Intergenerational Relationships in Saga o ludziach ziemi by Anna Fryczkowska

Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on the analysis of intergenerational relationships in Anna Fryczkowska’s trilogy Saga o ludziach ziemi (The Saga of the People of the Land). The changes within these relationships stemmed from duties dependent on age and gender; they were influenced, among other factors, by attitudes toward novelty, attempts to transform existing gender relations, and the crossing of rules defining the conditions for marriage as well as age-related responsibilities. The concepts of „home and family”, along with work, remain fundamental values for all generations of the Jóźwiak family. Intergenerational relationships shape their fates and identities, although they do not entirely determine them.
