A személyközi és az egyén-rendszer szintű viszonyok reprezentációjának összetettsége Ignácz Rózsa Anyanyelve magyar című regényében
The Complexity of the Representation of Interpersonal and Individual-System Levelled Relations in Rózsa Ignácz’s First Novel

Summary/Abstract: Having a plot set in the Transylvania of the late 1920s, Rózsa Ignácz’s first novel paints a detailed picture of the macro- and micro-worlds of the inhabitants of this special place and time. Although the novel has an 18 years old girl as the main character, the narration is not restricted to a stereotypical perspective of a young girl exploring love and a world of life decisions. On the contrary, the writer manages to pay attention and take into consideration all those perspectives − let them be national, economical, political, societal, generational or coming from language, ethics or gender −, that shape the fate of the main character and of her surroundings. This is the point where self-identity meets group identity and creates a particularly exciting clash of the two. This can be found not only in case of the main character, but in the case of every character and the worlds they are part of. Despite critics not always agreeing on this, Rózsa Ignácz manages to create a disciplined narration that is sensitive to this fluidity of identity. This paper’s aim is to follow all these movements in their dynamics and provide a map of how all these perspectives create a special type of narration which can be studied in the context of women’s literature and even feminist literature.
