| Résumé anglais |
This essay analyses the use of terror as a constructive mechanism of a conflictive image of maternity, as well as the process of becoming mother which the protagonist goes through. Using Rosi Braidotti's theoretical framework of « Becoming Woman », I investigate the rift between the categories of woman and mother, and the effect of gender and maternity on subjectivity as a site of transformation. The figure of the mother in Die, My Love serves as a prototype of feminist political subjectivity, demonstrating the struggle to achieve agency within the family. Harwicz achieves a complex and nuanced representation of this struggle as a process of becoming woman which questions the boundaries of maternity itself. Source : Éditeur (via OpenEdition Journals) |
