Povzetek

Kanadska pisateljica Alice Munro, mojstrica sodobne kratke proze in prejemnica Nobelove nagrade za književnost leta 2013, je pozornost literarnih kritikov v svoji domovini pritegnila že leta 1968 z objavo svoje prve zbirke kratkih zgodb. V dolgoletni pisateljski karieri je izdala štirinajst zbirk kratkih zgodb, za katere je prejela številne pomembne književne nagrade, med drugim leta 2009 mednarodno nagrado man booker za življenjsko delo. Številne njene zbirke so postale mednarodne prodajne uspešnice, v Sloveniji pa je bila popolnoma spregledana vse do leta 2003, ko je bila v slovenščino prevedena ena izmed njenih zgodb, šele leta 2010 pa sta bili v slovenščino v celoti prevedeni dve njeni zbirki. Potem ko je avtorica leta 2013 prejela Nobelovo nagrado, smo poslovenili še dve njeni zbirki. Osrednje vprašanje, na katerega želi odgovoriti disertacija, je, zakaj je bila Alice Munro v Sloveniji tako dolgo spregledana. Naša predpostavka je, da se razlogi za to skrivajo tako v specifikah njene pisave kot v posebnostih slovenskega kulturnega in literarnega prostora. Pisavo Alice Munro odlikujejo dovršen literarni slog, zapletene pripovedne tehnike, "regionalizem" in osveščenost glede ženskega vprašanja. Zaradi omenjenega je prenos njenih del v slovenski kulturni in literarni prostor problematičen, še posebej zaradi drugačnega razvoja zvrsti kratke zgodbe pri nas, drugačne tradicije ženske književnosti, ki je povezana z družbenopolitično preteklostjo tega prostora, ter zaradi posebnosti slovenske prevajalske in založniške politike, ki igrata pomembno vlogo pri odločanju o tem, kateri tuji avtorji bodo prevedeni v slovenščino.

Sekundarni naslov:	Alice Munro's Short Fiction against the Slovene Literary and Cultural Background
Sekundarni povzetek:	The Canadian author Alice Munro, master of the contemporary short story and winner of the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature, received the attention of literary critics in her home country already in 1968, with the publication of her first short-story collection. In her longstanding career, she has published fourteen short story collections, among which many received important literary awards, including Man Booker International in 2009, and several became international best-sellers. However, she was completely overlooked in Slovenia until 2003, when one of her stories was translated into Slovene. It was not until 2010 that two of her collections finally appeared in Slovene, followed by two other by 2015. The issue that this thesis addresses is why Alice Munro was neglected in Slovenia for so long. Our main assumption is that the reasons for the neglect of her work lie in the specifics of her writing, as well as in the specifics of the Slovene cultural and literary space. Munro's writing, which is characterized by complex writing aesthetics and narrative art, as well as by regionalism and the predilection for women's issues, cannot be easily transferred into the Slovene environment, where the short-story genre as well as women's writing have a different tradition, the latter being related to this area's specific socio-political past. Another particularity of the Slovene literary and cultural space is its translation industry and publishing policy, which play a crucial role in deciding which foreign authors will be translated into Slovene.
