Through Vila Myosotis ([1939] 1946), Gurian explores the possibility of reconciling with oneself by returning to the past. However, her escape into the world of dreams awakens repressed desires and origins. This reactionary tendency seeks to establish empathy in the face of progress and modernity, and it allows for the creation of an autonomous female subjectivity that challenges the dominant discourse of masculinity, portrayed here through vampiric imagery.}, doi = {10.4467/20843917RC.23.019.18513}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/romanica-cracoviensia/artykul/feminitatea-antimoderna-si-masculinitatea-vampirica-in-nuvela-soranei-gurian-vila-myosotis} }
