This essay sides more with the latter interpretation but its aim is to encompass the...

Tijelo i tjelesnost u romanu Frida ili o boli Slavenke Drakulić
-
Valentina Mlivić Rad polazi od kartezijanskog shvaćanja odnosa duše/uma i tijela, teme koja je kroz povijest okupirala mnoge teoretičare. Iz toga odnosa, analogno, promatramo, odnos žene i muškarca, inzistirajući pri tome na feminističkom aspektu. Multidisciplinaran pristup fenomenu tijela svjedoči o njegovoj složenosti i različitom shvaćanju. Iako je u prošlosti bilo simbolom grešnog života pojedinca, tijelo je u svojem shvaćanju evolviralo te postalo simbolom umjetnosti, naročito žensko...

-
Nikol Bali Žena je u povijesti definirana u odnosu prema muškarcu, smatrajući se uvijek onim drugim, uz negativan prizvuk. Sredinom 20. stoljeća javila se misao da muškarac i žena jesu biološki definirane kategorije, ali da je njihovi rod, kao društvena kategorija, uvjetovan sredinom i kontekstom. S obzirom na to da su rodne uloge promjenjive ovisno o kontekstu, identitet koji je povezan s njima također je ovisan o kontekstu. Čovjek posjeduje bezbroj identiteta koji se konstantno iznova...
