| Description | This chapter is concerned with writing in Poland since the collapse of communism, when the debate about tradition revived again, but shifted slightly – this time pushed by the conditions of the market economy into raising questions about identity, modernity and the idea of a return to Europe. The chapter focuses mainly on the generation of Polish writers who made their debut around the time of the collapse of communism and whose work has since begun to appear in English translation. It considers the changing focus of the post-communist generation of writers, asks how the translations of their work represent Poland to the world and questions what these works might indicate about changes within contemporary Polish literary and political culture. In particular, the article looks at recent fiction from Polish women and gay writers, and themes including Poland as post-communist, post-nationalist, post-Jewish and post-German. Book Name: Tradition, Literature and Politics in East-Central Europe |
