Narrative as a toolkit for identity performance

100%
EN
This study focuses on how adolescent females use discursive tools in order to get things done in talk. The focus of the analysis falls on situated narratives that speakers adapt in the context of wanting to simultaneously affiliate with, resist, and refine their identity. The claim made in this study is that the telling of small stories in a conversation does not only provide the connective tissue for the projection of identity but also binds interactants together. Also it will be argued that the stories coalesce in the course of their tellings with links to previous, present and future interactions, as well as to other tellings. Finally, the discussion will look into the implications of narratives-in-interaction for identity research. It will be argued that the telling of situated narratives is a privileged communication mode for the construction of discursive identities, provided tellers use them proficiently and skillfully. The conversations selected for the analysis are a part of longer interaction between three girls in early adolescence. The conversations, in Polish, were audio recorded, transcribed and subsequently translated into English.

The article is devoted to the ban on representing living people in theatre in the 19th century. The phenomenon of copying the physiognomy, behaviour and gestures of living, recognisable people on stage caused a lot of controversy, but it also constantly aroused much interest among spectators. The article presents a number of examples of violations of the principle of “not touching” living people, from the times of Bohomolec to the times of Wyspiański.  The author analyses three main motivations for the ban on portraying real people on stage, ethical, aesthetic and socio-psychological, using legal documents, rules of acting, anecdotes and memories. In the methodological layer she makes reference to, inter alia, the anthropology of the image, caricature and new studies on the history of theatre.

The aim of this article is to look at the categories of homo and heteronormativity with their resonance in Polish society. To visualise the specific strategies of identity performance beyond these concepts the author uses two main artistic examples created around the subject of HIV/AIDS - Angels in America directed by Krzysztof Warlikowski (2007) and An Ongoing Song by Szymon Adamczak (2019). Starting from the reconstruction of the debate about homoidentity on Polish ground, the article comes across topics such as living with the virus and struggling with gay self-identity, to finish with the new idea of moving forward from the strict categories of homo and hetero.
