The purpose of this thesis was to study how four swedish lifestyle magazines: Veckorevyn and Cosmopolitan for women, King and Café for men, represent three groups of people and how often these people appear in the magazines. These groups are HBT, homosexuals, bisexuals and transsexuals, disabled and immigrants. The years we studied were 2007 and 2008.Our main questions were: How often do the three groups appear in the four magazines? How are the groups represented?

Läroböcker och genus : En kvalitativ studie av läroböckers beskrivning av genus i religionerna islam och hinduism
The purpose of this paper is to examine how gender in Islam and Hinduism are described in textbooks for high school. The study was conducted using a qualitative content analysis and also using a feminist gender theory and postcolonial feminist theory. All textbooks are written or revised after 2011 when The Swedish National Agency for Educations? new curriculum came into force.

Sagan om de klanlösa : En studie av små förlag och deras position på den svenska fantastikmarknaden
The aim of this thesis is to study the market for fantastic fiction in Sweden, focusing on the minor publishers and their relationship with the three major publishing groups. The fantastic fiction in Swedish today are generally dominated by bestselling anglo-american authors, especially at the major publishers. The selection of fantastic fiction that is not originally in English and that diverges from the classic, epic high fantasy is often provided by minor publishers. By researching the range of fantastic fiction in Sweden today, and combining that research with qualitative interviews with informants from five minor publishers and Sweden's largest book shop for fantastic fiction, I wish to examine if the minor publishers provide an important alternative for Swedish readers of fantastic fiction. I also intend to investigate whether those publishers actively try to broaden the Swedish market and if they see themselves as a complement and an alternative rather than competing with the major publishers.This is a study in sociology of literature, focusing on a literary genre that is generally regarded as popular or trivial literature.
Morphology of the Action Babe Cinema : En strukturell studie av 2000-talets filmer med kvinnliga actionhjältinnor
The subject of my thesis is what I have chosen to call the ?action babe cinema? of the 21st century, essentially action-movies featuring a female heroine in the lead role. Inspired by the theories of Vladímir Propp, author of Morphology of the Folktale, I have tried to reveal the underlying structure of these films. I have chosen eleven films which form my material, and from these extracted a number of functions (which means the actions of a character), that reoccur frequently. The heroines? transformation can be seen as a central theme of the action babe cinema, and I have divided the films into two groups depending on the course of the transformation, either from soft to hard or the other way around.
Kriminalitet sätter mannen på prov ? En studie av identitetsskapande i romanen Snabba Cash.
The aim of this Master?s thesis is to examine how representations of identity construction are performed through the characters in the novel Snabba Cash by author Jens Lapidus.

Den inramade kvinnan och den gränslösa "kvinnan" : - olika läsningar av en konstbild
AbstractINSTITUTION: Institutionen för kulturvetenskap LinnéuniversitetetADRESS: 351 95 VäxjöTELEFON: 0470-70 80 00HANDLEDARE: Hans T SternuddTITEL: Den inramade kvinnan och den gränslösa ?kvinnan? ? olika läsningar av en konstbild.ENGELSK TITEL: The framed woman and the limitless ?woman? ? different readings of a pictureFÖRFATTARE: Ewa BladhADRESS: Parkgatan 16 360 42 BraåsTYP AV UPPSATS: C-uppsatsVENTILERINGSTERMIN: Ht 2009 Uppsatsen syfte är att se hur olika läsningar av en konstbild påverkar bilden av den representerade kvinnan. I uppsatsen tolkas bilden utifrån tre olika läsningar, för att se hur bilden av den representerade kvinnan ändras och vad det kan ha för betydelse. De olika läsningarna har sin utgångspunkt i olika genusteorier, därefter jämförs analyserna med varandra, samt diskuteras utifrån syftet och frågeställningarna. Här relateras teori och material till varandra. Uppsatsen argumenterar för att ett queerperspektiv öppnar upp för fler tolkningsmöjligheter, genom att det uppmanar oss att tänka bortom uppdelningar och gränsdragningar. Performativitet är en bättre utgångspunkt för analysen av bilder där kvinnor är representerade, eftersom den kan möjliggöra en identifikation över genus- och sexualitetsgränser. Keyword: feministisk konstteori, genus, performativitet, queerteori, representation,.
