Resource summary
She Unnames Them
Postmodernism
New fiction
fabulation/Magic Realism
fantasy for reconsideration and reimagination of women's position
"Me Decade": short-story realist style
themes
fallacy of human superiority
rewriting as an approach to cultural forces of power relations
contestation of authority
discourses of difference and power
power relations: God as a creator of life, Adam as namer (patriarchal structures)
telling woman's part of the story, excluded from creative and linguistic power
unnaming herself rejects the role and cultural connection that the name casts on her
Annotations:
demolishes the barriers of dominance
language as an obstacle
Annotations:
a barrier relegating Eve and animals to generic functions in service of Adam's needs
ideal where hunter and hunted cant be distinguished
ecofeminism
Annotations:
similarities between rights of women and animals, all kinds of oppression emanate from the same source
devices
retelling of the myth of Genesis
subversion of mythical construction that justifies discourses of difference and power
intertextuality
Annotations:
Intertextual theory: all texts belong to an immense matrix where they are connected by common reading and writing practices
Bildungsroman
allusion, quotation
parody
ideological paralimpsest
Annotations:
offers silenced or ignored point of view
binary oppositions: she/he, them/us
lacks spatial or temporal details (postlapsarian condition)
mock tone deprives story from religious overtones
results in an utopian vision of power relations
in betweenness accentuated by surrealist elements and domestic affairs
