„Człowiek jest rozkoszą człowieka”: dziewiczy król w dłuższej wersji Hrólfs Saga Gautrekssonar

Autor

Abstrakt

Niniejszy artykuł na ma celu zmianę pozycji dyskusji na temat płci w średniowiecznej literaturze islandzkiej poprzez podejście do płci nie jako stałych kategorii tożsamości, ale jako serii dynamicznych procesów. Biorąc pod uwagę, że tożsamość społeczna w średniowiecznej Skandynawii była niestabilna i trzeba ją nieustannie renegocjować, uważam, że staronordyckie koncepcje płci nie były zgodne z ustalonymi rolami binarnymi (jako przedstawienia stabilnych męskości/kobiecości), ale były raczej aktami władzy wywierającymi zróżnicowane dynamiki społeczne w przestrzeni publicznej. Biorąc dłuższą wersję Hrólfs saga Gautrekssonar jako studium przypadku, skupiam się na jej twórczym przekształceniu motywu literackiego dziewiczego króla, a zwłaszcza na męskości tej postaci, która żywo ilustruje te wielopłciowe zagrania. Wyraźnie staram się „pozbawić płci” męskość sag, interpretując ich prowokacyjną dynamikę jako wyzwalacz zmian społecznych dla zaangażowanych postaci, które mają również wpływ na ich własne konfiguracje tożsamości. Choć to produkt fikcyjnej rozrywki, a nie rzeczywistości historycznej, twierdzę, że postać meykóngr w tej sadze odzwierciedla podwyższoną wrażliwość opinii publicznej na zmiany klimatu kulturowego średniowiecznej Skandynawii, wskazując na społecznie i historycznie uwarunkowaną naturę normatywności płciowej.
