Barbary Frischmuth (nie)obecność w Polsce. Twórczość pisarki i jej odczytywanie na niemieckojęzycznym i polskim rynku książki
Barbara Frischmuth’s (Non-)Presence in Poland: The Presence and Reception of her Works in the German-Speaking World and in Poland

Summary/Abstract: Both the occasion of Barbara Frischmuth’s seventy-fifth birthday and that of her reading in Poland have inspired an examination of the co-founder of the Grazer group’s presence and reception in the German-speaking world with that of her presence and reception in Poland. While literature by Frischmuth is enormously popular in the German-speaking world and her position on the Austrian cultural scene is of the first rank, there is scarce knowledge, popularity or regard for either her works or her in Poland. Only a couple of short texts and just two out of more than twenty novels have been translated into Polish. Polish academic interest seems to be limited to centers in Wrocław and Częstochowa. Since Barbara Frischmuth questions gender relations and interculturalism, her works deserve both greater attention and a more active publishing policy in Poland.
