Předběžná náplň práce

Tato práce zkoumá ruské bulvární reprezentace šahídek v období 2000-2010 a snaží se
zjistit, proč ženské politické násilí přitahuje tolik mediální pozornosti a proč je takové
jednání vždy spojeno s předpokládanou schopností ženy dávat život. Tím, že ruší ústřední
normy genderu a potvrzování života, představuje sebevražedná atentátnice zavrženíhodnou
postavu, kterou je třeba vymítit, aby byl zajištěn stát. Bulvární reprezentace se pokoušejí
tento čin znovu začlenit do zavedeného symbolického řádu tím, že se opírají o hegemonní
narativy genderového výkonu. Význam však nelze nikdy zcela uzavřít, pouze zastřít jeho
podmíněnost. Tato práce zkoumá, jak reprezentace destabilizujícího aktu ženského
politického násilí Další zkoumání napětí v hegemonických diskursech odhaluje jejich
kontingenci a otevírá prostor pro jejich zpochybnění a reartikulaci.

Předběžná náplň práce v anglickém jazyce

This thesis examines Russian tabloid representations of shakhidki in the period 2000-2010,
seeking to examine why female political violence attracts so much media attention, and
why such action is always connected to a woman’s assumed life-giving capacity. In
abrogating central norms of gender and life-affirmation, the female suicide bomber
represents an abject figure who must be exorcised in order to secure the state. Tabloid
representations attempt to reintegrate the act into the established symbolic order by
drawing on hegemonic narratives of gender performance. However, meaning can never be
fully closed, only its contingency obscured. This thesis examines how representations of
the destabilising act of female political violence Further examination of the tensions in
hegemonic discourses exposes their contingency and opens space for their contestation and
rearticulation.
