1. Satellites in Comparative Literature or How to Rectify the Western : A comparative study of feminist criticism in Blood Meridian and In the Distance

2. « Ne plus jamais le quitter est devenu sa seule volonté » : Stéréotypes de genre dans les romans de Virginie Grimaldi
Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för språk, litteratur och lärandeSammanfattning : Dans ce mémoire, nous exposons les stéréotypes de genre dans trois romans de l’auteure àsuccès Virginie Grimaldi, à savoir Le premier jour du reste de ma vie (Grimaldi 2015), Quand nos souvenirs viendront danser (Grimaldi 2019) et Et que ne durent que les moments doux (Grimaldi 2020). En analysant les romans d’un point de vue sociocritique et en mettant l’accent sur la critique littéraire féministe, nous montrons que les romans contiennent cinq stéréotypes : l’idée que les femmes sont soumises et les hommes autoritaires, que les femmes sont inférieures et les hommes supérieurs, que les femmes sont émotives et les hommes rationnels, que les femmes sont passives et les hommes actifs, et que le mariage et la maternité sont la seule vraie voie vers le bonheur pour les femmes.
