| Popis | The analysis presented in this paper focuses on "Srdcovka" (A Matter Close to Heart, 2023), a recent graphic memoir by Czech author Štěpánka Jislová. The memoir closely follows the formative years of Štěpánka, a young girl grappling with the various challenges of growing up and coming of age within the context of Czech patriarchal norms. This paper seeks to investigate the gendered construction of female identity through an examination of Štěpánka's character development. Furthermore, the paper also delves into how social expectations and gender norms shape her behaviour within romantic relationships. The aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive analysis that employs an interdisciplinary approach, integrating insights from several fields of study – especially autobiographical studies, comics studies, and gender studies. |
