Abstract
This MA paper sets out to analyse ways in which well-known female heroines are represented in the selection of fairy tales rewritten by three contemporary authors. The stories and poems from Angel Carter’s The Bloody Chamber and Other Stories (1979) and Burning Your Boats: The Collected Short Stories (1995), Emma Donoghue’s Kissing the Witch: Old Tales in New Skins (1997), and Carol Ann Duffy’s Faery Tales (2014) and The World's Wife (1999) are under discussion in the paper. The paper argues that the selected authors openly defy the traditional plot and conventional representations of protagonists, especially the female ones. By offering a reimagined narrative and subverting gender stereotypes so typical for fairy tales, they show how the stories originally created by male writers could be approached from the female point of view.
Abstract (croatian)
Cilj ovog diplomskog rada je analizirati načine na koje su poznate junakinje prezentirane u bajkama koje su preradile tri suvremene autorice. Analizirat će se priče i pjesme iz The Bloody Chamber and Other Stories (1979) i Burning Your Boats: The Collected Short Stories (1995) od Angele Carter, Kissing the Witch: Old Tales in New Skins (1997) od Emme Donoghue te Faery Tales (2014) i The World's Wife (1999) od Carol Ann Duffy. U radu je istaknuto da odabrane autorice otvoreno prkose tradicionalnom zapletu i konvencionalnim prikazima protagonista, osobito ženskih likova. Time što su ispričale novu priču i oborile rodne stereotipe, tako tipične za bajke, pokazale su kako se pričama, koje su izvorno napisali muški pisci, može pristupiti sa ženskog stajališta.
