Nasilje v sodobni mladinski književnosti

Krajšek, Anamarija (author), Pezdirc Bartol, Mateja (mentor), Virk, Tomo (mentor)

V magistrski nalogi se ukvarjam s sodobnimi mladinskimi problemskimi literarnimi deli, ki na različne načine tematizirajo problem nasilja. V analizo so vključena tri slovenska in tri tuja literarna dela, ki poleg mladega bralca nagovarjajo tudi odraslega. Eno od glavnih raziskovalnih vprašanj je, kako so v sodobni mladinski književnosti prikazane različne vrste nasilja. V nalogi se ukvarjam z vprašanjem, kako literarne osebe nasilje doživljajo in rešujejo ter s katerimi etičnimi vprašanji se ob tem srečujejo. Avtorji analiziranih literarnih del na idejno-sporočilni ravni opozarjajo na probleme in posledice nasilnih dejanj ter s svojimi pripovedmi izražajo kritiko družbe ali ustanov, v katerih prihaja do nasilja. V besedilih se najpogosteje pojavi prvoosebni pripovedovalec, ki je hkrati tudi glavni protagonist v najstniških letih. V središču pripovedi je mladostnikovo spopadanje s problemom in njegovo reševanje. Nekateri med njimi ga uspešno premagajo, nekateri mu podležejo, pri nekaterih je rešitev nejasna. Prevladujejo odprti konci, ki bralca puščajo brez dokončnih odgovorov na vprašanja in mu omogočajo, da premišljuje naprej. Analizirana literarna dela zahtevajo kritično literarno branje, s katerim se bralec empatično vživlja v položaje in doživljanja literarnih oseb, ko se med branjem ukvarja z etičnimi vprašanji, s katerimi se srečujejo literarne osebe v zgodbah.

• Title: Violence in Contemporary Youth Literature

Abstract

In my Master Thesis I discuss contemporary youth problem literary works which deal with different forms of violence. My analysis includes three Slovenian and three foreign literary works which address young readers as well as adults. One of the main research questions is how different forms of violence are presented in contemporary youth literature. In my thesis I deal with the question how the literary characters experience violence, how they solve their problems and which ethical questions they encounter. The authors of the analysed literary works expose the problems and consequences of violent acts at the conceptual level and with their narrative express their criticism of the society and the institutions in which violence occurs. Most of the stories are narrated in the first person by the main teenage protagonist. The narrative focuses on adolescent’s coping with the problems and finding the solutions. Some of the characters deal with their problems successfully, the others fail. By some of them the solution is unclear. Most of the endings of the stories do not offer clear-cut answers, encouraging readers to further reflection. The analysed literary works require critical literary reading and empathy with the characters while dealing with their ethical questions.
