FEMEIA CENTRULUI ŞI FEMEIA MARGINILOR - MIT ŞI DEMITIZARE ÎN INTERBELICUL ROMÂNESC
THE WOMAN OF THE CENTRE AND THE WOMAN OF THE PERIPHERY – MYTH AND DEMYTHIZATION IN INTERWAR ROMANIA

Summary/Abstract: In the interwar Romanian novel, an important place is given to the female mystery, the woman becoming an easier or harder to decipher enigma to the extent that the prose writers succeed in mystifying or demising this enigma. Feminism itself evolves from the original one, equality (aiming at the constitutionality of equality of rights), to differentiation and liberation, to the radical feminism launched in the second half of the 20th century. The situation of women in the Romanian space has a series of similarities with the general European one, but also a series of specific elements. The vision of a woman surprises her by seeking a place that is as stable as possible in society, or she projects the outline of a femininity in search of material as well as sentimental stability. The entire picture of feminine characters from the interwar period complements the image of a determined society to complete its existence, to reach its goals, through various experiences, tricks or paying a price.
