Abstract
This diploma paper sets out to discuss some of the key issues pertaining to the second wave of feminism portrayed in Hotel du Lac (1984) by Anita Brookner, White Teeth (2000) by Zadie Smith, Down by the River (1997) by Edna O’Brien, and Union Street (1982) by Pat Barker. The issues of female domesticity, financial (in)dependence, and reproductive rights in relation to class and race are read and analysed in the light of feminist theory. Focusing on female protagonists and their struggles in the selected novels, my analysis suggests that the second wave of feminism was not as ground-breaking and impactful as it often appeared to be in public discourse.
Abstract (croatian)
Ovaj diplomski rad raspravlja ključne probleme koji se odnose na drugi val feminizma te su ujedno prikazani u romanima Hotel du Lac (1984) Anite Brookner, White Teeth (2000) Zadie Smith, Down by the River (1997) Edne O’Brien i Union Street (1982) Pat Barker. Rad analizira problematičnu vezu žena i domaćinstva, financijsku (ne)ovisnost i reproduktivna prava – kao i njihovu povezanost s rasom i klasom, sve u svjetlu feminističke teorije. Uz fokus na ženske protagonistice i njihove poteškoće u odabranim romanima, moja analiza sugerira da drugi val feminizma, za mnoge žene, nije bio toliko uspješan i revolucionaran.
