| Sažetak | Ovaj diplomski rad usredotočuje se na ispitivanje evolucije Disneyjevih princeza, ponajprije u
smislu njihove vizualne reprezentacije, ali i raznih drugih aspekata poput osobnosti,
sposobnosti, obiteljskih i romantičnih odnosa, i slično. Analiza evolucije princeza započela je
sa prvom Disney princezom, Snjeguljicom, koja spada u Eru domaćica, preko Ariel iz Ere
buntovnih i ambicioznih princeza, pa sve do najnovijih princeza neovisnog i slobodnog duha,
kakve su bile, primjerice Elsa, Anna i Moana. Analiza se je vršila u skladu sa prevladavajućom
ekonomskom, kulturalnom i društvenom situacijom, posebice onom feminističkom. Glavni cilj
ovog rada bio je analizirati tranformaciju Disney princeza suvremene faze, pritom stavljajući
fokus na princeze iz filmova Snježno kraljevstvo i Moana, i to u odnosu na princeze iz ranijih
faza, gdje se je, na partikularnijoj razini, propitivalo jesu li najnovije Disney princeze evoluirale
u smislu fizičkog izgleda, dinamike odnosa, njihovih osobnosti i sposobnosti, ili ta promjena,
u konačnici, ipak nije bila značajna, te se Disney, i u suvremenoj fazi, i dalje pridržava svoje
arhetipne, tradicionalne matrice. Također, ovaj rad analizira utjecaj tih promjena osobnosti na
osnaživanje, poglavito žena, te na izazivanje rodnih stereotipa.
Kroz potanko sagledavanje i propitivanje prikaza princeza iz Disneyjevih filmova, posebice
obraćajući pozornost na one suvremene, a pritom se oslanjajući na razne teorijske ideje, može
se uočiti pozitivna progresivna evolucija u vizualnoj reprezentaciji princeza, kao i u njihovim
romantičnim i obiteljskim odnosima, osobnostima i sposobnostima. No, iako Disney donekle
mijenja svoju ustaljenu formulu, ipak se u pojedinim filmovima suvremene faze i dalje nazire
pozadina tradicionalne patrijarhalne ideologije. |
| Sažetak (engleski) | This thesis focuses on examining the evolution of Disney princesses, primarily in terms of their
visual representation, but also various other aspects such as personality, abilities, familial and
romantic relationships and the like. The analysis of the evolution of the princess began with the
first ever Disney princess, Snow White, who belongs to the Domestic Era, through Ariel from
the Era of rebellious and Ambitious Princesses, all the way to the latest independent and
freespirited princesses, such as Elsa, Anna and Moana. The analysis was carried out in
accordance with the prevailing economic, cultural and social situation, especially the feminist
one. The main goal of this paper was to analyze the transformation of the Disney princesses of
the contemporary phase, while focusing on the princesses from the films Frozen and Moana, in
relation to the princesses from earlier phases, where, on a more particular level, it was
questioned whether the latest Disney princesses evolved in terms of their physical appearance,
relationship dynamics, their personality and abilities, or this change, ultimately, was not
significant, and Disney, even in the contemporary phase, still adheres to its archetypal,
traditional matrix. Also, this paper analyzes the impact of these personality changes on
empowerment, especially of women, and on challenging gender stereotypes.
Through a close examination and questioning of the depiction of princesses from Disney films,
paying special attention to contemporary ones, while relying on various theoretical ideas, a
positive progressive evolution can be observed in the visual representation of princesses, as
well as in their romantic and familial relationships, personalities and abilities. However, even
though Disney changes its established formula to some extent, the background of traditional
patriarchal ideology can still be seen in certain films of the contemporary phase. |
