Recenzentka omawia monografię „Kol isze – głos kobiet w poezji jidysz (od XVI w. do 1939 r.)” („Kol ische – The Voice of Women in Yiddish Poetry from the Sixteenth Century to 1939”; Sejny 2018) autorstwa Joanny Lisek, ocenianą jako jedno z ważniejszych osiągnięć zarówno literaturoznawczych badań jidyszystycznych, jak i krytyki feministycznej w Polsce. Wykorzystując narzędzia oferowane przez tę perspektywę badawczą, Lisek przedstawia rozwój jidyszowej liryki kobiet jako drogę emancypacji, prowadzącą do uczynienia głosu kobiet słyszalnym w zdominowanej przez mężczyzn przestrzeni kultury żydowskiej. Osobnym walorem monografii są przekłady poezji, a komentarze tłumaczki stanowią integralną część lektury tekstów.

The reviewer discusses Joanna Lisek’s monograph entitled “Kol isze – głos kobiet w poezji jidysz (od XVI w. do 1939 r.)” (“Kol ische – The Voice of Women in Yiddish Poetry from the Sixteenth Century to 1939”) (Sejny 2018), regarded as one of the most vital achievements both in Yiddish literary studies and in feminist criticism in Poland. Employing the tools offered by this research perspective, Lisek presents the development of women Yiddish lyric poetry as a way to emancipation, leading to making women voices audible in the space of Jewish culture dominated by men. A separate value of the monograph is translation of the poetry, and the translator’s commentaries make up an integral part of reading the texts.

The article is a critical analysis of a monograph by Joanna Szewczyk on the problem of femininity in Teodor Parnicki’s historical novels. The author suggests that Joanna Szewczyk precisely and multilaterally analysed the problem of feminine historiography and mythology in five novels. Using analytical tools created by feminist criticism the author combines the problem-focused approach with a very precise close reading of selected novels. As the author suggests such an approach is adequate and allows Szewczyk to present a convincing analysis of the problem of femininity in Parnicki’s prose.

Martha the Hostess and Mary the Listener. A Dialogue with two Feminist Interpretations of Luke 10:38-42

This article examines the pericope of Lk 10:38-42 through the lens of gender. It presents the specific contributions of E. Schüssler Fiorenza and also M. Perroni, both of whom have interpreted the passage according to a feminist approach. The former has developed some hermeneutical criteria while the latter has insisted on female discipleship, claiming that, for Luke, the women are believers but not missionaries. The present article turns critically on the essential points of the two commentators, showing that a careful philological and contextual analysis does not allow the episode to be read as a representation of ministry in the Church. Instead, Mary’s behaviour of placing herself at the Lord’s feet appears alienating, an action which is both surprising and contrary to the social canons. The episode lays stress on precisely this difference, showing that the two poles are not "service" and "listening" but rather "distracting preoccupations" versus a "disciple’s attitude". The behaviour of the two sisters thus functions as a mirror by which the reader is invited to discern different attitudes towards Jesus.

Drawing on Allan Edgar Poe’s provocative statement that “The death ... of a beautiful woman is, unquestionably, the most poetic topic in the world” (1951: 369), I will focus on the pivotal role of Shakespeare’s Ophelia in attesting to this assertion. Ophelia’s drowning is probably the most recognizable female death depicted by Shakespeare. Dating back to Gertrude’s “reported version” of the drowning, representations of Ophelia’s eroticized death have occupied the minds of Western artists and writers. Their necrOphelian fantasies materialized as numerous paintings, photographs and literary texts. It seems that Ophelia’s floating dead body is also at the core of postmodern thanatophiliac imagination, taking shape in the form of conventionalized representations, such as: video scenes available on YouTube, amateur photographs in bathtubs posted on photo sharing sites, reproductions and remakes of classical paintings (e.g. John Everett Millais), and contemporary art exhibitions in museums. These references will demonstrate that new cyber story - digital afterlife - is being built around the figure of Shakespearean Ophelia, unearthing the sexual attraction of the lifeless female body.

The discussion of the ways one conceives of and reflex upon the procedures of archiving the opus of actresses active in the socialist period represents one of the urging tasks of both theatre studies and feminist criticism in Croatia, given the relative scarcity of interest for this area of research within Croatian theatre academia. This study presents the results of a research done on the work of one of the leading Croatian actresses after WWII, Neva Rošić, which mostly rely on the discourse analysis of theatre reviews, interviews, personal letters, articles written by the actress herself and other media reports on her major successes on the stage. A whole array of sources is thus summoned to corroborate the thesis that the female acting practice in this period, belonging as it does to the poetics of impersonation, could figure as an interesting ground for the analysis of both the issues of female acting authorship, and the cultural construction of gender norms, as well as the means and outcomes of their performative subversion.

The aim of this paper, is to try to use feminist and gender theories to read Slavic cultural material, as well as to complete the picture of diversity of Slavic gender orders. For this purpose, the paper focuses on biographies written by Renáta Tyršová devoted to her father and husband. The analysis of this case requires using the feminist criticism of autobiography theory, which is hardly theoretically absorbed within Slavistics. Article seeks to explore the complexities of the relationship between female individual autobiographical “self”, structure of female gender in the bourgeois society of the 19th century, and finally collective idea of nationalism.

The article presents the most important research perspective regarding women’s and girls’ diary writing in English, French and Polish. The analysis discusses major works on the women’s autobiographical writing, monographs and collective works on diaries. Contrary to appearances, at the beginning the autobiographical turn in the feminist criticism did not include the diaries written by girls and women – as paraliterary, imperfect texts. On the fringes of the feminist interest in diaries were the French studies (including Philippe Lejeune, the most outstanding researcher in this subject) and still rudimentary studies in Poland. The lack of interest in the Polish personal diaries, it seems, results from the lack of bibliographic studies and an extensive editorial project, which would disclose a great number of texts of significant value for our diary writing hidden in the archives.

Women and the Canon. Are We Justified to Speak of a Female Literary Canon Nowadays?

The paper is initiated by a brief outline of the development of women’s literature in the ex-“East European” countries since 1989. Then it turns to feminist literary theory tracking two different periods of its reception by, and adaption to, literary criticism in post-communist academic research. The concepts of women’s generations and women’s literary canon, vital for the western tradition of gynocriticism, are closely analyzed in line with their relevance to present-day women’s literature in post-communist culture. The paper ends with a presentation of a threefold model of the prospective to speak of women’s literature imbedded in, or in counter stance to, the traditional literary canon.

Wątki psychoanalityczne w prozie polskiej po 1989 roku. Próba rekonesansu

The Polish literature of 1945-1989 - compared to many countries of Europe and America - is characterised by relatively poor use of inspirations arising from the psychoanalytical tradition. After 1989, this situation was partially changed. Devoting a monographic, double issue of "Teksty Drugie" ("Second Texts") to the phenomenon of the Return of psychoanalysis - which was its illustrative subtitle - may be regarded as extremely characteristic for the reception of the idea of Sigmund Freud in new Polish political and cultural reality. In the presented article, several prose texts written in the 1990s (by, among others, Olga Tokarczuk,Małgorzata Saramonowicz or Joanna Bator) were analysed, in which we observe rather clear references to many theses of the author of Introduction to psychoanalysis and his successors. Some of the literary works were interpreted in the context of intersexuality. Frequent - more or less explicit - references to various works of Freud (and of his successors, continuators, revisionists or polemicists) some times take on the character of inter-textual references, with which the analysed prose seems to match the literary trend which was distinctive for the Polish output of the 1990s.

This article offers a critical discussion of Anna Dżabagina’s monograph book Kalkowska: Biogeographia [Kalkowska: A Biogeography] (Warsaw 2020) in the context of the newest research on the work and life of the Polish-German author Eleonora Kalkowska. The reviewer discusses the influence of Dżabagina’s methodological inspirations – especially Exile Studies, geopoetics and feminist criticism – on the way the material is approached. She emphasizes Dżabagina’s extensive archive research, comments on her presentation and problematization of the sources, as well as her choice of historical and cultural contexts. According to the reviewer, the greatest merit of the book is that it broadens and verifies what has been known about Kalkowska to date, and places of her work and biography in the context of exile modernism.

The essay offers an analysis of Flesh and Blood, a novel by Michèle Roberts, first published in 1994. It discusses the book from the vantage point of French feminist criticism, especially écriture feminine, as well as gynocritics. The theory serves as a reference point for a better understanding of the novel’s structure, language and plot. In the opening paragraphs, the essay delineates the main premises of écriture feminine, a French feminist theory represented primarily by Hélène Cixous and Luce Irigaray, and gynocritics, a concept developed by the American feminist scholar Elaine Showalter. It then moves on to portray Flesh and Blood as an example of écriture feminine, analysing the aspects of the novel that mirror the theories of the French feminist critics: characters, motifs, structure, formal ploys and language.

Extended Solidarity: A Feminist Reading of Anna Świrszczyńska’s Czarne Słowa

This article discusses selected reading strategies of Anna Świrszczyńska’s poetry, and Czarne Słowa [Black words] (1967) in particular, a collection which, in my reading, presents the intersections between gender, race and class. The ahistorical category of gender, which is dominant in the reading of Świrszczyńska’s poetry, is what obscures the complex image of social relations that emerges from her works. Employing feminist theories of social reproduction, I argue that the situation of women presented in Czarne Słowa not only differs from the one shown in Jestem baba [I am a woman] but also reveals Świrszczyńska’s ethical project, to which I refer as extended solidarity.
PL
Niniejszy artykuł poświęcony jest wybranym strategiom lekturowym twórczości poetyckiej Anny Świrszczyńskiej na przykładzie Czarnych słów (1967), książki, która w moim odczytaniu przedstawia nierozerwalny splot trzech społecznych uwarunkowań: płci, rasy i klasy. Dominująca w odczytaniu jej poezji ahistoryczna kategoria płci jest tym, co maskuje ów złożony obraz stosunków społecznych, jaki wyłania się z twórczości poetki. Przyjmując założenia feministycznych teorii społecznej reprodukcji, wskazuję, że sytuacja bohaterek Czarnych słów nie tylko różni się od tej ukazanej w Jestem baba, ale odsłania też przed nami etyczny projekt Świrszczyńskiej, który określam mianem solidarności rozszerzonej.

The article presents three fairy tales by Bettina von Arnim: Der Königssohn [The King’s Son], Die blinde Königstochter [The Blind Princess] and Hans ohne Bart [Beardless Hans]. These texts are studied from the point of view of their poetics and their rootedness in the romantic worldview. Moreover, on the example of Der Königssohn fairy tale, an attempt is made at feminist interpretation, while Hans ohne Bart is read using psychoanalytic tools.

Autorka artykułu zwraca przede wszystkim uwagę na miejsce, jakie zajmuje we współczesnych badaniach dotyczących autobiografii kobiet książka Czy w tej autobiografii jest kobieta? Kobieca literatura dokumentu osobistego od początku XIX wieku do wybuchu II wojny światowej. Zauważa, że kobieca literatura dokumentu osobistego nie jest jeszcze wystarczająco omówiona przez polską krytykę feministyczną. Anna Pekaniec podejmuje całościową próbę zbadania autobiografizmu tekstów kobiecych w perspektywie historycznoliterackiej i jako główny cel stawia wydobycie i opisanie cech kobiecej autobiografii, a także wskazanie propozycji definicji czy systematyzacji zjawisk typowych dla kobiecego autobiografizmu. Autorka artykułu zwraca uwagę na innowacyjność rozprawy – po raz pierwszy zagadnienie intymistyki kobiecej zostało poruszone w tak szerokiej skali, wskazując kierunki w znanych i nieznanych tekstach, rozszerzając pole badań na przedstawicielki różnych środowisk, o różnym statusie społecznym.
EN
The author of the text draws particular attention to the place the book Czy w tej autobiografii jest kobieta? Kobieca literatura dokumentu osobistego od początku XIX wieku do wybuchu II wojny światowej occupies in contemporary research on women’s autobiography. She notes that women’s literature of personal document is not yet sufficiently discussed by the Polish feminist literary criticism. Anna Pekaniec takes a comprehensive attempt to examine women’s autobiographical texts in historical and literary perspective and as a main goal focuses on presenting and describing the characteristics of women’s autobiography, as well as outputing a proposal for a definition or systematization of phenomena typical for women’s autobiographical documents. The author of the text points at the innovation of the thesis – for the first time the issue of women’s intimate journaling was raised on such a wide scale, indicating the directions in familiar and unfamiliar texts, expanding the research field for female representatives of different backgrounds, of different social status.
