At the centre of this study lies the question if normative gender thinking affects the way poetry gets reviewed and how the reviews are written, this in relation to both the gender of the reviewer and the poet. The study crosses three academic fields; gender studies, poetry and journalism, and is based on the cultural studies theory of media affecting and even creating the world around it. The study is based on two types of analysis. One quantitative analysis based on the thematic criticism theory about detail studies that shows bigger patterns, this analysis focuses on how the poet and his/hers work are being treated in the reviews in areas such as how much space they´re given in the newspapers, how they are named by the reviewer and the tendency to quote the reviewed work. And one qualitative analysis based on the new criticism method of close reading, that focuses on the reviewers way of writing and how that may be connected with theories of gender differences, this both connected to the gender of the reviewers and the poets. The material chosen for this study are all the reviews that were published in the same newspapers and that reviewed two specific poetry works by two specific poets chosen with great sensibility to age and career so that their difference in gender would be the most significant difference between them. The works were chosen based on year of publishing, they were supposed to be published as newly as possible and as close to each other in time as possible. The works I ended up with were Dimman av allt (2001) and Svart som silver (2008) by Bruno K. Öijer and Silverskåp (2000) and Nu försvinner vi eller ingår (2007) by Birgitta Lillpers. The results of this study show several differences in how poetry is being judged and how poetry reviews are being written are connected with the gender of the poets and the reviewer. Lillpers got 35% less space in the newspapers and Öijers poetry got quoted a lot more which confirms that female poetry often is considered as less important than the male poetry, and that men in general tends to be judged as more professional than woman. The male reviewers tended to express themselves with greater certainty than the female reviewers who held a more professional tone in their reviews and focused more on the technical aspects of the poetry. This confirms the theory of the male words are being looked upon as the truth but contradicts the theory of women writing more based on personal experience and of women being less skilled in language techniques. In conclusion, there are differences in how poetry gets reviewed and how the reviews are written that are connected to the genders of the poet and the reviewer but these differences are complex and does not show a clear normative way of thinking about gender

Sedan 1990-talet har uttrycket ”det svenska musikundret” använts för att beskriva Sverige som en stor musikexportör i världen. Detta begrepp är dock mångfacetterat och inte helt oproblematiskt. I denna uppsats har jag genom en kritisk diskursanalys studerat hur det svenska musikundret framställs inom kulturjournalistiken. Mitt syfte har varit att ta reda på vilka diskurser av det svenska musikundret som dominerar i medieframställningen, hur dikotomin kultur och ekonomi synliggörs i framställningen av dessa diskurser samt vilken roll journalisten har i reproducerandet. Uppsatsen har Bourdieus teorier om kapital och fält som grund, vilka är essentiella för förstå de regler som förekommer inom populärmusikens produktionsfält. Vidare har jag utgått från kritisk teori, forskning kring kulturjournalistik samt relationen mellan ekonomi och kultur. I min analys har jag kommit fram till fyra dominerande diskurser – den postmoderna, den marknadsliberala, den kollektivistiska och den anti- nationalistiska diskursen. Utifrån dessa diskurser har jag kommit fram till några olika sätt som dikotomin kultur och ekonomi synliggörs på. Det har skett en de-differentiering och placeringen på produktionsfältet kan idag tillåtas vara närmare den kommersiella polen. Musikundret är en del av ”varumärket Sverige”, där Sverige som musikland lyfts fram, och fungerar som en populärmusikalisk kanon eftersom uttrycket pekar på någon slag enhet. Journalisterna är representanter i ett åsiktsmaskineri som handlar om det svenska musik- undret, vilka till stor del består av vita män. De bidrar till formandet och reproducerandet av synen på det svenska musikundret som baseras på subjektiva åsikter. Synen på populärmusik verkar från journalisthåll ha förändrats mot en större öppenhet även för mer kommersiella akter inom musikundret. Det visar på att journalisternas texter präglas av den samhälleliga kontexten, samtidigt som deras texter är med och formar samhällskontexten.
