  • Thesises What Has Been Learned Through the Entire Process in Relation to the Research Questions
    An exegesis submitted in conjunction with a novel for fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of: Doctor of Philosophy in Communication University of Canberra Mothers Empowering Daughters: Narrative strategies that reverse Freudian narrative plots of the mother-daughter relationship in young adult fiction (an exegesis) Scar (a novel) Sandy Bigna December 2014 i Abstract My study takes the form of an exegesis and young adult novel, and aims to unearth narrative strategies of telling story about mothers and daughters that reverse Freudian-based narrative plots of the mother-daughter relationship. I also seek to determine how authors of young adult fiction go about exploring the adolescent daughter-mother relationship, while still retaining appeal to their target audience. There is an expressed concern about the limited ways in which mothers and daughters are portrayed in young adult fiction. Researchers in the field of young adult literature have argued that the influence of patriarchal discourse in regard to the mother-adolescent daughter relationship impedes the representation of positive and empowering mother-daughter relationships in young adult fiction. In order to address these concerns, a framework of questions to be applied to the reading of the mother-daughter relationship in the selected sample of young adult novels novels was constructed from the research literature and feminist narrative theory. This framework of questions - along with Carol Gilligan’s ‘Listening Guide’ - was an extremely useful method of extracting relevant details about the mother-daughter relationships in the novels. Key themes emerged from the application of the framework of questions and the Listening Guide to the readings of the novels.
