Problematica familiei în proza Liudmilei Ulițkaia (romanele ,,Cei dintâi și cei de pe urmă" și ,,Medeea și copiii ei")
The Concept of Family in Lyudmila Ulitskaya’s Prose (the Novels "The Queen of Spades" and "Medea and Her Children")

Summary/Abstract: The main theme of the current work concentrates on the portrayal of the family in two of Lyudmila’s novels. There are 2 depictions of the family in Lyudmila’s prose: the content family where everyone lives in harmony and the discontented family where people do not understand, nor respect each other. The article compares these types of families and their problems in the novels The Queen of Spades and Medea and Her Children. Ulitskaya presents the family as the base of human life. Families are the backbone which support a person and help them in the bitter moments of disappointment, cheering them up during the more joyful times. Families are similar to a place where a person develops and, leaving, they always return home. Exhausted, covered in wounds, lost, disoriented by the meaning of life, the man always returns to his family.
