- W63960769 abstract "When readers enter fictional world created by twentieth-century Norwegian author Cora Sandel, they find a place populated by marginalized characters. Perhaps precisely because Sandel's work centers on marginality, it has only recently begun to receive attention it deserves among Scandinavianists.(1) Sandel herself lived a marginalized life in exile, first in France and later anonymously in Sweden. Moreover, her work is almost unknown among scholars in other disciplines despite good translations of major novels and short by Elizabeth Rokkan and Barbara Wilson. Wilson's translations of two of Sandel's finest have finally been made available in an anthology entitled An Everyday Story. Norwegian Women's Fiction (1984). One of stories,En gate [A Riddle or A Mystery],(2) serves as an excellent introduction to Sandel's major themes and metaphors. This story was first published in 1932 collection Carmen and Maja and Other Stories [Carmen og Maja og andre noveller] during Sandel's most productive period. In addition, story poses particularly interesting questions in light of current debates about issues of marginality and women's fiction. En gate is one of many short by Sandel referred to by Norwegian Sandel scholar, Ase Hiorth Lervik, as short stories (192; avvikernoveller). term can be interpreted as a reference both to marginalized position of Sandel's writing in canon of Norwegian literature, and to emphasis on marginal characters within her writing. central riddle of story, a woman of apparent wealth and questionable propriety, comes from liminal realm of sea, stays a while in confining and patriarchal society of a small coastal town in Norway, and in end returns inexplicably to sea. Sandel herself knew this isolated and constricting environment intimately, and biographical information indicates that she was in many ways just as isolated as character she creates. This woman, Mrs. Arnold, with her unknown past and, most importantly, her unpredictable behavior, is clearly a deviant figure, representing cultural experience of women traditionally unsanctioned by dominant patriarchy. By its very title this story demands of reader a solution to riddle of Mrs. Arnold. In this analysis I have produced a solution based on a reading of Mrs. Arnold as a prophetess. This solution to riddle of En gate is facilitated by a brief introduction to meaning of marginalism in context of Sandel's authorship. region Sandel explored in her writing lies outside boundaries of sphere of dominant society. This region is explicated in cultural model developed by English social anthropologist Edwin Ardener. In particular, Ardener refers to aspects of women's culture not sanctioned by or included in dominant paradigm as the wild zone. This term first appears in his 1975 article The |Problem' Revisited in which he uses anthropological field data to support his hypothesis. Ardener's research, although originally introduced within field of anthropology, has gained influence in feminist literary criticism, mostly through Elaine Showalter's interpretation. wild zone itself changes its degree of wildness according to cultural perspective. When dominant culture is represented by a solid circle (X) placed on a field representing wilderness (ABCD) and a dotted circle (Y), which represents muted culture, overlaps dominant culture, area they share belongs to both, and crescents outside this area are exclusive experiences of respective groups. From perspective of muted culture, its crescent (the wild zone) has been defined by dominant culture as marginal and deviant, while at same time it remains natural and non-deviant realm of muted group. From perspective of dominant culture, same crescent is associated with wilderness outside of culture and is thus dangerous. …" @default.
