Mädchenfiguren Im Werk Von Tamora Pierce  Begegnung Mit / Handeln Im Auftrag Von Übernatürlichen Wesen, Z Studientagung Aufbaukurs 2013–2014 soziale Klassen (Rechte von Dienstboten, Unterschicht, Sklaverei) Wien, 04.–06.09.2014 Eingriffe in die Natur/Naturgewalten, Umgang mit der Umwelt Referentin: Cordula Borawski Rolle von und Umgang mit Tieren (tierische u./od. magische Helfer) Thema: Mädchenfiguren im Werk von Tamora Pierce Begegnung mit / Handeln im Auftrag von übernatürlichen Wesen, z. B. Göttern „Girls kicking butt, mainly“ – Mädchenfiguren im Werk von Tamora Pierce Einordnung: geschlossene Eigenwelten – Welt von Tortall, Welt von Emelan – mit mittelalterlichem bis frühneuzeitlichem Charakter mythisch-magische Welten mit eigener Geschichte, Geografie und Mythologie; es gibt Magie, Götter, Fabelwesen, Elementargeister und Dämonen → typische Elemente der high fantasy Es bestehen Wechselwirkungen zwischen den Taten der Menschen und den Kämpfen der Götter Die übernatürlichen Elemente gehören als integrierter Bestandteil zu der Welt; somit bewegen sich die Texte in einem eindimensionalen Handlungskreis nach M. Nikolajeva: Modell 1, geschlossene sekundäre Welt Ausgangspunkt: Amazonenmotiv: Tamora Pierce' Motivation zu schreiben stammte daher, dass es der phantas- Tolkiens Éowyn war Vorbild für T. Pierce; Éowyn entspricht dem tischen Literatur an starken weiblichen Helden mangelte. literarischen Typus der Amazone; literarische Vorbilder für Éowyn Was für Mädchenfiguren hat sie selbst geschaffen? z. B. Brünhild (Nibelungenlied), Camilla (Eneasroman von Heinrich Welche Entwicklungsmöglichkeit und Handlungsspielraum haben sie? von Veldeke) charakteristisch ist das Motiv der Transgression der vorgegebenen Ordnung, oftmals in Verbindung mit dem Verkleidungsmotiv Themen phantastischer Literatur in ihren Büchern: ermöglicht eine zeitweise Erweiterung des weiblichen Handlungs- Genderdiskurs, soziale Rollen von Frauen und Männern, Bruch mit spielraums (z. B. kämpfen, große Taten vollbringen) Konventionen Am Ende aber stets die Rückkehr in die traditionellen Frauenrollen. Magie: Arten, Verwendung, Gefahren/Kontrolle, moralische Grenzen Überspitzt formuliert: Das Mädchen muss am Ende entweder heiraten und Verantwortung oder sterben (vgl. bspw. Shakespeares Mädchenfiguren in den Krieg/Bürgerkrieg: Auseinandersetzung mit Töten und Sterben, Folgen Komödien vs. Tragödien) für die Zivilbevölkerung (Hunger, Krankheit, Gewalt) Begegnung und Umgang mit Fremden (anderen Völkern, Ethnien, Wesen), kulturelle Konflikte Das fremde/besondere Kind: wicklung der Heldinnen wiederum findet ihre Entsprechung im Eine vergleichbare Einschränkung erfahren kindliche Erlöserfiguren in der Fortschritt der fiktiven Welt (z. B. soziale Reformen). phantastischen KJL: Mit Lösung von den klassischen narrativen Mustern lockert sich das Erzählmuster der Heldenreise → verstärkte Aventiure-Struktur, in der Verweigerung als zentrales Motiv in Klassikern der KJL, verbunden sich einzelne Bewährungsproben aneinanderreihen und nur durch mit einem Verlusterlebnis der kindlichen Figur (vgl. Heidi Lexe): wenige übergeordnete Handlungsstränge verknüpft sind – z. B. wird Indem sie sich der erwachsenen Welt verweigert, bleibt ihr eine die Gegenspielerfigur von einem persönlichen Feind zu einem fremden Weiterentwicklung versagt oder sie erleidet den Verlust der Trennung Antagonisten oder einer unpersönlichen Bedrohung von der kindlichen Gegenwelt. → Dieses Verlusterlebnis ist vergleichbar dem Aufgeben der Unabhängigkeit von Mädchenfiguren in Hosenrollen mit Ablegen der Verkleidung. Bruch mit Konventionen: An entscheidenden Stellen bricht T. Pierce von Anfang an mit den literarischen Vorbildern: Typische Motivkonstellationen im Werk von T. Pierce, Beispiele: Die Mädchen dürfen sexuell aktiv sein Sie dürfen töten Elternferne: Alannas Vater interessiert sich nur für seine Studien; → Sie dürfen also in jeder Hinsicht ihre Unschuld verlieren. Der Verlust der Dhanas Mutter ist tot (bzw. in die göttl. Welt entrückt), ihr Vater Unschuld wiederum bedeutet das Übernehmen von Verantwortung. Somit wird unbekannt (bzw. ein Gott); Aly wird von Piraten entführt; die Emelan- ein Entwicklungs- und Lernprozess der Heldin möglich, der bisherigen Kinder sind alle entweder Waise, Halbwaise oder Ausgestoßene klassischen Mädchenfiguren verwehrt war. Unbekannte Herkunft: Dhana, s. o.; Alys Herkunft ist zwar ihr selbst und den LeserInnen bekannt, aber nicht den Figuren, mit denen sie agiert Fazit: Reisemotiv: Alanna geht auf die typische Heldenfahrt zum Dach der Lösung von klassischen Erzählmustern und Charaktertypen führt zu Welt und erringt das Juwel der Macht; Dhana reist ins Reich der stärkerer Realitätsnähe; unabhängig von ihren besonderen, oft Götter; Aly wird auf die Kupferinseln verschleppt magischen Talenten sind T. Pierce' Heldinnen „ganz normale“ Nähe zu Tieren: Jede Heldin von Tamora Pierce hat mindestens einen Mädchen, die sich behaupten und ihren Weg finden müssen tierischen Begleiter! Alanna z. B. den magischen Kater Immertreu → Entwicklung von starren Rollenmustern weg hin zu differen- (eigtl. ein Sternbild); derselbe Kater begleitet als Pounce 200 Jahre zierteren Charakteren früher auch Beka; Dhana beherrscht die Gabe der Tiersprache und → höheres Identifizierungspotenzial für die LeserInnen und damit eine Verwandlung Auseinandersetzung mit realen Themen und Problemen von Mädchen Andererseits Abschwächung der übergreifenden psychologischen Erzählmuster: Entwicklungsschritte der Heldenreise → Abschwächung/Verlust der Die Erzählmuster folgen Heldenreise und Aventiure-Struktur.

CULTURES AND COLONIZATION IN TAMORA PIERCE’S YOUNG ADULT NOVELS by JESSICA DUBE Under the Direction of Caren Town ABSTRACT The content represented in young adult literature can be a shaping force for adolescents as they begin to understand more about themselves and the world around them. Fantasy fiction is especially powerful, as it allows readers to consider issues outside of their own experiences and learn through the characters of a fictional world. This thesis focuses specifically on the works of Tamora Pierce, and the ways in which she represents sociopolitical issues in her fictional world of Tortall. I analyze the ways in which Pierce’s works fulfill Landt’s standards of good multicultural literature, and how the representation she presents can educate readers in the real world.

But i found this cute set instead--- and ordered it! i was pleasantly surprised to find it in great condition, brand new, and the box is so beautiful, and the covers are gorgeous! now that it has new covers, i hope this series draws in more fans to create a bigger fandom!! ahah- i feel so alone in it.
