Odra - rzeka ekoparadygmatyczna
Streszczenie
The author aims at presenting examples of literary descriptions of Odra
flooding (especially in the context of the most recent in 1997 and 2010) and
the river regions in the perspective of aquacriticism. This approach belongs
to a wider concept of ecocriticism which perceives the river as a key part of
environment. The question being posed is what kind of influence can be
traced in literary texts representing floods and how does literature influence
perception of aquatic catastrophes such as floods. Since flood belongs to
the catastrophe discourse, it blurs anthropocentric knowledge on rivers
and indicates aquacentric modes of recognition.
The ecoparadigmatic role of Odra is indicated by Silesian authors
(in the collection Wie die Oder rauscht) and writers biographically connected
with the river (Tokarczuk). The environmental function of the
river can be better acknowledged through literary fiction that “gives voice
to the river”.
