Abstract

U diplomskom će se radu analizirati dva romana Tomislava Zagode, Balada o Buginim gaćicama (2004.) i Križni put Gustava S. (2016.). Rad će se temeljiti na književnoteorijskim i književnopovijesnim spoznajama o dječjoj književnosti te na radikalnom pristupu književnosti koji nastoji svojim temama i pristupima pridonijeti estetičkoj i društvenoj transformaciji književnosti za djecu i mlade. U fokusu istraživanja bit će tema i prikaz seksualnosti, što će se analizirati na razini motiva, fabule, karakterizacije likova te na stilskoj razini. S obzirom na to da je tema seksualnosti tradicionalno bila tabu donedavno, u prvome dijelu rada dat će se povijest razvoja tabu tema u europskoj i američkoj književnosti za djecu i mlade te ponuditi objašnjenja za takav status teme seksualnosti, kao i prikazati razvoj te teme u hrvatskoj književnosti za djecu i mlade. Također će se problematizirati distinkcija književnosti za djecu i književnosti za mlade te vidjeti ima li razlike u pristupu toj temi i artikulaciji fenomena seksualnosti u romanima za djecu i u romanima za mlade u navedenim predlošcima. Pri tome će osobito biti značajno promotriti odnos između implicitnog autora i implicitnog čitatelja, kao i odnose moći koji neizostavno proizlaze iz odnosa odraslog kao autora i pretpostavljenog čitatelja, s obzirom na dob, spol i druge međusobne razlike.

Abstract (english)

The thesis will analyze two novels by Tomislav Zagoda, Balada o Buginim gaćicama
(2004) and Križni put Gustava S. (2016). The thesis will be based on literary-theoretical and
literary-historical knowledge about children's literature and on a radical approach to literature that
seeks to contribute to the aesthetic and social transformation of literature for children and young
adults with its themes and approaches. The focus of the research will be sexuality which will be
analyzed at the level of motives, plot, characters and at the stylistic level. Given that the topic of
sexuality has traditionally been taboo until recently, the first part of the thesis will provide a history
of the development of taboo topics in European and American literature for children and young
adults and offer explanations for such status of sexuality, as well as the development of this topic
in Croatian literature for children and young adults. The distinction between children's literature
and young adults literature will also be discussed and it will be seen whether there are differences
in the approach to this topic and the articulation of the phenomenon of sexuality in children's
novels and in young adults novels in the above templates. It will be also important to consider the
relationship between the implicit author and the implicit reader, as well as the power relations that
inevitably arise from the relationship between the adult as author and the presumed reader, with
regard of age, gender and other differences.
