Abstract:

The study that has been undertaken sets out to explore students’ representation of gender in their narratives. It therefore aims at describing in what way the students represent gender. The method used was a qualitative text analysis from a feminist perspective. The research was carried out in the south of Sweden, with twelve students in year nine. These students’ narratives represented gender in various ways. The stories included representations of gender with both traditional and unconventional notions. Some of the stories showed a hierarchical relationship between men and women portrayed in

Despite the publicly reported increasing levels of people infected and living with HIV/AIDS and the HIV awareness campaigns, there are still high percentages of newly infected people.

Abstract:

This thesis examines the ways in which rural, national, and urban spaces become gendered through the practices and representations of beer drinking in New Zealand. Critical social theory combined with feminist poststructuralist debates on identities provides the theoretical framework for this research. Two focus groups with Pākehā beer drinkers aged between 18 - 30 years old were conducted; one consisting of six males and the other consisting of six females. Critical textual analysis was also undertaken on five beer advertisements representing the most popular beer brands in New Zealand; Tui,

Abstract:

This research is premised on the investigation of two under-researched groups within the Church of England, whose subjectivities have altered since the Church of England made the momentous decision to allow the ordination of women in 1992. Whilst women priests more generally have been subject to research investigation and comment, priests as mothers and the non-ordained spouses of women priests are two groups of people whose experiences and subjectivities have not been explored in explicit detail. Indeed, at the heart of this research is the theme of gender identity and how femininities and ma

Thesis advisor: Mary J. Hughes<br>Based on the current sociological views of gender, this paper will examine the various constructs of femininities and masculinities as observed in stream of consciousness fiction. Using Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse and William Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury, one can view the interactions of pressures which establish characters' resistance or acceptance of gender roles. Because of their narrative styles, both Woolf and Faulkner provide perspectives which would normally be concealed. The characters will be organized and analyzed based upon their generat

Ao invés de utilizar o termo futebol feminino, corrente tanto no espaço esportivo quanto acadêmico, proponho o conceito de futebol de mulheres, objetivando, com isso, a desindexação do pensamento normativo de gênero, refém do binômio “masculino/feminino”.

Analytically, I focus on the points at which discourses of gender converge with narratives of violence. In other words, the cu

The subject matter for this research is the representation of femininities and masculinities in Roman art with particular reference to that of Roman Britain. The study focuses on the visual presentation of gender for specific deities, personifications and figural images in funerary art; this includes concepts of sexuality that in some cases become entwined with the study of gender. I have endeavoured to demonstrate how socially constructed values add to the understandings of gender and Roman art.

Desde a segunda metade do século XX, as desigualdades de gênero na educação brasileira têm se revertido a favor das meninas, que hoje apresentam os melhores indicadores educacionais ao longo de sua trajetória escolar. O conjunto de investigações científicas dentro dessa temática, lançando mão do conceito de gênero, tem realçado inúmeras contribuições para se pensar o papel da escola na construção de masculinidades e feminilidades entre seus alunos e alunas. Entretanto, algumas lacunas têm persistido e apontado para novos desafios e perspectivas dentro do campo de estudos em gênero e educação.

I do this by interviewing seven female sports arena workers (the five current and two former), and by observing their workplaces.
