The contributors understand the wild zone as denoting the existence and experience of a group (ethnic, social, sub-cultural, sexual, religious, etc.) which is/was marginalized in American society. Reaching far beyond the boundaries of original agenda (Edwin Ardener’s and Elaine Showalter’s), the term’s applicability has been significantly enlarged. Its fluidity or fuzziness, however, ought to be taken as a blessing: in the rapidly changing contemporary («liquid») world it is the language that needs to keep up with new circumstances and developments, not the other way round.
Jerzy Kamionowski is a literary scholar, whose present work is focused on African American poetry, especially by women.
Jacek Partyka writes on twentieth-century poetry and poetics, both Anglo- American and from a comparatist perspective, as well as on American Holocaust fiction.
Both are Assistant Professors and teach at the Institute of Modern Languages at the University of Białystok (Poland).
