Portraits of Women in Transylvanian Literature from the Beginning of the 20th Century

Summary/Abstract: The woman, an eternal story, directly or indirectly, has been throughout eras a major subject, also favoured by artists, writers, historians and sociologists. The art of character creation has always been a central point in criticism, both literary and cultural, as a direct result of the rapid ascension of cultural studies, and postmodern revaluations. The study broadens and refines current researches related to feminine typology in Romanian and world literature, paving the way to the national particularities of the Transylvanian genre, in order to preserve a valuable cultural-literary identity. Although increased attention is placed on portrayals of women in Romanian literature during the interwar period, the same cannot be said about the feminine representation in literature from the end of the 19th century – beginning of 20th century, with a few recent exceptions.
