This thesis studies the role of musicocultural exchanges in female musician’s body formation within sociocultural context of Iran. By examining the impact of genderized norms in Iran, the thesis explores the discourse which shapes and influences female musicians’ lived experiences and internalization of regulatory
disciplines and genderized values. Drawing on Michel Foucault’s concepts of discourse and discursive formation, this thesis analyzes the power dynamics in Iran society, focusing on how sociocultural structures generate knowledge and construct
bodies as sites of social and cultural Knowledge. Borrowing from Sarah Ahmed’s Cultural Politics of Emotion, this thesis explores how emotion of fear shapes the surface of female musicians in Iran. -
