  • Buffy the Vampire Slayer: a Feminist Reading1
    Religious imagery and its political significance in Buffy the Vampire Slayer: a feminist reading1 For Molly and Emily Eve am I, great Adam’s wife, I killed Jesus long ago . Irish lament Theoretically there would be no such thing as woman. She would not exist. Luce Irigaray, Speculum of the Other Woman Invitation ‘As a woman, I have no country. As a woman I want no country. As a woman my country is the whole world’.2 The famous declaration is Virginia Woolf’s, championing in Three Guineas, women’s rights both to education and entry into the professions, in a seminal feminist manifesto, important aspects of which, I shall suggest, are reflected in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. In this essay, I should like both to celebrate and to critique the Buffy series, by placing it in the larger contexts of Western feminist spirituality and political thought. Especially, I intend to argue that Buffy represents a particular combination of knowledge and power which places her outside the mainstream of super-heroes and leads to particular ideas of learning, of spirituality, and of citizenship. These ideas place Buffy and the Scoobies outside the dominant discourses of Western patriarchy and closer to Virginia Woolf’s idea of a group of women, which: would have no honorary treasurer, for it would need no funds. It would have no office, no committee, no secretary; it would call no meetings; it would hold no conferences. If name it must have, it could be called the Outsiders’ Society.3 . Over the years, the feminist project has been concerned to slay its own vampires, in the form of ideas that, hundreds of years old, have prowled and fed on society’s marginalised communities, especially women.

    Carolyn Cocca "First Word 'Jail,' Second Word 'Bait'": Adolescent Sexuality, Feminist Theories, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer Wesley: "And you teach psychology?" Cordelia: "I take psychology." Giles: "She's a student." Cordelia, "It's about time we got some fresh blood around here." Wesley: "Fresh . yes . [Cordelia exits.] My, she's cheeky, isn't she?" Faith: "Uh, first word 'jail,' second word 'bait.'" "Consequences" (3015) Buffy: "There's Oz over there. What are we thinking, sparkage?" Willow: "He's nice. I like his hands." Buffy: "Mm. Fixation on insignificant details is a definite crush sign." Willow: "Oh, I don't know, though. He is a senior." Buffy: "You think he's too old 'cause he's a senior? Please, my boyfriend had a bicentennial." Willow: "That's true." "Surprise" (2013) I. Introduction [1] A number of articles have debated whether or not Buffy Summers is a feminist heroine (e.g., Siemann, Pender, Daugherty, Playdon), and have praised the show for its realistic portrayal of the problems of growing up and sexually maturing (e.g., Vint, Wilcox, Moss, Zacharek, Daugherty. See also Noxon and Whedon commentaries on Season 2 DVD, Petrie on Season 3 DVD, and Espenson on Season 4 DVD). None, however, has engaged with the ways in which seemingly conflicting feminist theories about teen sexuality can all be at play simultaneously in the series. * [2] In the episodes before the main characters, particularly Buffy, turn 18 (i.e., 3012 "Helpless"), any sexual activity they engage in is theoretically illegal--it is statutory rape. Statutory rape laws differ across the states: each sets an age of consent, generally 16 or 18, and prosecutes sexual intercourse with an unmarried person under that age if one of the parties is a certain number of years older than the other.

  • Gender and Narrative Play in Young Adult Retellings Of
    REIMAGINING GENDER IN A TALE AS OLD AS TIME: GENDER AND NARRATIVE PLAY IN YOUNG ADULT RETELLINGS OF “BEAUTY AND THE BEAST” Janieke Koning Supervisor: Dr. Roselinde Supheert Second Assessor: Prof. Dr. Ann Rigney rMA Comparative Literary Studies Utrecht University, Utrecht, The Netherlands August 2017 i ABSTRACT This thesis contributes to scholarship on retellings of the traditional literary fairy tales of “Beauty and the Beast”, written by Madame de Villeneuve and Madame de Beaumont in the eighteenth century. I explore how socializing metanarratives of gender are re-conceptualized through narrative play in young adult retellings influenced by late-twentieth and early twenty- first century women’s movements. Authors create a tension between existing metanarratives of gender, which are often antithetical to modern world views, such as the beauty myth, and the alternatives they offer in their retellings. They do this by creating critical distance through the invocation of similarity and difference. Consequently, sets of metanarratives are fighting for the implicit, invisible, socially dominant position in society. This thesis discusses retellings by Robin McKinley, Alex Flinn, and the Walt Disney Company. They create a dialogue between traditional metanarratives, their retellings, and their intended adolescent audience. Their use of narrative techniques and strategies to alter traditional narrative patterns, motifs, characters, and plot lines determines whether these retellings disrupt or maintain traditional patriarchal metanarratives of gender, including those of feminine beauty, conduct, agency, and male-female relationships. I focus on the complexity with which retellings re-envision the traditional tales to alter existing metanarratives and how they use narrative strategies to do this.
