Recenzii
“The result is a fascinating reading about important stations in the selected writers' lives and careers along with Menyhért’s well-reflected challenging of their existing place in the Hungarian literary canon and her convincing arguments for the place they deserve in that very same canon. She undertakes this re-evaluation not only for the sake of demonstrating the shortcomings and narrow-mindedness of the existing canon but also to offer herself and other women writing today some literary predecessors of their own gender they can build on, both in terms of language and literary imagery and technique, and from whom they can take their inspiration. She demonstrates, against the oft-reiterated argument (by both male and some female literary critics and writers) that there is only one literature irrespective of the author’s gender, that gender matters, and that it matters to a very important degree when it comes to who is allowed entry into the canon and who, and why, is pushed to its margins or altogether out of it.”
