Curso 2018-2019This essay will draw a comparison between two contemporary Irish and Galician crime novels. It will demand a gender perspective since the chosen novels are peculiar cases within the crime genre because of the female characters that develop roles which are usually interpreted by male characters. It will aim to explore to which extent the conventions of this genre are modified by the introduction of female characters developing these roles. In the middle of this process, it will also attempt to find, if possible, any traits of Galician and Irish identities, an how they relate to the conventions of crime novel fiction. This purpose will demand a study of setting, characters, themes, structure of the novel and any other aspect that turns out to be relevantengNovela negra irlandesaNovela negra galegaPersonaxes femininosCrítica feministaMaterias::Investigación::62 Ciencias de las artes y las letras::6202 Teoría, análisis y crítica literarias::620202 Análisis literarioMaterias::Investigación::63 Sociología::6309 Grupos sociales::630909 Posición social de la mujerMaterias::Investigación::63 Sociología::6301 Sociología cultural::630109 Sociología de la literaturaFemale Characters in Galician and Irish Contemporary Crime Fictionbachelor thesisopen access
