Stereotypes and stigmas in Andrea Coddington’s prose
Stereotypes and stigmas in Andrea Coddington’s prose

Summary/Abstract: Andrea Coddington’s biographical novel, A zsidó nő [The Jewish woman], besides the methodical analysis of the literature, might provide a good reason for a multiple-layered investigation. The study provides a picture about the role of the Jewish woman in the society, bringing the known Jewish and Jewish woman stereotypes to the surface. The text reveals such negative prejudice-filled stereotypes as being chosen, stigmatized and rejected, which – in binary oppositions – put types in front of us. The text in question also offers the portrayal of the archetype of the Jewish woman.
