The purpose of this essay is to present the most important female protagonists in their interaction with Don Quixote. The vision of Golden Age introduces significant ambiguity into the woman's image: she is essentially related to fertile Mother Nature and, at the same time, is to fulfill the ascetic ideal unceasingly menaced by bodily passions. Both the ideal and Don Quixote are put to the test by particular female protagonists using their body, literary conventions and social relations. Marcela chooses the pastoral romance to gain the autonomy but at once needs to leave the society, Dorothea gets identity inside the social order through the chivalric romance, while Duchess takes her power from the social status. The Death's figure connected with Duchess shows that the real opposition organizing the novel might not be idealism/materialism or mind/body but both these elements put against the social order.

The key quality of contemporary Croatian literary production is the simultaneous existence of several individual poetics. We could choose to follow the formation of certain groups or identify common denominators (women’s writing, war writing, body writing, new realism). In this essay I’ll concentrate on female authors of the last two decades who are dealing with body topics in their works. In this essay I would prefer to interpret the novels published by Irena Vrkljan, Slavenka Drakulić, Daša Drndić and Dubravka Ugrešić, bearing in mind the thematic focus of their novels: a body confronted to illness, sexual and war violence, the pasing of time.

The article pays attention to a specific inhumation grave of a female with a toddler uncovered together with 10 cremation graves from the Middle La Tène period (stage LTC1) at the site of Nitra-Mlynárce. The inhumation grave is dated to the end of stage LTC1 (C1b–c) and it can be characterized by several specific attributes: 1 rare orientation of the buried woman with her head to the east; 2 depositing of remains of the dead female in a flexed (“hocker”) position on the right side which can be associated with the baby in her arms; 3 specific costume garniture characterized by absence of anklets, by a chain belt and an armlet; 4 higher social status of the buried female indicated by textiles/burial shroud decorated with gold; 5 chain of 23 mutually hooked cramp irons probably as a symbol of the kinship of the mother and her child. The remarkable grave complex is assessed in the context of analogous finds and paleo-demographic profile.

The study focused on the gender differential item functioning in Slovak version of the Intelligence Structure Test 2000 - Revised (Amthauer et al., 2011). The sample included 744 middle and high school students with mean age of 16.94 years. The non-parametric method SIBTEST for identification of items with differential functioning was used in order to detect uniform and non-uniform DIF. The analysis showed that the I-S-T 2000 R includes several items with DIF favouring either males or females, but in most subtests, with no or small effect on differences between genders. Substantial but nonsignificant effect of DIF items on subtest score was found for Verbal Analogy, which contained six items with DIF and all favouring females. These items included verbal content related to areas more common for females such as diet or food. The results suggest that specific content of verbal intelligence items can be a potential source of gender bias.

In this paper the author has analysed the artistic manifestations of the ego-forming strategies of Sándor/Sarolta Vay (1859–1918), guided by the patterns of norm-following and norm-rejecting gender performativity and also by stepping outside of these patterns. Sándor Vay was born as a woman but lived as a man, constructing his writer ego as a male author as well. This construction could be one form of queer masculinity based on corporeality. The first part of this paper demonstrates Vay’s career; the second analyses Vay’s poems published under a female name and those published later under a male name, investigating the strategies of textual creation of sexuality and gender.
