Abstract

Tema ovog diplomskog rada prikaz je razvoja i oblikovanja ženskog identiteta protagonistice Mirjane Grgić u romanu Kamen na cesti Marije Jurić Zagorke. U prvih nekoliko poglavlja rada nešto je više rečeno o spisateljici Mariji Jurić Zagorki, o njezinom životu, književnom opusu, ali i o samom romanu. Središnji dio rada podijeljen je na „neprijatelje“ i „prijatelje“ koji su utjecali na Mirjanu i na taj način odmagali, odnosno pomagali razvoju njezinog identiteta. Od Mirjaninih „neprijatelja“ valja istaknuti njezinu biološku obitelj, posebice majku, Mirjaninog supruga Mađara, njezino žensko tijelo i patrijarhalno društvo u kojem je Mirjana živjela. Svaki od ovih „neprijatelja“ na svoj je način negativno utjecao na Mirjanino jastvo, ali unatoč njima, Mirjana se trudi ostvariti svoje snove, iako vrlo teško. Na drugoj strani nalaze se Mirjanini „prijatelji“, odnosno škola, ali i časna sestra Bernarda, prijatelji poput Ružice i Milana, zamjenska obitelj (Marta, špan Tenšek), najbolji prijatelj dnevnik i rad. Svaki od ovih „prijatelja“ pozitivno je djelovao na samu Mirjanu i na neki način pokušavao ju oblikovati u onu osobu kakva je ona htjela biti. Nakon ovakvog kontrasta u središnjem dijelu, prikazan je odnos privatne i javne sfere u kojoj je Mirjana odrastala. Nadalje, prikazan je i Mirjanin društveni angažman koji detaljnije analizira njezin nacionalni identitet i borbu za jednaka prava žena. Na samom kraju rada donosi se zaključak koji ističe najvažnije elemente i prepreke pri oblikovanju ženskog identiteta u romanu i načine na koji se oni nadilaze.

Abstract (english)

The focus of this thesis is the development and formation of Mirjana Grigić's female identity, the protagonist in the novel Kamen na cesti by Marija Jurić Zagorka. The first few chapters gather information about the author Marija Jurić Zagorka, her life, literary work, and the novel itself. The main part of the thesis is divided into “foes” and “friends” who influence the development of Mirjana's identity. The “foes” include her biological family, especially her mother, Mirjana's Hungarian husband, her female body, and the patriarchal society in which she lives. Each of these foes negatively influences Mirjana's self, but despite of that, she works hard to achieve her goals. On the other hand, Mirjana's “friends” include her school, nun Bernarda, Ružica and Milan, her substitute family (Marta, špan Tenšek), work and her best friend, a diary. Each of these “friends” has positively influenced Mirjana and, in a way, helped shape her into the person she wants to be. After tackling such contrast in the main part, the thesis sheds light on the relationship between private and public sphere in which Mirjana grew up. Furthermore, Mirjana's social engagement is addressed in relation to her national identity and fight for female rights. The conclusion of the thesis highlights the main elements and obstacles in the development of female identity and the ways in which they are overcome.
