The Representation of Male Character in Judith Drake’s An Essay in Defence of the Female Sex (1696): An Educational Proposal
Author: Nausica Vicens Salomon
Degree: English Studies
Abstract: This TFG is focused on contends that the intellectual capacity of women is equal to that of men. Through her observations on male's character, Drake offers a full psychological portrait of men through ridiculous and satirical figures. The way she depicts the “follies” of male behaviour allows her to corroborate the faults of the opposite sex and, hence, describe her own proposal for a solution. On the other hand, she believes that a re-education of men is needed in order to change the balance of power, especially through a positive female influence.

El VIH des d’una perspectiva de gènere. Vivències de dones amb VIH respecte l’atenció sanitària rebuda
Author: Júlia Sebastià Martínez
Degree: Nursing
Abstract: The minor role of women with HIV, both in scientific research and in advertising campaigns, as well as the role of men in HIV as the main patient of the disease and the lack of medical protocols that include both genders —the female and the male— leads us to question the efficacy of the healthcare services provided to these women. In order to interpret the experiences of women with HIV regarding the care provided by health personnel in the hospital field and primary care centres in Barcelona, it is proposed to carry out a qualitative hermeneutical phenomenological study.

Mujer minera: resistir en el Cerro Rico de Potosí
Author: Maria Bros Carreras
Degree: Journalism
Abstract: Mujer minera: resistir en el Cerro Rico de Potosí (Miner women: to resist in Cerro Rico de Potosí) is the struggle of the women miners of Cerro Rico de Potosí (Bolivia) against the exploitation to which they are subjected every day as a result of the system that surrounds them. Through three of the most representative female figures in the Bolivian mining sector, the palliris, the guards and the miners’ widows, the documentary shows the testimony of the female workers and brings to light the flagrant violation of human and labour rights they suffer. A violation that is mainly exercised by the mining cooperatives and their partners given the indifference of a Bolivian state that ignores what is happening in Cerro Rico de Potosí.

Perspectiva de gènere en les guies docents del grau de biologia de la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona
Author: Laura Puig Martínez

Abstract: Teaching and knowledge have historically been based on androcentric science, without taking into account the vision and interests of women. The gender perspective in the educational system is key to overcoming false objectivism and traditional science, which is incomplete and biased. This paper aims to analyse whether the gender perspective prevails in the Biology Degree and, at the same time, to give visibility to the importance of this perspective in science.

Joves i prostitució: el paper de la masculinitat en el sexe de pagament
Author: Laura Ruiz Sarrión
Degree: Criminology
Abstract: In recent years there has been an increase in the consumption of commercial sex among young men, who have been raised in a context of sexual liberation and pursuit of gender equality. On this basis, the present investigation intends to analyse the relationship between the consumption of heterosexual prostitution amongst young people and the social conception of masculinity, the search of which has been understood as a motivation to pay for sex. Thus, after determining the legal framework and the scale of the phenomenon in Spain, we have deepened in the concept of hegemonic masculinity and we have exposed different studies regarding men who paid for sex, as well as their motivations.

La feminización del trabajo a tiempo parcial. Instrumento de discriminación indirecta por razón de sexo
Author: Ainoa Roa Ameigidez

Abstract: This work deals with the reality of part-time work for women workers within a gender perspective framework. This recruitment model has become an instrument that discriminates the female sector based on its most characteristic element: working time. It is this aspect that has turned part-time hiring into a “feminine ghetto”, in words of labour union organisations. Throughout the work the reasons why this situation is a reality are raised.

La cura com a bé comú: L’experiència de La Glacera, un grup de criança compartida
Author: Marta Rosell Codina
Degree: Social and Cultural Anthropology
Abstract: This paper analyses the experience of a shared parenting group in Barcelona. These frames of reference represent a communal alternative to the system of social organisation of care, hegemonically based on the sexual division of labour and underpinned by the capital model of unequal social production and reproduction. Based on several ethnographic fieldwork forays between 2017 and 2019, it is examined how this collective model of parenting moves towards the democratisation of care, theorised by feminist economics, and how it is moulded within social movements defending the urban commons.

Abstract: Monserrat Abelló burst onto the Catalan literary scene in the early 1960s when she published Vida diària. It was after her third book, El blat del temps, that Abelló published more continuously, always combining translation with poetry. Regarding translation, her feminist work is unquestionable. Certainly, her translations of the work of Sylvia Plath, Adrienne Rich and Anne Sexton were pioneering and made it possible to read confessional poetry in Catalan. The present paper is a study of the Abellonian corpus of poetry.

Com construir una dona tràgica: mort i maternitat a la tradició teatral occidental
Author: Laura Rubio Garriga
Degree: English and Spanish
Abstract: The aim of this paper is to analyse the representation of female characters in the western dramatic canon, and to do so along two axes: motherhood and death. On the one hand, motherhood as a defining characteristic of the role of women in society, as a confirming fact of womanhood. On the other, death, as the only way out in tradition for those women who subvert or attempt to subvert the canonical type of femininity. The existence of female characters who create referents, who make it possible in the imaginary to dissent from what is expected of them, cannot be allowed to exist.

La violencia contra las mujeres en la Grecia clásica
Author: Marina Prior Pulido
Degree: History
Abstract: From the academic world, studies on the period traditionally known as Classical Greece (5th and 4th centuries BC) have been abundant; the phenomenon of Athenian democracy is one of the events that mark this era and has generated the construction, by historiography, of an ideal around these centuries and, specifically, around the history of the polis of Athens. With all this and the tendencies of traditional historiography to exclude women from historical studies, there are few cases in which violence against women is a central theme of historical analysis.

The fact that this has remained unchanged up to the present day does not mean we should continue to defend it. The dissertation focuses specifically on women in Italian neorealist cinema, both in relation to the place they occupied within the film industry, and the vision of them on the screen. It is as well examined how it affected society and, above all, how it affected the advance or the retreat of the mentality of the time.

A new feminist strategy can be noted: to publish oneself partially or totally naked in order to empower oneself. But, based on the fact that they are the same tools patriarchy uses to objectify female bodies, is this possible?

Abstract: We live in a sexist society, where we still associate “doctor” with men and “nurse” with women, and where we still find it difficult to think that women constitute half the population. However, in veterinary medicine this is no longer the case. Most vets nowadays are women. How have we come to transform a profession completely dominated by men to one where finding a woman it is now the standard? How does being a part of such demanding profession affect our day-to-day lives?

Abstract: Gender-based violence is a type of violence directed at women by the fact of being so. It has been observed that battered women use the health resources more often, and that is why health professionals must play a key role in the early detection of violence. There are findings about physical injuries, behaviors during the interview or ways of using health resources, among many others. However, there are still several limitations to ask about the abuse to the women.

El sexisme del professorat a les aules de primària. El llenguatge, la metodologia i la percepció
Author: Mariona Campmajó i Soldán
Studies: Primary Education
Abstract: Starting with a social context in which the feminist movement is especially present and creates a lot of controversy, my interest to know the role of education arises. Even though there is some progress regarding laws, centre projects and educational plans, the day to day in classrooms has to be very different if society continues to refuse change. What are we doing wrong so that the fact of being a man or a woman doesn’t imply any privileges or convictions?

La violència sexual en conflictes armats. Programa formatiu en l'àmbit militar espanyol
Author: Geòrgia Carrasquilla Lladó
Studies: Criminology
Abstract: This essay is a study of sexual violence in armed conflicts. The victims are men and women, and their perpetrators varied, although mostly are members of the military systems. Different factors explain this serious and invisibilised phenomenon, the majority come from a patriarchal global ideology, which is even more intense inside the military institution, and rewards masculinity —perceived as strength and power— and punishes femininity —perceived as weakness and submission—. This essay proposes a training program of specific application to the Spanish Armed Forces with the aim of preventing sexual violence. Finally, it also proposes a model of victimisation surveys as a tool to compile data and evaluate the program.

Learned Helplessness: Influence of Patriarchal Violence in Edna O’Brien’s The Country Girls Trilogy
Author: Cristina Montes Venegas
Studies: English Studies
Abstract: The Country Girls Trilogy (1986) narrates Caithleen's tragic life story and its consequences. I argue that the violence caused in Caithleen's childhood conditions her adulthood. Parting from Caithleen's parental abuse and her mother's death, I explore their influence in Caithleen alongside the policies, economy and religiosity of Ireland. I defend that Caithleen's emotional development gets interrupted due to the abuse and shapes her attachment and romantic escapism. I also examine how her mother's death consolidates her attachment and romantic delusion.

El sexo del cerebro en disputa: críticas al neurosexismo bajo una perspectiva neurofeminista
Author: Desirée Serrano Buiza

Abstract: This dissertation is meant to set out one of the central discussions on current neuroscience: if brain has sex. Based on the solid argument that a great part of data and scientific studies given about sexual dimorphism of the brain are biased at the same time that they are strongly rooted to the common imaginary, I will show how this “bad science”, named neurosexism, supports and nourishes the status quo of one of the main social inequalities: the patriarchy.

Summary: When we think about the ancient shows in Rome we came up with fighting gladiators, strong men who fought to entertaint the public. However, were there only men among the people battling at the amphitheatres' arenas? There is little talk on the participation of female gladiators. From classical authors we can get an idea about these women but it is not enough information to establish that they really existed. By analysing a series of found remains, such as inscriptions, reliefs or dowries found in many tombs, it is possible to confirm the existence of these women.

In this project, we will estimate a salary function of a specific population sample while checking if there is any kind of gender-based discrimination.

Closure as Revelation: Reflecting upon Lady Audley's Guilt in Mary E. Braddon's Lady Audley's Secret
Author: Laura Bellosta Baeza
Degree: English and French Studies
Summary: Mary Braddon's "Lady Audley's Secret" (1862) was an immediate success and a source of controversy in Victorian society, because it defied gender roles and social standards via a female character who is morally ambiguous and groundbreaking. This project proves that the unexpected and apparently happy ending serves to question the main character's guilt, who is forced to carry out extreme actions in order to survive in the society of the era.

Author: Yamina Chouari Morandeira
Degree: History
Summary: The project studies the origin of political feminism through the character of Olympe de Gouges (1748-1793).

Author: Ivan Monmany Mendaña
Degree: Classical Studies
Summary: This project focuses on the study of Book 12 of the "Palatine Anthology". A compilation of epigrams from various eras and authors. The main theme of Book 12 revolves around the conception of love between men, specifically, between an adult man (ἐραστής) and a young man (ἐρώμενος). This way, the research is based on the importance of the ἐραστής-ἐρώμενος duality, an institutionalised relationship in Ancient Greece with a strong civic component.

Mujeres que luchan en la arena
Author: Lucía Ponce Cerezo
Degree: Archaeology
Summary: When we think about the ancient shows in Rome we came up with fighting gladiators, strong men who fought to entertaint the public. However, were there only men among the people battling at the amphitheatres' arenas? There is little talk on the participation of female gladiators. From classical authors we can get an idea about these women but it is not enough information to establish that they really existed. By analysing a series of found remains, such as inscriptions, reliefs or dowries found in many tombs, it is possible to confirm the existence of these women.

Author: Marta Cascales Tortajada
Degree: Sociology
Summary: This project takes as a starting point the Conflict in Ireland (specifically in Belfast, Northern Ireland), in which there was a political and national identity fight, which became strongly regulated by gender.
