Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis examines the patterns of the contemporary female Bildungsroman in terms of the female and male patterns of the protagonist using two contemporary Bildungsromans; Judith Schalansky’s Der Hals der Giraffe and Linda Solanki’s Dem See entlang Richtung verlorene Jugend. The contemporary protagonists are put into comparison to the traditional ones of the 18th and 19th century, when the Bildungsroman emerged as a genre. The traditional protagonists were bound to different experiences depending on their gender, and this thesis examines how the contemporary protagonists have evolved, and if the female protagonists are showing tendencies towards traditional female or male patterns.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Inspired heavily by the Virginia Woolf's novel, The Waves, Dirty Girls tells the story of four girls coming of age in coastal Texas. Told through interior monologues, Dirty Girls explores themes of adolescent girlhood from the various perspectives of those who live it. Carmel has always been on the outside looking in, envious of the prettier, thinner, blonde girls who seem to own everything and everyone. Christina protects her, attempting to straddle the line between sexual awakening and childhood innocence. Lauren grapples with her lesbian sexuality in a time and place where such an identity is forbidden. And Taylor suffers the consequences of her grown-too-fast flashy ways. All four girls overlap and change, though through their interiority the reader comes to realize no girl is spared the struggle of the patriarchy.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This dissertation demonstrates Anthony Powell's skillful adaptation of the traditional Bildunqsroman of youth and his innovative employment of an emerging genre--the Bildunqsroman of middle age--in order to unfold the story of Nicholas Jenkins, his narrator/protagonist, and especially to develop Jenkins as a character who moves through distinct cycles of change that are analyzed in detail. In addition, looking at Powell's work within the traditional and midlife Bildunqsroman and contrasting the characteristics of the second developmental stage with the first allows not only for analysis of the newer genre as practiced by Powell but also for provisional definition of the Bildunqsroman of middle life as written by some other contemporary novelists.Jenkins's youthful cycle of development occurs within the first trilogy or spring "season" of Powell's series; the midlife narrative, in the third trilogy or autumn "season." Although Powell's basic metaphor of the dance through time insists on constant change, these transitional seasons of quickened movement make possible the relatively peaceful productivity of summer, the ripeness of winter. In the first trilogy, Jenkins educates himself from the negative examples of failed mentors. Out of his interest in others, his greatest strength, Jenkins develops compassionate and imaginative powers of observation and discovers his identity and vocation as a writer. In the third trilogy, which begins in loss of vocation, Jenkins is forced onto a more challengingroad of trials than he travelled in youth and into recognition that even one's own identity cannot remain the same. In the process of constructing a new self, Jenkins must discover newways of thinking about what constitutes useful human activity.Among the topics considered also in discussion of the newer genre are contrasting definitions of successful action in youth and in middle age, the more open endings of the midlife narratives, as well as the possibility of differing male and female models for midlife Bildunqsromane. Study ofthe complexity of Jenkins's development, therefore, reveals new complexity in the development of the English novel itself.Department of English

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Thesis (MA (English))--University of Stellenbosch, 2009.ENGLISH ABTRACT: In recent years, original and exciting developments have been taking place in Nigerian literature. This new body of literature, collectively referred to as the ―third generation‖, has lately received international acclaim. In this emergent literature, the negotiation of a new, contemporary identity has become a central focus. At the same time, recent Nigerian literary texts are articulating responses to various developments in the Nigerian nation: Nigeria‘s current political and socio-economic situation, diverse forms of cultural hybridisation, as well as an increasing trans-national consciousness, to mention only a few. Three 21st-century novels – Chimamanda Nogzi Adichie‘s Purple Hibiscus (2004), Sefi Atta‘s Everything Good Will Come (2004) and Chris Abani‘s GraceLand (2005) – reveal how new avenues of identity-negotiation and formation are being explored in various contemporary Nigerian situations. This study tracks the ways in which the Bildungsroman, the novel of self-development, serves as a vehicle through which this new identity is articulated. Concurrently, this study also grapples with the ways in which the articulation and negotiation of this new identity reshapes the conventions of the classical Bildungsroman genre, thereby establishing a unique and contemporary Nigerian Bildungsroman for the 21st century. The identity that is being negotiated by the third generation is multi-layered and inclusive, as opposed to the exclusive and unitary identities which are observable in Nigerian novels of the previous two generations. Such inclusivity, as well as the hybrid environments in which this identity is being negotiated, results in a form of ―identity layering‖. Thus, the individual comes into being at the point of intersection, overlap and collision of various modes of self-making. Such ―layering‖ allows the individual, albeit not without challenge, to perform a self-styled identity, which does not necessarily conform to the dictates of society. At the same time, the identity is negotiated by means of an engagement, in the form of intertextual dialoguing, with Nigeria‘s preceding literary generations. The most prominent arenas in which this new identity is negotiated include silenced domestic spaces, religo-cultural traditions, constructs of gender and nation, as well as in multicultural and hybrid communities. The investigation conducted in this thesis will, consequently, also focus on such areas of Nigerian life, as they are portrayed in the focal texts. Various theories of literary analysis (some of which specifically focus on Nigeria), Bildungsroman theory, theories of allegory, (imaginative) nation formation, feminism, gender and performativity, as well as theories of cultural identity and cultural exchanges, will form the critical and theoretical framework within which this investigation will be executed. Chapter One explores how Purple Hibiscus‘s protagonist, Kambili Achike, negotiates her gender identity and voice in order to constitute herself as an independent, self-authoring individual. Chapter Two, which focuses on Everything Good Will Come, investigates the dialectic relationship between Enitan Taiwo‘s national and personal identity, which inevitably leads to her quest to reconceive her gender identity, since national identity, as she finds out, is always an engendered construct. In its analysis of GraceLand, Chapter Three turns to the difficulties that Elvis Oke faces when he attempts to negotiate an alternative masculine identity within a rigid patriarchal system and between the cracks of a fraudulent African modernity.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In die afgelope paar jaar was daar opwindende, oorspronklike ontwikkelinge in Nigeriese literatuur. Hierdie nuwe literatuurkorpus, wat gesamentlik bekend staan as die ―derde generasie, het onlangs internasionale erkenning ontvang. In hierdie opkomende literatuur, kry die soeke na 'n nuwe, kontemporêre identiteit ‘n sentrale fokus. Terselfdertyd reageer onlangse Nigeriese literêre werke met verskeie ontwikkelinge in die Negeriese nasie: Nigerië se huidige politieke en sosio-ekonomiese situasie, diverse vorme van kultuurverbastering asook 'n toenemende trans-nasionale bewustheid, om maar ‘n paar te noem. Drie 21ste eeuse romans – Chimamanda Nogzi Adichie se Purple Hibiscus (2004), Sefi Atta se Everything Good Will Come (2004) en Chris Abani se GraceLand (2005) – onthul hoe nuwe kanale van identiteidsonderhandeling en –vorming in verskeie kontemporêre Nigeriese situasies ondersoek word. Hierdie studie ondersoek die maniere waarop die Bildungsroman, die roman van selfontwikkeling, as ‗n medium dien waardeur hierdie nuwe identiteit geartikuleer word. Terselfdertyd sal hierdie studie ook worstel met die maniere waarin die artikulasie en soeke na hierdie nuwe identiteit die konvensies van die klassieke Bildungsroman genre hervorm, en daardeur 'n unieke en kontemporêre Nigeriese Bildungsroman vir die 21ste eeu vestig. Die identiteit wat ontwikkel deur die derde generasie is veelvlakkig en inklusief en staan teenoor die eksklusiewe, eenvormige identiteite wat in Nigeriese romans van die vorige twee generasies opgemerk word. Hierdie inklusiwiteit, sowel as die hibriede omgewings waarin hierdie identeite ontwikkel word, lei tot die vorming van identiteitslae. Die individu kom dus tot stand by die kruising, oorvleueling en botsing van verskillende metodes van selfvorming. Hierdie vorming van lae laat die individu toe, alhoewel nie sonder uitdagings nie, om 'n selfgevormde identiteit te hê wat nie noodwndig aan die eise van die gemeenskap voldoen nie. Terselfdertyd word hierdie identiteit onderhandel deur ‗n skakeling met Nigerië se voorafgaande literêre generasies in die vorm van intertekstuele dialoog. Die mees prominente omgewings waar hierdie nuwe identiteit onderhandel word, sluit stilgemaakte huishoudelike spasies, religieus-kulturele tradisies, konstrukte van gender en nasie, sowel as multi-kulturele en hibriede gemeenskappe in. Die ondersoek wat in hierdie tesis uitgevoer sal word, sal daarom ook fokus op hierdie areas van Nigeriese lewe, soos deur die fokale tekste voorgestel. Verskeie teorieë van literêre analise (sommige wat spesifiek op Nigerië fokus), Bildungsromanteorie, teorieë van allegorie, (denkbeeldige) nasievorming, feminisme, gender en performatiwiteit, sowel as teorieë van kultuuridentiteit en -uitruiling, vorm die kritiese en teoretiese raamwerk waarbinne hierdie ondersoek uitgevoer sal word. Hoofstuk een ondersoek hoe Purple Hibiscus se protagonist, Kambili Achike, haar genderidentiteit onderhandel en uitdrukking gee om haarself as onafhanklike, self-skeppende individu te vorm. Hoofstuk twee, wat fokus op Everything Good Will Come, ondersoek die dialektiese verhouding tussen Enitan Taiwo se nasionale en persoonlike identiteit, wat onvermydelik lei tot die herbedenking van haar genderidentiteit, aangesien nasionale identiteit, soos sy uitvind, altyd 'n gekweekte konstruk is. In sy analise van GraceLand, draai Hoofstuk drie om die moeilikhede wat Elvis Oke in die gesig staar wanneer hy probeer om ‘n alternatiewe manlike identiteit te onderhandel in 'n rigiede patriargale sisteem tussen krake van 'n bedrieglike Afrika-moderniteit.

The object of the present research is the features of the Bildungsroman genre “Great Expectations” by Charles Dickens, “Of Human Bondage” by William Somerset Maugham and “The Cider House Rules” by John Irving.
The aim of the Bachelor Thesis is to explore structural and poetic elements (canons) of the Bildungsroman in the aforementioned novels.
To achieve the aim the following objectives have been set: 1) to overview the history of the Bildungsroman and to present theoretical poetic elements of such a genre; 2) to identify the key features of the Bildungsroman in the aforementioned novels; 3) to carry out the comparative analysis of the novels in the aspect of the Bildungsroman.
The methodology of the Bachelor Thesis includes Jerome Buckley’s conception of the Bildungsroman, which was employed to trace the features of the Bildungsroman in chosen novels. Also, Gintaras Lazdynas’s structural and poetic elements (canons) of the Bildungsroman, presented in his book, were referred to in the present research were used. The comparative literature as a method (the definition of Tötösy de Zepetnek) enabled to analyze novels in the comparative aspect.
Novels portray typical protagonists of the Bildungsroman genre whose quest towards self-identity is long, gradual and full of challenges. However, such journey towards spiritual maturity is crucial, as it provides heroes with a life education and new experiences. Therefore, at the end of their journey, after completion...

Bakalauro darbo tikslas – atskleisti, kaip pasirinktuose romanuose atsispindi tradiciniai bildungsromano žanro struktūriniai ir poetiniai elementai (kanonai). Tikslui pasiekti buvo iškelti šie uždaviniai: 1) apžvelgti bildungsromano istoriją, bei pristatyti šio žanro kanonus (poetinius ir struktūrinius elementus); 2) atpažinti pagrindines bildungsromano žanro ypatybes pasirinktuose kūriniuose; 3) analizuoti romanus lyginamuoju bildungsromano aspektu. Bakalauro darbo metodologija apima Jerome’o Buckley’o bildungsromano koncepciją, norint identifikuoti šio žanrinio tipo romano ypatybes pasirinktuose kūriniuose. Taip pat darbe buvo naudojami Gintaro Lazdyno išskirti bildungsromano struktūriniai ir poetiniai elementai (kanonai). Komparatyvistinė literatūra kaip metodas (Tötösy de Zepetneko apibrėžimas) leido analizuoti tris grožinės literatūros romanus lyginamuoju aspektu. Romanai vaizduoja klasikinius bildungsromano protagonistus, kurių kelias link harmonijos bei savęs suradimo yra ilgas, laipsniškas bei pilnas išbadymų. Toks kelias, vedantis link dvasinės brandos, yra labai svarbus, nes būtent šios kelionės metu herojai pereina gyvenimo mokyklą bei įgyja naujos patirties. Būtent dėl šios priežasties savo kelionės pabaigoje, įveikę įvairias dvasinio vystymosi... [toliau žr. visą tekstą]

Resumo: A presente dissertação de mestrado dedica-se a verificar como o romance de Thomas Mann A montanha mágica poderia filiar-se ao gênero literário do Bildungsroman. Sua introdução é um breve comentário sobre o estabelecimento do gênero literário do Bildungsroman enquanto tal, seguido de um excurso, igualmente breve, aos temas que ocupavam Thomas Mann aquando da redação deste seu romance, mediante a identificação de temas centrais das Betrachtungen eines Unpolitischen (Considerações de um apolítico). Feito isto, parte-se ao trabalho propriamente dito de pôr A montanha mágica ao lado do romance de Goethe Anos de aprendizado de Wilhelm Meister, paradigma do gênero em causa, para investigar o proveito em lê-Io como Bildungsroman. A própria questão sobre o que seria efetivamente um Bildungsroman desperta polêmica até os dias atuais. Discutir A montanha mágica na qualidade de Bildungsromanimplica,pois - sempretacitamente-, em voltar à pergunta sobre o que teria feito dos Anos de aprendizado de Wilhelm Meister o primeiro romance de uma série que constituiu tradição dentro da literatura de língua alemã. Mas esta pergunta não é apresentada como tal no corpo do texto, pois o que se pretendeu foi cingir-se a aproximar ambos os romances e esclarecer como este expediente é eficaz para compreendê-Ios. Seja como for, espera-se que mesmo a investigação do gênero tomada em si mesma sempre possa aproveitar-se das diversas incursões que se têm feito ao longo do tempo àquelas obras a ele imputadas
Zusammenfassung: In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird der Frage nachgegangen, inwieweit Thomas Manns Roman Der Zauberberg der literarischen Gattung des Bildungsromans zugeordnet werden kann. Die Einleitung der Arbeit besteht aus einem Kurzkommentar über die Entstehung der literarischen Gattung des Bildungsromans; dem folgt, indem die zentralen Themen aus Betrachtungen eines Unpolitischen bestimmt werden, ein Exkurs über die Themen, die Thomas Mann zur Zeit der Niederschrift des Romans beschãftigten. Im Hauptteil der Arbeit wird Der Zauberberg dem Roman von Goethe Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre - dem Paradigma der Gattung - zur Seite gestellt, und es wird untersucht, ob Thomas Manns Buch in produktiver Weise aIs Bildungsroman gelesen werden kann. Die Frage, was eigentlich ein Bildungsroman sei, ist auch in heutiger Zeit noch umstritten. Eine Betrachtung Des Zauberbergs aIs Bildungsroman impliziert aIso immer auch - wenngleich unausgesprochen - eine Rückbetrachtung der Gründe, die Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre zum ersten Roman einer Gattung werden lieBen, die sich dann - aus heutiger Sicht - aIs Tradition in der deutschsprachigen Literatur etabliert hat. Dieser Fragestellung wird jedoch im HauptteiI der Arbeit nicht nachgegangen, da dieser sich darauf beschrãnkt, beide Romane gegenüberzustellen, um dadurch aufzuklãren, ob dieser Weg geeignet ist, sie zu verstehen. Es wird jedoch gehofft, dass eine Untersuchung der Gattung aIs solche aus den verschiedenen Annãherungen, die im Lauf der Zeit an ihr unterstellte Werke gemacht wurden, Nutzen ziehen kann

Church, Joanne. "Jennifer Johnston and the Bildungsroman heroine". Thesis, McGill University, 1992. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=61281.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Jennifer Johnston, a contemporary Irish novelist, has written nine novels thus far encompassing a wide thematic range. While her protagonists include both male and female, in the three novels, The Old Jest, The Christmas Tree, and The Invisible Worm we witness the emergence of a new kind of heroine: the female Bildungsroman protagonist. I begin my study with a discussion of the traditional Bildungsroman as a male project, which traces the growth and self-development of an adolescent as he approaches maturity. A reformulation is then established allowing for a female version of the genre while differentiating between stories of the failure of development, such as Jane Eyre, and Johnston's stories where development is realized. I propose to demonstrate how Johnston's works exemplify the Bildungsroman form and also explore questions relevant to female development such as the protagonist's relationship to work, to love, to family, to tradition, and to writing.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis has two aims. The first one is to elucidate how Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (1865) functions as a Bildungsroman, and the other one is to demonstrate how the novel also has a coming of age aspect based on feminism. Whilst Alice matures in the traditional sense, she also in parallel does so as a stronger female fighting for gender rights with signs of feminism. The feminist angle as well as the surreal world of Wonderland makes the novel a not very obvious Bildungsroman in a genre dominated by male protagonists. For Alice to be a young female child who ends up in a fantasy world thus makes her a very fascinating character. The central hypothesis of this thesis is that what Alice is exposed to and reacts to in Wonderland generally reflects the genre of a Bildungsroman and also specifically a feminist Bildungsroman. Theoretical framework is based on the ideas of Franco Moretti, Mikhail Bakhtin, Thomas Jeffers, Carol Lazzaro-Weis, George Eliot and Elizabeth Drew Stoddard, as well as novels by Eliot and Stoddard. This includes dynamic protagonists, unpredictable development, symbols of modernity, the quest for universality, and minor characters who make sure that the protagonist develops, as well as feminist struggle by means of disregarding the ‘cult of true womanhood’ in a genre and society dominated by men.

Bristow-Smith, Adam. "Growing up neoliberal : the Bildungsroman under neoliberalism". Thesis, University of York, 2018. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/20597/.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Since the 1970s, the world has seen the ascendance of a new form of global capitalism and, underlying it, a new ideology with its own set of core beliefs and assumptions: neoliberalism. The rise of neoliberalism has had a profound effect on society, culture, and life worldwide. This thesis offers an analysis of one part of that broader socio-cultural picture. It explores how a specific cultural form with a particular societal focus, the literary genre of the Bildungsroman, has been adapted by authors seeking to use the genre to address the dominant political-social system of their day. The Bildungsroman has its roots in the rise of capitalism, and the exploration of certain socio-political problems is central to the genre through its core focus on the relationship between human development, the individual, and society. As such, the rise of a new, dominant form of capitalism has particular significance for it. Taking four novels by four significant authors from across the lifespan of neoliberalism – Ursula K. Le Guin’s The Dispossessed (1974), David Foster Wallace’s Infinite Jest (1996), Margaret Atwood’s Oryx and Crake (2003), and Roberto Bolaño’s 2666 (2004) – this thesis examines how each author has sought to examine, reclaim, redeploy, and problematise the genre in order to address neoliberalism. Two key features of neoliberalism are of particular significance here: neoliberal ideology’s individualised models of human behaviour and societal functioning, and neoliberal capitalism’s global dominance and systemic functioning. Each case-study demonstrates something about how these aspects of neoliberalism have overlapped with, co-opted, and undermined core elements that enable the Bildungsroman to function as a tool for socio-political exploration and critique, and so about how neoliberalism functions culturally. Through these analyses, this thesis explores not only what neoliberalism can tell us about the Bildungsroman but also what the Bildungsroman can tell us about neoliberalism.

Cunill, Rebeca. "El Bildungsroman femenino de Ángeles Mastretta y Carmen Boullosa: Hacia una perspectiva posmoderna". FIU Digital Commons, 2016. http://digitalcommons.fiu.edu/etd/2497.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The traditional Bildungsroman that originated in Europe toward the end of the 18th Century embodied the concept of progress and the belief in the Enlightenment ideals of universality, knowledge and the search for truth. In the classic model of the genre the values of the society represented, those of modernity, are ultimately legitimized. In this dissertation, I argue that the female Bildungsroman of Ángeles Mastretta and Carmen Boullosa respond to a fundamentally postmodern aesthetics and ideological framework. In their novels, “Arráncame la vida” (1985), “Antes” (1989), “Mal de amores” (1995) and “Treinta años” (1999), the Mexican writers challenge the legitimacy of the modern ideals of progress and individual maturity that characterized the traditional, European, male Bildungsroman. These texts reject the essentialist and utopian representation of progressive personal growth and achievement that would invariably lead to a fixed state of maturity.
My study of Mastretta’s and Boullosa’s representations of the Bildung process draws on postmodern theories such as those proposed by Jean-François Lyotard, Linda Hutcheon and Zygmunt Bauman, among others. Their protagonists’ subversive and contestatory attitudes toward many of modernity’s most disseminated master narratives –the traditional concept of maturity, of a coherent sense of self and of childhood and adolescence as steps toward a definitive personal identity, suggest a revision of the traditional principles of the genre. In the context of contemporary Mexican society, these texts ultimately suggest the inadequacy of the conventional form of the coming of age novel to represent the process of individual development. In postmodern Mexico, as this study demonstrates, the referents of modernity have lost their hegemonic value and therefore, the conventional model of the coming of age novel must be reinvented. The implications of the novelists’ reconceptualization of the genre are twofold; on the one hand, it suggests an emancipatory defiance of the modern concepts of individual progress and perfectibility, while on the other, it demands a high degree of tolerance toward the ambiguous and plural nature of postmodern representations of women’s formative journeys.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis consists of a novella and an accompanying exegesis. The exegesis is a critical reflection on the process of creative writing and research that resulted in The Deaths (the novella-Bildungsroman here included). The fiction-writing process also hinged on the periodic specialist-reader feedback of my supervisor, which was brought to bear at various major draft stages. The practical impact of this feedback is also reflected in the exegesis. The exegesis is by no means offered as exhaustive, or prescriptive; it is not a manifesto on how to write a novella-Bildungsroman (or, more specifically a novella-Künstlerroman/artist’s-novel). Rather, taken with the fictional product, this praxis-oriented writing may indirectly, or, in principle, inform a literary creative writing process through the cycles of planning, composition, revision, research and re-development. Read in conjunction with the novella, the exegesis may provide apprentice novellaists with a working definition of a particular contemporary Australian novella-Bildungsroman: one that is flexible, genre-focused, research-driven and evidence-based. It is hoped that writers will find useful the practical insights into the dominant structural forces and modalities that shaped The Deaths as a hybrid genre (novella-Bildungsroman), and those less central, sub-generic, elements which also pertain to The Deaths. Similarly, the literary-critical principles engaged with to address the challenges of realising this novella-Bildungsroman may be useful for contemporary Australian creative writers of ‘literary’ fiction.

My study examines contemporary Asian American narratives of subject formation through the theoretical lens of the Bildungsroman. A European genre originating in late-eighteenth- and early-nineteen-century Germany, the conventional Bildungsroman is a literary tool whose main objective is to depict an idealized subject's modern socialization. As Franco Moretti nicely captures in his study of the Bildungsroman, The Way of the World, the genre's significance is, above all, its successful representation of a reconciliation of an individual's revolting desires and society's regulatory demands. While highlighting a harmonious convergence of an individual and society, Moretti points to a white European subject's becoming a normative citizen in the rise of bourgeois capitalism. American writers of Asian descent have both utilized and transformed the conventional Bildungsroman form to describe their particular subject formation in the United States. The Asian American Bildungsroman differs from the white American as well as the European Bildungsroman, both formally and thematically, mainly because the racial group's social, political, and economic conditions have been marked by the U.S. exclusion of Asians. Asian American writers' generic interventions of the Bildungsroman thus exhibit their distinctive formal interventions and textual strategies to respond to legal and social exclusions of Asians in this country. In reading four Asian American narratives of subject formation, either novelistic or (auto)biographical in form, I argue the writers invented new versions of the genre, including the communal, the assimilative, the deconstructive, and the competitive Bildungsromane. This dissertation examines how conditions of textual expressions of the contemporary Asian American Bildungsroman have been not only predominantly marked by race but also further affected by class. The significance of the Asian American Bildungsroman is at once its interrogation of the contradiction within the American ideals and its construction of Asian American subjecthood.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Jane Austen wrote her novels over two hundred years ago. Today many people, especially women, are still affected by them and her characters. She has become famous through her romantic novels where she writes about young women during the late 18th century who spend their days drinking tea and socializing in order to find a man, marry him and live happily ever after. Even though Austen writes romance and her novels remind the reader of fairy tales, she also focuses on presenting important passages and events that occur in these young women’s lives. Many of the novels Austen has written have features of a so-called Bildungsroman; a novel about education which refers to a character’s growth and self-development. The structure of a Bildungsroman often includes the main character, the protagonist, going on a long journey or quest in search of the meaning of life. In this essay I will analyse the heroine’s education in Austen’s two novels Northanger Abbey and Mansfield Park and how Austen educates the reader with these novels. The purpose of this essay is to show that the heroines in Northanger Abbey and Mansfield Park under a long period of time receive moral education through different people and events during their lives. However, it is not only the characters that are educated, my opinion is that the reader is educated as well. Both the reader and the heroines are taught that happiness can only be achieved by good education and high moral standards. I will use some of the features of a Bildungsroman, such as journey, self-development, obstacles and maturity and by examining these features in the novels, I will support my thesis.

Farmer, Sandra Jean. "'Trustees of posterity' : Benjamin Disraeli and the European 'Bildungsroman'". Thesis, Middlesex University, 1992. http://eprints.mdx.ac.uk/13473/.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis studies Benjamin Disraeli's use of the form of the "Bildungsroman" to invent and discover himself. It shows how Disraeli's own life was developing as a "Bildungsroman" while writing four of his twelve novels, Contarini Fleming, Coningsby, Sybil and Lothair, during the period 1832-1870. As each of these four novels is studied in turn in Chapters I-IV respectively, Disraeli's recurring hero appears in four guises, thus illustrating how the form of the "Bildungsroman" undergoes subtle changes. In the open-ended Contarini Fleming (1832) with its emphasis on youth and ambition, Disraeli had intended to create a work similar to the classical German "Bildungsroman" portraying the development of a character. Despite its many comparisons with Goethe's paradigmatic Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre, Disraeli's early novel has more of an affinity with Stendhal's Le rouge et Ie noire. The eponymous hero of Coningsby has the distinguishing quality of "insipidness" and is seen from the perspective of an exemplary class representative of the aristocracy. This novel is taken as an example of the English "Bildungsroman", an English "fairy story" because Coningsby's destiny is already predetermined. The hero of Sybil, Charles Egremont's conviction is that one's identity is not inherited but created, which returns to the classical ideal of "Bildung", and which Disraeli reformulated as "vocation". It is argued that poverty and its relief was not the theme of Sybil but was used to point to the opportunities open to a reeducated aristocracy. In Chapter IV it is shown that it is only with Lothair, written in old age, that Disraeli discovers himself and achieves a successful classical "Bildungsroman". The narrator evaluates the represented events in a restrained and indirect manner and demonstrates a concern with analysing what is involved in the hero's discovery of himself and the world. The "Bildungsroman's" valorization of the existing social order prompts Lothair to look towards the past. He refuses to consider the future still open and his discontinuation of the quest for a philosophy of life is presented as a sign of his achieved maturity and his "Bildung" is concluded. In these four self-referential works Disraeli constructed a composite character whose biography was that of the author himself.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis explores the relevance of the Bildungsroman genre to a selection of Northern Irish writing from the 1960s through to the late 1990s. Synthesizing a range of critical approaches it shows how six novels by Leitch, Duffaud, Patterson, Deane, Madden and Molloy challenge the traditional Bildungsroman. It brings the thwarted Bildungsroman into correspondence with the key elements of ‘minority discourse’ as defined by Mohamed and Lloyd (1990), focusing on subjectivity and identity position. Using Jameson’s concept of the ‘political unconscious’ the thesis demonstrates how fragmented and hybridised subjectivities challenge the two main Northern Irish identarian discourses, Irish nationalism and Ulster unionism. It argues that all six counter-Bildungsromane feature some of the characteristics of ‘minority discourse’ with one even providing an example of ‘minor writing’ as defined by Deleuze and Guattari (1975).

O objetivo da presente pesquisa é responder à pergunta se Uma aprendizagem ou o livro dos prazeres - UALP, romance de Clarice Lispector, pode ser analisado como um romance de formação feminino. A narrativa começa com uma vírgula, letra minúscula e a descrição do pensamento da protagonista, num momento de ansiedade. Não existe um enredo linear. Nos moldes da moderna literatura do século XX, exige-se do leitor uma participação ativa para as referências intertextuais, para a ambigüidade de uma leitura superficial e outra em palimpsesto e, principalmente, para as características de Bildungsromane femininos, como a forma epifânica do processo de iniciação feminino, a presença de um mentor masculino que não é o primeiro amante da protagonista, a ausência da mãe, a relação conflituosa com o pai e o rompimento com os padrões da sociedade patriarcal. Vale lembrar que essa é uma obra polêmica, apreciada por parte da crítica e julgada menor por alguns autores. Diane Marting e Rita Schmidt, entre outros, a consideram um Bildungsroman feminino. ________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
The aim of this research is to establish if Uma aprendizagem ou o livro dos prazeres – UALP is a female Bildungsroman, or not. The narrative begins with a comma, a small letter and the description of the protagonist’s thoughts in a moment of anxiety. There is no linear plot. As usual in the modern literature of the XXth C., the reader is invited to actively participate, finding intertextual references, in the ambiguity of a superficial reading and another, in palympsest, and mainly to the characteristics of the female Bildungsroman, as, for instance, the epiphanic way of the female initiation process, the presence of a male mentor, who is not the protagonist’s first lover, the absence of the mother, the conflictous relationship with the father and the breaking with the patterns of patriarchal society. It’s worthy to remember that this is a polemic book, approved by some critics and considered failed by others. Diane Marting and Rita Schmidt, among others, consider UALP a female Bildungsroman.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Scoundrel Days: a memoir reads as a first person bildungsroman adventure story set
between the years 1972 and 1998. It narrates from the perspective of an Australian
boy growing up in an obscure Christian cult in outback Queensland. To the casual
reader the text presents as a novel which requires no special introduction, instruction
or foreword. Written as creative nonfiction, Scoundrel Days has attained publication
(UQP 2017) and is marketed in the genre of memoir.
To the astute or critical reader Scoundrel Days presents a multi-linear
challenge. Written in first person present perfect, in a conscious effort to step outside
the genre definition while still retaining the central tenet of nonfiction, the text
occupies several distinct modal perspectives on the liminal field. This effect is
achieved via the employment of a juxtaposition of literary techniques, methodologies
and constraints. Several of these, used by many writers, require little effort to adopt
(minimalism, dramatica theory, et al.), but one of them, English Prime (E-Prime)
creates semantic memory interference and interlopes on subconscious language
processing systems. E-Prime used as a literary constraint “offers access to dynamics
of language ordinarily subliminal” (Zimmerman 2001). Experiments with this
constraint reveal a proliferation of transliminal detail, the space between the
supraliminal and subliminal spectrum of the narrative usually occupied with
presumptions made with the is of identity and the is of predication. Communication
theory tells us the quality of a message depends on the ratio of signal to noise. A
conscious manipulation of dynamic signals inherent in English utilising E-Prime as a
literary constraint requires a complete overhaul of not only personal writing stylistics,
but individual ways of seeing and thinking about our semiotic environment; i.e.
“Writing/speaking in the English language without the copula; excluding tenses of the
verb to be (are, am, is, was, were, be, been and being) and/or their contractions”
(Bourland 1989: 203). If, as Bourland suggests, misuse of the copula results in Deity
mode of speech (Bourland Jr & Kellogg III, 1990) then not using the copula results in
Human mode of speech. I composed the creative work using this constraint.
Typically a literary work composed using a constraint requires some form of
explicit instruction for the reader. Scoundrel Days does not require any reading
instructions. Research reveals that since the invention of the constraint in 1933 until
the present no one has written a creative work in 100% E-Prime (Bourland Jr &
Kellogg III, 1990). Therefore, I present Scoundrel Days as the first creative work in
history written in 100% English Prime. The result? The problem of show don’t tell
fades to insignificance as the narrative moves from the showing to the doing. The
process of authoring this work proved an interesting and creative endeavor, recorded in following exegesis.Thesis (PhD Doctorate)

Mansouri, Shahriyar. "The modern Irish Bildungsroman : a narrative of resistance and deformation". Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2014. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/5495/.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
My thesis examines the ways in which the critical structure of modern Irish Bildungsroman deconstructs and re-examines ‘residues of past trauma’ in the form of socio-cultural, psychological, personal and notably political artefacts present in the nation’s unfortunate engagement with the State’s politics of formation. The result is a resistant and radical form which challenges the classical and modern specificity of the genre by introducing a non-conformist, post-Joycean protagonist, whose antithetical perception of history and socio-cultural norms contradicts the conservative efforts of the post-independence Irish State. To examine such a resistant critical structure, this thesis focuses on Roddy Doyle’s A Star Called Henry (1999), Dermot Bolger’s The Woman’s Daughter (1987), William Trevor’s The Story of Lucy Gault (2002), Seamus Deane’s Reading In The Dark (1996), Patrick McCabe’s The Butcher Boy (1992), Frank McCourt’s Angela’s Ashes (1996), Edna O’Brien’s The Country Girls (1960) and A Pagan Place (1970), Nuala O’Faolain’s Are You Somebody? (1996), Francis Stuart’s Black List, Section H (1971), Flann O’Brien’s The Hard Life (1961), and John McGahern’s The Dark (1965). The selected novels provide an invaluable insight into the nation’s perception of sensitive concepts such as modernism and modern Irish identity, and how the confluence of these two produced a critical dialectical discourse which chronicles the formation of a non-conformist, ahistorical modern protagonist. To achieve a historical relevance, this thesis starts by examining Doyle’s fictionalization of 1916 Easter Rising and the chaotic 1920s; Bolger’s exploration of a repressive, inward-looking post-independence Irish society in the 1930s and the 1940s; Trevor’s engagement with a socio-political divide that further split the nation; Deane’s autogenous reading of an internal neocolonial ‘Othering’ during the ‘emergency’; McCabe’s illustration of the State’s architecture of oppression, and societal introversion from the early 1940s to the 1960s; Edna O’Brien’s and Nuala O’Faolain’s exemplary illustration of women’s blighted sexual Bildung in the 1940s, 50s and 60s; and finally examining a radical, ‘chronocentric’ depiction of a socio-political divide fictionalized by Stuart and McGahern, which emerged during the early days of the State and continued to dominate the nation well into the 1960s and the early 1970s. By examining psycho-social, sexual and political traumata reflected in the modern Irish Bildungsroman, this thesis provides a dialectical reading of the gap that appeared between the revolutionary ethos of independent Irish identity formation, rooted in the principles of 1916 Rising and the 1920s, and that which appeared in the form of a tolerant republicanism in the 1980s. To study this socio-historical gap, I examine the nation’s criticism of the State’s politics and structure of formation, manifested in narratives of individual and national formation. The modern Irish Bildungsroman, I argue, appropriates the traditional features of the genre, for instance, chronicling the individual’s psychosocial formation and the potential to re-engage with their society, and produces a critical matrix for a dialectical discourse which enables the nation to voice their concerns vis-à-vis a politically dichotomous post-independence Irish society, a repressed history, and at the same time to externalize their perception of modern Irish formation, being founded on an anti-colonial, non-conservative and politically aware consciousness. The result, which I call the ‘Meta-National Narrative of Formation,’ is a historically resistant and socio-politically conscious narrative which finds independence in rejection, imposition, and deformation, namely, by defying the State’s architecture of formation as well as their nativist, retrograde visions of Irish identity.

How can an adult make meaning from and develop through experiences of mental illness, spiritual awareness, and death? The purpose of this autoethnographic bildungsroman is to explore how a male in the general population describes how life events have influenced his identity development over a period of 23 years, spanning three decades. The researcher-participant asks two primary questions: 1) How does the individual describe his adult development in terms of life events or “individual and cultural episodes” (Smith & Taylor, 2010, p. 52) related to mental illness, spiritual awareness, and death over time? and 2) How does the individual describe his possible selves in constructing a new sense of identity? Addressing these questions contributes to the literature of adult and continuing education by providing a glimpse into stories of lived experiences over time in the light of adult development.

Este trabalho inicia-se com a apresentação do autor, sua importância literária e seu contexto histórico, e tem por objetivo analisar a trajetória de Aniceto Hevia, narrador autodiegético do romance Hijo de Ladrón, de Manuel Rojas. O romance se articula em torno aos problemas e experiências das classes socialmente marginalizadas e dos conflitos sociais e econômicos do proletariado no Chile entre o fim do século XIX e o início do XX. Observaremos o Bildungsroman Clássico, gênero discursivo originado na Alemanha, em meio à difusão das ideias burguesas de fins do século XVIII. O intuito aqui é observar como o livro de Rojas, inscrito em um contexto afastado pelo tempo, espaço e circunstâncias sócio econômicas do paradigma do Bildungsroman, mantém afinidades de ponto de vista e de conteúdo em relação ao gênero clássico em questão.This work begins with the introduction to the author, to his literary importance as well as to his historical context, and it has the purpose of analyzing Hevia Anicetos pathway, who is the autodiegetic narrator in the novel Hijo de Ladrón by Manuel Rojas. The novel revolves around the problems and the experiences lived by the socially marginalized classes, and also around the social and economic conflicts experienced by the proletariat in Chile from the end of the 19th Century to the beginning of the 20th Century. We will observe the Classic Bildungsroman, which is a discursive gender originated in Germany in the midst of the dissemination of bourgeois ideas from the end of the 18th Century. Our purpose here is to observe how Rojas book, which is inserted in a context kept away by time, space and socio-economic circumstances of the Bildungsroman paradigm, maintains content and viewpoint affinities in relation to the classical gender in question.

Nella seconda parte, a partire dalle caratteristiche e dagli elementi principali del bildungsroman già evidenziati, si presenta un confronto tra due romanzi novecenteschi: Agostino di Alberto Moravia e Le ceneri di Angela di Frank McCourt. Ne vengono evidenziate le differenze e le somiglianze, dovute alle differenze culturali, allo sfondo storico, all’ambiente familiare dei protagonisti e più in generale alle differenze della narrativa moraviana e di McCourt. Emerge così la poliedricitá e allo stesso tempo l'universalità di questo genere letterario particolare, in grado di essere presente in periodi storici anche molto distanti fra loro.
Nell’ultimo capitolo si analizzano le trasposizioni cinematografiche dei due romanzi, così da offrire delle riflessioni sui motivi che rendono questo genere così apprezzato dal mondo cinematografico.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Esta tesis pretende estudiar el género de la novela de formación o bildungsroman, nacido en la Alemania de Goethe y en la Irlanda de Joyce con sus obras Los años de aprendizaje de Wilhelm Meister y Retrato del artista adolescente, en la literatura española contemporánea y, concretamente, en la obra narrativa de autoras españolas que escribieron y publicaron su obra durante el pasado siglo.
Para ello, se realiza, en primer lugar, un análisis de las características propias del género y de sus posibles antecedentes en la literatura española previa al siglo XX (desde el Lazarillo, hasta la novela de artista de Emilia Pardo Bazán, pasando por el Quijote como referencia indispensable en la literatura no sólo española sino universal) , para, seguidamente, estudiar su clara entrada en la narrativa española a partir de principios del siglo XX de la mano de autores como de Pío Baroja, Azorín, Ramón Pérez de Ayala o Manuel Azaña, con títulos tales como Camino de perfección, La voluntad, A.M.D.G. y El jardín de los frailes, novelas que anteceden a las que van a estudiarse en el grueso de la tesis.
Seguidamente, la tesis se centra en el desarrollo del bildungsroman en la narrativa de diez autoras clave del siglo XX español: Rosa Chacel, Carmen Laforet, Carmen Martín Gaite, Ana María Matute, Josefina Aldecoa, Clara Janés, Ana María Moix, Soledad Puértolas, Nuria Amat e Irene Gracia., analizándose los elementos comunes propios del género que pueden encontrarse en sus siguientes novelas: Barrio de maravillas, Nada, Entre visillos, Primera memoria, La Casa Gris, Jardín y laberinto, Julia, Cielo nocturno, La intimidad y Fiebre para siempre.
El análisis de las obras se estructura alrededor de ocho temáticas propias del bildungsroman que se desarrollan en todas y cada una de las novelas : carácter autobiográfico de las obras analizadas, en las que, en ocasiones, la frontera entre autor y narrador queda difuminada; importancia de la labor artística como elemento integrante de la formación del protagonista y, muchas veces, finalidad última de evolución del personaje; la identidad diferencial de las protagonistas, todas ellas aisladas a menudo de su entorno por su condición de diferentes; el papel clave de las figuras paterna y materna y la trascendencia de su ausencia o de su omnipresencia; la importancia de los mentores femeninos que, en muchas de las novelas, se convierten en modelos a evitar precisamente por su papel represor o anti-evolutivo; la necesidad frustrada de comunicación con el otro, sea este otro el grupo de pares en el que debe desarrollarse el personaje, el primer amor o el alma gemela anhelada; el espacio físico como determinante de la evolución del protagonista, básicamente a partir de un contraste claro entre un interior impuesto y claustrofóbico y un exterior que se identifica con la ansiada libertad; y el logro o no de la meta última de convertirse en adulto individual e independiente.
Finalmente, s e proponen algunas correlaciones con otras obras pertenecientes al género del bildungsroman pero que, por la limitación de la tesis, no han quedado recogidas en ella.This thesis tries to analyse the bildungsroman or coming of age novel genre, born in Goethe’s Germany and Joyce’s Ireland with the two representative novels Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre and Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man, throughout the Spanish Contemporary Literature and, especially, throughout the novels of Spanish women writers who build their work during the 20th century. First of all, there is a detailed explanation of the genre characteristics as well as the tradition of this genre in Spanish literature before the 20th Century (from the Lazarillo to Emilia Pardo Bazán’s artist novel, also considering the influence of the Quijote as a compulsory reference not only in Spanish literature but also in literature in any language). Secondly, this work studies the genre at the beginning of 20th Century Spanish literature through the works of Pío Baroja, Azorín, Ramón Pérez de Ayala and Manuel Azaña, Camino de perfección, La voluntad, A.M.D.G. and El jardín de los frailes. Following with these two introductory chapters, the main chapter of this thesis is the approachment to the bildungsroman novels of ten Spanish women authors in 20th Century Spanish literature: Rosa Chacel, Carmen Laforet, Carmen Martín Gaite, Ana María Matute, Josefina Aldecoa, Clara Janés, Ana María Moix, Soledad Puértolas, Nuria Amat and Irene Gracia, taking into account the common elemnts we can find in their novels: Barrio de maravillas, Nada, Entre visillos, Primera memoria, La Casa Gris, Jardín y laberinto, Julia, Cielo nocturno, La intimidad and Fiebre para siempre. The common elements analysed in the thesis are: the autobiographica character of the novels; the importance of the artistic and creative element in the evaluation of the main character; the condition of outsider of the main character; the importance of the father and mother characters, either being absent or too present, in the development of the main character; the role of the femenine adult references; the need of communication with the pair group, very often impossible to achieve; the physical entourage of the protagonist, usually a claustrophobic space; the main goal of becoming an independent adult person oppossed to the child or adolescent who starts the novel. Finally, I propose some other works that are related to these ten novels as a suggestion for further investigation in the bildugnsroman genre in Spanish literature.

The aim of the present study is to rebuild the way in which Schelling's later philosophy –that which is represented by his reflection concerning mythology and rational foundations of revelation– describes the triple division of the Absolute in diverse potencies that takes place with the entry of God in temporality and becoming. The process that leads to such fragmentation of the divine is interpreted as a formation novel” analogous to the odyssey that the finite conscience experiences as a result of its constituent openness to Being.El propósito del presente estudio es reconstruir el modo en el que la filosofía tardía de Schelling, aquella representada por su reflexión acerca de la mitología y los fundamentos racionales de la revelación, describe la triple escisión del Absoluto en potencias diversas que tiene lugar con el ingreso de Dios en la temporalidad y el devenir. El proceso que da lugar a esta fragmentación de lo divino es interpretado como un relato de formación” paralelo a la odisea que la conciencia finita experimenta como consecuencia de su constitutiva apertura al Ser.

The Emancipation of Celie: The Color Purple as a womanist Bildungsroman
The purpose of this essay is to study The Color Purple as a Bildungsroman, focusing on the development of the protagonist, Celie. The Color Purple is related to both the traditional Bildungsroman and to the female Bildungsroman, but the essay shows that it can also be seen as a womanist Bildungsroman. Initially, Celie believes that being a woman inescapably means that she has to serve and obey men and she is oppressed by patriarchy. She is eventually introduced to another way of living by the strong female characters of Sofia and Shug who embrace her in a kind of sisterhood, which is vital for Celie as she has nothing else to help her liberate herself from the patriarchal values that keep her down. In conclusion, this essay shows how Celie has developed from being a young girl, forced to act in an adult way, into a woman who displays signs of all the criteria for having achieved a womanist development: she is grown up (not just acting as though she is), she is in charge of a business, a house and, in short, her life. She is serious, she has a universalist perspective, and most importantly, she loves. Furthermore, the essay highlights which characteristics of her development can be linked to the traditional and the female Bildungsroman and which characteristics can be seen as typical of a womanist Bildungsroman.

Abstract: This thesis is an examination of the representation of women in the contemporary female Bildungsromane, Rubyfruit Jungle (1973), by Rita Mae Brown, and Hotel du Lac (1984), by Anita Brookner.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
In this dissertation I intervene in and challenge already-existing critical studies of Virginia Woolf's The Waves (1931) that focus on ideas of imperialism, empire and subject-making practices in the novel by arguing for a revisionist reading of The Waves as a Bildungsroman. Unlike the Bildungsroman of the eighteenth and nineteenth century, which utilised standard novelistic conventions to explore the relation between form and reality, I contend that The Waves is a thoroughly modernist reinvention of the Bildungsroman form designed to capture a rapidly industrialising and modernising English society. To capture the socio-political unrest in twentieth-century England at this time, Woolf deviates from the convention of a single-protagonist narration, using multiple perspectives to expose the contradictions in processes of self-formation, especially with regard to the relation between the self, nation and national identity. The correspondence between self, nation and national identity is explored through the silent seventh character, Percival, who I argue is characterised as a hero in the medieval romance tradition to expose the romantic and heroic fictional narratives that provided the framework for ideas of empire and imperialism, then at the core of nationhood and national identity in England. Conversely I argue that the character who narrates a third of the novel's narrative, Bernard, provides us with an alternative to empire and imperialism in subject-making practices. I argue that in the final section of The Waves Bernard deviates from the direct-speech narrative of preceding sections of the novel and engages the reader directly. The reader is thus alerted not only to his or her role as a reader, but also to Bernard's overarching role as primary protagonist in the novel. The reader has progressed alongside Bernard through the narrative in keeping with the genre designation of the Bildungsroman which encourages the progression of the reader alongside the progression of the primary protagonist. The reader is further encouraged in his or her progression by an aesthetic education present in the music and poetry that Woolf incorporates not only in the content, but in the very structure of the text. Two of the novel's characters, Louis and Neville, use poetry to locate their subjectivities within larger historical narratives, while Beethoven's String Quartet No. 13 in B♭ major, Opus 130, informs the structure of the text, contributing to the interactive sonic and non-sonic landscape that actively invites the participation of the reader. The reader's participation in the novel is most fully realised when Bernard addresses the reader directly in the final section of The Waves. This interaction explains and thus concretises Woolf's overarching critiques of empire and imperialism in the novel alongside her proposed methods - which directly oppose the ideology of imperialism - for developing a subjectivity formed in relation to the common, and the individual experience of the common as a historically and materially determined phenomenon. The common in this sense is a community of 'common reading subjects', who like Woolf are not formally educated, but develop a subjectivity through reading premised on an equality of intelligence which enables them to engage critically with, order and make sense of the society and politics of their surrounding world. In this way, I show that Woolf challenges the already existing subject-making practices in twentieth-century England by exposing the contradictions - the exclusion of the marginalised, the poor and women - in ideas of Englishness. She proposes an alternative form of subject-making that is as diverse as her reading public and premised on a non-exclusionary acknowledgement of an equality of intelligence that defies class, gender and social boundaries.
