„Lęk przed autorstwem” — twórcze pisanie a doświadczenie macierzyństwa / “The Anxiety of Authorship” — Creative Writing and the Experience of Motherhood
Journal Title: Zagadnienia Rodzajów Literackich - Year 2017, Vol 60, Issue 1
Abstract
The article concerns women’s presence in the area of art, especially the complex conditions of mothers’ literary activities. The author analyses the most important inhibitors of mothers’ literary works infuenced, among others, by material, psychological and socio-cultural factors in the context of “anxiety of authorship” and indicates their connections with the process of tradition and literary communication building. The works of contemporary mothers (among others S. Plath, E. Şafak, R. Cusk, J. Jagiełło) related to the record of individual experience is, in the context of the subject matter and emancipatory issues, a gesture of regaining “one’s own room” and one’s own voice as well as a basis to re-vise (A. Rich) the canon of creative imagination.
