Depiction of Gender Violence in Eden Robinson’s and Lee Maracle’s Writing
Abstract:
Cílem této práce je demonstrovat vyobrazení rodového a rodinného násilí v domorodých komunitách v Kanadě ve dvou různých žánrech kanadské literatury. Rodové a rodinné násilí je vážným problémem domorodých komunit, a proto se tato práce zabývá tím, jak dvě původní (domorodé) autorky tento problém řeší v jejich psaní a zda lze konstatovat, že jejich díla odrážejí realitu.
