, who also appears in the photos, both imitates and breaks free from different stereotypes concerning gender. Through a ne

Abstract:
Syftet med studien är att undersöka vilka performativa diskurser kring barns kön som framträder i de kollegiala samtalen i förskolan. Metoden som användes var fokusgruppssamtal där deltagarna fick tre dilemman att diskutera kring kopplat till förskolans jämställdhetsarbete. Samtalen spelades in för att sedan kunna transkriberas och analyseras.Resultatet visar på att man kan lyfta ur vissa performativa yttranden som förekommer i samtalen mellan pedagogerna. Yttranden som kan ligga till grund för att pedagoger många gånger bemöter pojkar och flickor olika. Det framkommer att pojkar och flickor t
