Skozi smrt v življenje: ambivalenca v literaturi Sylvie Plath

Praznik, Sanja (avtor), Kos, Matevž (mentor)

Literatura Sylvie Plath je tankočutno prepletena z njenim življenjem, zaznamovala jo je zgodnja smrt očeta, ki je ni nikoli prebolela in je v njej povzročila boleč notranji razkroj, razpetost med protislovja in ambivalentna občutja. V zgodnejših pesmih hrepeni po izgubljenem očetu, njegovi ljubezni in varnosti ter se vseskozi poskuša vrniti k njemu. V kasnejših pesmih njegovo smrt občuti kot zapustitev in zavrnitev in se zato hrepeneči naklonjenosti pridruži bes, ki pa v njej povzroči občutke krivde. V zadnjih pesmih za svoje trpljenje okrivi očeta, njeno krivdo pa nadomesti goreče maščevanje. Diplomska naloga po kronološkem vrstnem redu obravnava pesmi »Full Fathom Five,« »Electra on Azalea Path,« »The Colossus,« »Daddy,« »Fever 103°« in »Lady Lazarus,« ki prikazujejo avtoričin odnos do osrednje figure njenega ustvarjanja, očeta, in v katerih sta v ospredju temi smrti nasploh in ponovnega rojstva, ki sta neizogibno povezani z očetovo smrtjo in tudi med seboj, saj je ponovno rojstvo mogoče le skozi smrt, ki je edina, ki bi ji lahko omogočila, da se osvobodi praznine, ki jo je v njej pustila očetova smrt, a ji to ni nikoli dokončno uspelo.

Izvleček

The literature of Sylvia Plath is exquisitely intertwined with her life, she was marked by the early death of her father, from which she never recovered, it caused her a painful internal disorder, a split between contradictions and ambivalent feelings. In earlier songs, she yearns for her lost father, his love and safety, and is constantly trying to return to him. In subsequent poems, his death feels like abandonment and rejection, and therefore the longing affection is joined by rage, which, in turn, causes her feelings of guilt. In the late poems she puts the blame for her torment on her father, while her guilt is replaced by a fiery revenge. The assignment in chronological order deals with poems »Full Fathom Five,« »Electra on Azalea Path,« »The Colossus,« »Daddy,« »Fever 103°« and »Lady Lazarus,« which shows the author's relationship to the central figure of her work, the father, and in which the topics of death in general and rebirth are at the forefront. They are inevitably associated with the death of a father and with each other, since rebirth is possible only through death, which is the only one that could enable her to free herself from inner emptiness, which was caused by father’s death, but she never entirely managed it.
