Abstracts

PL

Publikacja stanowi recenzję książki From Post-Yugoslavia to the Female Continent. A Feminist Reading of Post-Yugoslav Literature autorstwa Tijany Matijević (2020). Pracę Matijević lokuję przede wszystkim w obszarze studiów postjugosłowiańskich, zwracając uwagę także na to, jak koresponduje ona z najnowszymi osiągnięciami z dziedzin pokrewnych, takich jak studia nad pamięcią. Pokazuję ponadto, jak autorka buduje twórcze ramy badań nad literaturą postjugosłowiańską, łącząc pojęcie écriture feminine, pisanie o jugosłowiańskiej przeszłości i wojnie oraz jugosłowiańskie dziedzictwo (neo)awangardowe.

This text is a review of Tijana Matijević’s book, entitled From Post-Yugoslavia to the Female Continent. A Feminist Reading of Post-Yugoslav Literature (2020). I situate the book primarily in the field of post-Yugoslav studies, but I also point out how it corresponds to recent developments in certain related fields, such as memory studies. I show how the author makes a creative framework for the study of post-Yugoslav literature by bringing together the concept of écriture feminine, writings about Yugoslavia’s past and the war, and the Yugoslav (neo-)avant-gardist heritage.
