Abstract

This thesis disrupts the labelling of homogenous feminist narratives by positioning feminist identity as a relationship between an individual's understanding of self and her place within the public discourse through the investigation of four authors and their works. The study also examines how each work interprets and evidences varying aspects of popfeminist identities. The investigated works include the novel Feuchtgebiete by Charlotte Roche (2008), the play Diebe by Dea Loher (2009), the social media movement #aufschrei primarily authored by Anne Wizorek (2013) and the social media movements #schauhin (2013) and #ausnahmslos (2016) primarily authored by K0bra G0m0say.
