dc.description.abstract | [spa] Esta tesis “compuesta” es el fruto de la unión entre los aspectos creativos, imaginativos y críticos de la escritura literaria. El objetivo general de su elaboración ha sido la creación y el examen crítico de un sujeto femenino, interdependiente y autónomo en la literatura. Como se trata de una tesis que nunca se había realizado en la Universidad de Barcelona, y porque uno de sus directores es profesor de la Universidad Southern Cross de Australia, la estructura se ajusta a las normas establecidas en esa institución: tres cuartas partes de la tesis es un trabajo creativo, Lucy, Go See, una novela de formación basada en una búsqueda; la cuarta parte es una exégesis crítica de la novela: A Quest to Self-Construct: Lucy Pilgrim’s Map. La exégesis gira en torno a la autoconstrucción en oposición a la autodestrucción en respuesta a una herida. Después de examinar la historia y la naturaleza de las “quests” y los Bildungsromans y situar la novela dentro de estos géneros, la exégesis rastrea eros, la voz y la herida a través del territorio vulnerable de la humanidad y explora cómo la colonización ha afectado a las relaciones personales. Por lo tanto, esta tesis es una investigación creativa, narrativa y crítica sobre el valor de eros, la voz y la herida como instrumentos y articulaciones de agencia constituidas a través de visiones de la subjetividad. | - |
dc.description.abstract | [eng] This composite thesis is the fruit of a marriage between the creative, imaginative, and critical aspects of writing. The overall aim of its elaboration has been the creation and critical examination of an autonomous interdependent female subject in literature. As it is a unique thesis at the University of Barcelona, and because one of its directors is Southern Cross University professor Baden Offord, the structure follows the regulations established at that institution: three-quarters of the thesis is a creative work: the novel, Lucy, Go See, a bildungsroman based on a quest. The other quarter is a critical exegesis: A Quest to Self-Construct: Lucy Pilgrim’s Map. The exegesis is concerned with self- construction as opposed to self-destruction in response to a wound. After examining the history and nature of quests and bildungsromans and situating the novel within these genres, the exegesis traces eros, voice and wound through the vulnerable territory of humanity and explores how colonization has affected personal relationships. Thus, this thesis is a creative, narrative, and critical inquiry into the value of eros, voice, and wound as instruments and articulations of agency constituted through visions of subjectivity. | - |
