V diplomskem delu sem se osredotočila na socialno neenakost in položaj žensk v romanih Hiša Marije Pomočnice, Na klancu in Križ na gori Ivana Cankarja. Na kratko sem orisala življenje avtorja, predstavila romane in sodobni slovenski roman. Romani Ivana Cankarja so znani po tem, da so izrazito avtobiografski, tako prinašajo vpogled v avtorjevo doživljanje družbenih razmer, ljudi, ki so ga obkrožali in njihove tegobe ter problematike, kot so: revščina, socialna neenakost, boj za preživetje, trpljene, pomanjkanje, nepričakovane smrti in podobno. Osredotočila sem se na sociološko obravnavo razmer tistega časa, največjo pozornost pa sem namenila ravno obravnavi socialne in spolne neenakosti, posebej pa sem izpostavila slabši družben položaj žensk.In my diploma thesis I focused on social inequality and the position of women in Ivan Cankar\u27s novels Hiša Marije Pomočnice, Na Klancu in Križ na gori. I briefly outlined the author\u27s life, presented the novels and the contemporary Slovenian novel. Ivan Cankar\u27s novels are known for being highly autobiographical, thus providing an insight into the author\u27s experience of social conditions, the people who surrounded him and their hardships and problems, such as: poverty, social inequality, the struggle for survival, suffering, deprivation, unexpected deaths and so on. I have focused on the sociological aspects of the situation at that time, and I have paid the greatest attention to social and gender inequality, with particular focus on the disadvanteged position of women in society
