Popis: |
The purpose of this study is to investigate how homosexuality is being represented in the popular TV-series Friends. This study consists of scenes from three different episodes in which homosexuality is the main theme. A qualitative text analysis will be the foundation of the essay where the semiotic tools denotation, connotation and anchoring are significant. The analysis applies several theories such as myths, stereotypes, masculine theory and performativity. Using these tools the scenes were examined and interpreted by the authors. The results suggests that homosexuality is abnormal and is not something that the characters strive for. Homosexuality is used to make fun of rather than for diversity purposes. |
