Frozen- Türkiyeli genç kadınlar- alımlama çalışmalarıÖzet
Bu makale, Frozen'ın genç Türk kadınları tarafından nasıl algılandığına odaklanarak üç ana soruyu gündeme getiriyor: (1) Türkiye'deki genç kadınlar Elsa'yı nasıl tanımladı? (2) Frozen ve diğer prenses filmleri arasındaki farklar nelerdir? (3) Genç Türk kadınları, Frozen’ın feminist bir film olduğunu düşünüyor mu? Bu araştırmanın en ilginç bulguları üçüncü soruyla ilgili. Burada yanıtlara yüzeysel bir bakış, araştırma katılımcılarının, Frozen'ın feminist bir film olmadığını iddia eden eleştirmenleriyle aynı fikirde olduğunu göstermektedir. Bununla birlikte, yanıtlarına daha yakından bakıldığında, araştırmaya katılanların filmdeki feminist nitelikleri fark ettikleri, ancak bunları feminist olarak etiketlemeye istekli olmadıklarını göstermektedir. Bunun nedeni, “feminizm” ve “feminist” terimlerinin ana akım Türkçedeki olumsuz çağrışımlarıyla ilgilidir. Buradaki genç kadınlar feminizmi “kadın – erkek eşitliği” olarak ifade etmişlerdir. Bu özel bulgu, herhangi bir kültürler arası araştırmada, "feminizm" ve "feminist" gibi, değerlendirici çağrışımlara sahip merkezi terimlerin çevrilebilirliğini araştırma ihtiyacına işaret etmektedir.
