From Masculine To Feminine Roles In The Hunger Games Trilogy
الكاتب : البشير ياقوت . عمارة نعيمي .
الملخص
This paper explores the representation of gender performativity in the young adult dystopian literature through the examination of Suzanne Collin’s trilogy of the Hunger Games, Catching Fire and Mockingjay novels with a focus on the protagonist Katniss Everdeen. This study aims at investigating the evolution of Katniss’s gender role over the course of the storyline employing Judith Butler’s basic aspects of Gender Performativity theory. It tends to depict the construction of gender identity of the young adult female protagonist who fought for liberation against totalitarian government and analyse particular gender identities in which Katniss is supposed to perform. This thesis shows how Katniss gender performance transits from one role to another according to the state of acts. The trilogy of the Hunger Games helps, through this study, to promote women’s empowerment and gender equality as well as to explain how gender performativity can play an important role in today’s society.
