Adult Girls and Their Little Dolls – Reborns in the Postmodern Culture
Abstract
The article deals with the analysis of the phenomenon of simulating motherhood
and fatherhood by playing reborns – realistic baby-like dolls, it describes
the process of reborns creation, the intentions of artists who create
them and the motives of people who use ‘artificial children’. The article gives
a threefold analysis of the phenomenon: the striving for living in perfect
reality that is simulated (based on the concept by J. Baudrillard), acting the
play of family life in the magic world of consumption (based on the concept
by G. Ritzer) and aiming at collecting experiences, impressions and emotions
(based on the concept by Z. Bauman). As an educationalist I am considering
the following: may using reborns have a therapeutical and educational
aspect and what is their role in the postmodern world.
