Poezia Postconfesivă în Metamodernism: Explorarea Identităţii Și a Memoriei La Angela Marinescu Și Adrienne Rich
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This study offers a comparative analysis of postconfessional poetry through the works of Angela Marinescu and Adrienne Rich, emphasizing how both poets move beyond traditional confessionalism by using personal experience as a foundation for broader reflections on memory, identity, and historical context. Marinescu, writing from a Romanian post-communist perspective, and Rich, deeply rooted in American feminist and political discourse, engage with a global poetic consciousness. Their poetry exemplifies a metamodern sensibility, marked by an interplay between emotional depth and critical awareness, between personal vulnerability and social responsibility. Rather than presenting trauma as an isolated experience, they transform it into a space for empathy and resistance. Through recurring themes such as corporeality, marginalization, and the tension between inner life and external reality, the study shows how both poets articulate a shared literary sensitivity that transcends cultural boundaries, reflecting a literary synchronicity and contributing to the theorization of metamodernism in contemporary poetry.
