Prozelityczny wymiar prozy Anny Fein
The proseltic dimension of Anna Fein’s prose

Summary/Abstract: Anna Fein’s works follow the trend of returning to the roots of Jewish culture and traditional Jewish spirituality. The writer links the national identity with religious identification. Her narrators-protagonists follow the path that she once went — building Jewish self-awareness until conversion to Orthodox Judaism. In this evolution, which is the foundation of most of the writer’s works’ semantic-ideological dynamics, a kind of Fein proselytism is revealed. The proselytical nature of Fein’s prose is also a derivative of the cognitive function, i.e., introducing the secular recipient to the orthodox community’s world. The power of proselytizing resonance is also definitely strengthened by the autobiographical elements present in Fein’s work.
