description | « The Wall » is the greatest literary achievement of the Austrian author Marlen Haushofer, first published in 1963. The novel is a critical anthropological study of culture and civilization, allegorically exposing the way in which constitutive properties are attributed to the crossing of thematic boundaries, opening up a liminal territory in which the self oscillates between contradictory and multi-coded symbolic orders. Haushofer also deals with the paradigm of the «human-animal » connection, which is one of the basic philosophical-anthropological constants of her writing process. The novel sheds light on more general and subtle forms of patriarchal and instrumental domination and exclusion of human beings, particularly women. It highlights the circularity of these repressed experiences and incidents. This occurs in conjunction with the discourse of nature and the rediscovery of physical labour. In so doing, Haushofer also addresses the topicality of questions that tend towards ecocritical conceptions of Austrian literature. The questioning of the traces of the memorial substrates used applies above all to the mastery of a real or revealed past and the rescue of humanity. |
