Synopsis
SILENCE IN THE POETRY OF ANNA FRAJLICH
The article offers an analysis of the poetry of Anna Frajlich regarding the category of silence. In both the structure and the content of four lyric poems, the following mechanisms are singled out: silence, negation and contradiction, the conventions of a riddle or lack thereof.
Studying Anna Frajlich’s poetry with the help of these structures reveals deeper contents with direct references to events from her biography, in particular emigration, which constitutes the most important context. Some difficult and painful topics which the poet faces in this way include the exodus, the existential space, a return to the depths of memory, and the relationship to death.
