DOI: 10.4312/an.50.1-2.5-24 Margaret Atwood’s Postcolonial and Post- modern Feminist Novels with Psychologi- cal and Mythic Influences: The Archetypal Analysis of the Novel Surfacing Andrejka Obidič Abstract The paper analyzes Margaret Atwood’s postcolonial and postmodern feminist novels from the psychological perspective of Carl Gustav Jung’s theory of archetypes and from the perspective of Robert Graves’s mythological figures of the triple goddess presented in his work The White Goddess: A Historical Grammar of Poetic Myth (1997). In this regard, the paper focuses on the mythic and psychological roles embodied and played by Atwood’s victimized female protagonists who actively seek their identity and professional self-re- alization on their path towards personal evolution in the North American patriarchal society of the twentieth century. Thus, they are no longer passive as female characters of the nineteenth-century colonial novels which are centered on the male hero and his colonial adventures. In her postcolonial and postmodern feminist novels, Atwood further introduces elements of folk tales, fairy tales, legends, myths and revives different literary genres, such as a detective story, a crime and historical novel, a gothic romance, a come- dy, science fiction, etc. Moreover, she often abuses the conventions of the existing genre and mixes several genres in the same narrative. For instance, her narrative The Penelopiad (2005) is a genre-hybrid novella in which she parodies the Grecian myth of the adven- turer Odysseus and his faithful wife Penelope by subverting Homer’s serious epic poem into a witty satire. In addition, the last part of the paper analyzes the author’s cult novel Surfacing (1972 (1984)) according to Joseph Campbell’s and Northrop Frye’s archetypal/ myth criticism and it demonstrates that Atwood revises the biblical myth of the hero’s Acta_Neophilologica_2017_FINAL.indd 5 13.11.2017 10:14:53 6 AndrejkA Obidič quest and the idealized world of medieval grail romances from the ironic prospective of the twentieth century, as it is typical of postmodernism.

She is also a celebrated Canadian poet, short story writer, national critic of cultural politics, cartoonist, watercolorist and environmental activist, who is greatly concerned with human rights. Owing to her impressively successful literary oeuvre and her critical- ly praised, best-selling novels, she has received numerous prestigious literary awards. As a consequence, now in her seventies, she enjoys the privilege of being canonized not only in Canada, where she is a cultural icon and media celebrity1 because of her keen public appearances on television, but also in the United States, where she is an American author whose creative masterpieces are taught at school on a regular basis or, sometimes, banned from it because of their night- marish contents. Margaret Atwood, daughter of an entomologist and professor of Zoology at the University of Toronto, was born in Ottawa in 1939 and spent an impor- tant part of her childhood in the wilderness of northern Ontario and Quebec, where her scientist father conducted research. As a child she was initially home- schooled by her mother, a nutritionist by profession. Greatly encouraged by her academically driven parents, she read books of different literary genres profusely from an early age and loved especially comic books, folk tales, myths, Andersen’s and Grimm’s fairy tales, which all significantly inspired her creative writing later on. In 1946, her family moved to Toronto, where she finally attended primary and secondary school regularly (full-time). She received a Bachelor of Arts in English (honors) and minors in philosophy and French from Victoria College, 1 According to York (qtd. in Howells, 2006: 37), Atwood has become a ‘Thing’. On the one hand, she is celebrated and admired as a literary and media superstar, on the other hand, she is the target of nasty comments and hostile attacks of many journalists who trash her for everything she does in the public eye.

At the university, she also met the literary critic and professor Northrop Frye whose lectures about myth/archetypal criticism deeply influenced her as a student and writer. After winning a Woodrow Wilson Fellowship, she pur- sued her graduate studies at Radcliffe College, Harvard University, where she received a master’s degree in Victorian literature. At Harvard, she also started working on a doctoral thesis, however, owing to her busy schedule as a writer and editor at the publishing House of Anansi Press in the early 1970s, she didn’t manage to complete the dissertation on ‘The English Metaphysical Romance’ of the nineteenth and twentieth century. Nevertheless, she reused the doctoral research material in her novels. She also taught creative writing and literature at several universities across Canada and the United States before she could make her living from professional writing. 1 2 Margaret Atwood as a Postcolonial Critic of Cultural Politics and Postcolonial Novelist Atwood became of age as a writer in the second half of the twentieth centu- ry when Canada, as a post-war

Prešeren, Polona 285088512 3 INTRODUCTION You simply have to love Slovenia, as it is the only country in the world with the word “love” in its name. This play on words denotes Slovenia in all its essence – a successful, creative, diverse and responsible country, despite the fact that it is one of the youngest countries on earth in terms of years of existence. In 1991, it declared its autonomy and independence and demonstrated that even young and small countries can become global players. It is hard to miss Slovenia in Europe with its strategic position in Central Europe – at the junction of the Alps, the Mediterranean, the mysterious Karst and the wide Pannonian plains. Within an area of 20,000 km2, we can admire its exceptional geographical diversity with rich natural and cultural traditions. It is precisely this mark of its position and natural conditions that have importantly denoted the character of Slovenians, while the turbulence of historically important transport routes has added vitality and inspired their creativity. You really have to love Slovenia. The feeling of affection for and belonging to Slovenia is indelible.

  • Zofka Kveder As a Cultural Transmitter1
    Katja Mihurko Poniž https://doi.org/10.18485/knjiz.2020.10.10.4 [email protected] UDC: 821.163.6.09 Кведер З. School of Humanities Original scientific article University of Nova Gorica Zofka Kveder as a Cultural Transmitter1 The article presents the forms and ways in which the cultural transmission of Zofka Kveder took place. It explains in which cultural spaces she worked and how she established personal contacts with artists. Zofka Kveder worked in a multidirectional way, as she promoted Slovene culture in the new cultural environments she moved into, and acquainted the Slovene cultural space with the achievements of foreign artists. She was also a mediator of ideas: feminism, Yugoslavism, and ideas about coexistence and mutual respect between different cultures. Zofka Kveder's translation oeuvre is very rich and almost unexplored so far, which opens up possibilities for new research. Keywords: Zofka Kveder, cultural transmission, feminism, cultural transfer, multiculturalism Introduction Zofka Kveder (1878–1926) was an enthusiastic researcher of new geographical and cultural spaces from a young age. As a twenty-year-old girl, she went to study in Switzerland, dependent only on her savings. Later, in the spring of 1900, she settled for six years in Prague, which was then a centre for young students from the Slavic south. The contacts she made in the Czech capital benefited her in the Croatian cultural space when she moved to Zagreb in 1906.2 Her desire to discover new worlds and establish contacts with representatives of foreign cultures was a trigger for many activities in the field of cultural transmission.

  • Writers in Between Languages
    5 Minority Literatures in the Global Scene Writers In Between Languages: This book is a collection of the contributions made by Basque Writers In Between Languages: writers and American and European academics to the internatio- nal symposium, “Writers in Between Languages: Minority Lite- ratures in the Global Scene,” held May 15–17, 2008 at the Center Minority Literatures in the Global Scene for Basque Studies, University of Nevada, Reno, in the United States. Our symposium attempted to think about the consequen- ces of bilingualism for writ ers in a minority language, like Basque, EDITED BY in that they are located in that “in-between” of different cultural Mari Jose Olaziregi and identity communities and subjected to constant exchange and recognition of differences. One could say that practically all the current 800,000 Basque-speakers or euskaldunak who live on both sides of the Pyrenees in Spain and France are bilingual. And that this bilingualism is formed in conjunction with such widely spoken languages as Spanish and such prestigious languages in literary circles as French; lan guages that, in turn, have been displaced by the enormously central and legitimizing place that English occupies in the current global framework. The sympo- sium attempted, moreover, to debate the consequences implied by linguistic extra-territorialization for many authors in a minority language, the realignment implied by the hegemony of Eng lish for E all other literatures, and the options open to a minority author to DIT E get their voice heard in the World Republic of Letters. Together D BY with the above themes, certain aspects of the academic study of a minority literature such as that of Basque completed the list of Mari Jose subjects we intended to examine.
