    Hugvísindasvið Ekta íslenskt pönk? Myndun íslenskrar pönkmenningar Ritgerð til MA-prófs í sagnfræði Unnur María Bergsveinsdóttir Júní 2014 Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Sagnfræði Ekta íslenskt pönk? Myndun íslenskrar pönkmenningar Ritgerð til MA-prófs í sagnfræði Unnur María Bergsveinsdóttir Kt.: 190478-3789 Leiðbeinendur: Guðmundur Jónsson Árni Daníel Júlíusson Júní 2014 2 Ágrip Í rannsókninni er fjallað um íslenska frumpönkið sem menningarkima.Rannsóknin beinist að tímabili sem nær frá árinu 1976, þegar er fyrst er farið að fjalla um pönk í íslenskum fjölmiðlum, fram á vorið 1982. Munnlegra heimilda í formi viðtala var sérstaklega aflað til þess að ná að lýsa reynslu og viðhorfum þeirra sem þátt tóku í menningarkimanum á sem sanngjarnastan hátt. Fjallað er um þá ímyndasköpun sem fram fór í fjölmiðlum áður en eiginleg pönkmenning myndaðist hér á landi og þær fyrirfram mótuðu hugmyndir sem fyrstu pönkararnir mættu. Pönkið var alllengi eitthvað Íslendingar þekktu flestir aðeins af afspurn. Þetta gerði fjölmiðlum kleyft að fjalla um fyrirbærið eftir eigin geðþótta. Eftir því sem á leið og menningarkiminn hóf að kvikna hérlendis vék einhliða fréttaflutningur hinsvegar fyrir raunsærri umfjöllun. Því er lýst hvernig einstaklingar fengu áhuga á pönktónlist og hvernig þeir fóru að því að verða sér úti um pönktónlist og önnur aðföng. Myndun tónlistarvettvangs er lýst en erfiðleikar hvað varðar aðföng og aðstöðuleysi hvað tónlistarflutning varðar virðist hafa verið það sem stóð menningarkimanum lengi vel fyrir þrifum. Auk þeirra praktísku erfiðleika sem fylgdu því að komast á svið kvörtuðu þau sem reyndu að flytja pönk og aðra framsækna tónlist til að byrja með oft undan því að áheyrendur kynnu ekki að meta tónlist sem þeir þekktu ekki og kunni ekki að dansa við.

Í bókinni fjallar Bertens um pólitískar greiningar á bókmenntum sem mjög áttu upp á pallborðið í bókmenntafræðum á 8. og 9. áratugnum. Tilgreinir hann þrjár meginstefnur, marxisma, femínisma og kenningar er snúa að kynþáttum. Einnig tilgreinir hann aðrar kenningar, eins og þær sem snúa að kynferðis fólks, er sóttu á í lok aldarinnar. Í ritgerðinni er beitt þeim aðferðum sem Bertens lýsir við greiningu á hugarheimi pönksins. Pönkið í Bretlandi, Bandaríkjunum og ekki síst á Íslandi er skoðað út frá hverri kenningunni fyrir sig. Pönkararnir skiptust í tvennt hvað stjórnmálaskoðanir varðar, ekki síst í Bretlandi og á Íslandi. Sumir vildu heyja gamaldags stéttabaráttu, meðan aðrir töldu sig anarkista og hafna yfir slík átök. Í öllum þrem löndunum leiddi pönkið til þess að konur endurskilgreindu stöðu sína og sóttu æ meir inn á hefðbundin athafnasvæði karla. Lengst gekk þetta líklega með „riot grrl“ hreyfingunni í Bandaríkjunum á 10. áratugnum, sem var beint afsprengi pönksins. Sumar konur kenndu sig meðvitað við femínisma, en aðrar snéru hlutunum á haus með hegðun sinni þó þær teldu sig ópólitískar. Einnig er stiklað á stóru í rokksögunni fram að pönkinu og sýnt fram á hvernig afstaða fólks til ekki bara kyns heldur kynferðis breyttist.
