Identitáskonstrukciók Kaffka Margit Színek és évek és Erdős Renée A nagy sikoly című művében
Identity Constructions in the Novels of Margit Kaffka and Renée Erdős

Summary/Abstract: The past decade of historic research in Hungarian literature has shown that we meet women writers and acknowledge them increasingly, we know of all the important feminist movements, but we have never really outlined an actual picture of literature written by women as a whole. We don’t exactly get straight answers if we only approach this part of literature from a gender/sex-oriented point of view, but we are no closer to an answer even if we were to disregard it. My study focuses on two novels, Kaffka Margit Színek és évek (Colours and years) and Erdős Renée A nagy sikoly (The big scream), and furthermore it highlights the question of exclusion from the literary canon and opens a discussion on how the then relevant social ideals reflected on identity through the lens of narrative psychology.
