Description
Summary:This research aims at depicting the form of masculinization of homosexual by using body and organization as the political tools against masculine hegemony in Tristan Garcia�s romance La Meilleure Part des Hommes. Masculine tends to refer to heterosexual male while considers homosexual male not as the part of its hegemony. The homosexual male become the subversion of the heteronormativity that works within society. There are two groups of masculine, the first is masculine hegemony. In Garcia�s romance, this group is represented by the heterosexual male, whereas the second one is masculine subordinate which is represented by those who do not belong to the heteronormativity, like homosexual male. In his romance La Meilleure Part des Hommes, Garcia wrote that homosexual are able to strive for their rights against the oppressions from the homophobia and the AIDS issue that corner their position. Heteronormativity believes that body is the shaper of gender and the homosexual choose it as the dispute arena to voice their aspiration through politics.
