Central-European Masculinities in a Comparative Perspective

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The theme of our conference is to recognize, how this specific tension between cultural concepts and state institutions has resonated in our national cultures, how it has created stories, initiated practices, and chiseled narratives of dominant fictions of masculinity. Contemporary theories of masculinity allow us to shift the emphasis from ‘being’ to ‘becoming’ and reveal the complexity and processuality as well as an inherent ‘incompletness’ of masculinity/-ies. It allows us to define an area of inquiry, which is to trace a sense of definitional uncertainty about what ‘masculinity’ is in modernity, what are its limitations, which cultural articulations of it are most/least desirable and why. Relating this observation to the historical position of the Mitteleuropa countries, we would like to trace literary and artistic struggles with the masculine form of modernity in the period of i) the development of the capitalist economy in the second half of the 19th century, ii) the interwar period, iii) the era of state socialism, iv) post-transformation (post)modernity.
