The Echoing Myth. British Biblical Rewritings in Context, 1980s-2010s
Ewa Rychter
Książka jest poświęcona wybranym współczesnym brytyjskim powieściom, które przepisują (powtarzają w formie echa) dwa mity biblijne i mit Biblii. Niniejsze studium postrzega rewizje biblijne autorstwa Winterson, Burgessa, Roberts, Crace’a, Alderman i Pullmana jako krytyczne refleksje nad współczesnymi sposobami rozumienia brytyjskiej tożsamości narodowej, relacji między kobietami oraz tradycji liberalnej. Powieści te krytycznie przyglądają się biblijnym mitom/mitowi Biblii, próbując tak je zrewidować, aby wykorzystać je do mniej dogmatycznego, bardziej płynnego wyobrażenia wspólnoty. Taka słaba, samoświadoma i krytyczna rewizja mitów biblijnych wyłaniająca się w tych powieściach jest nazwana „the echoing myth”.
