Tradicijom promišljena suvremenost: Robinja Ranke Mesarić

Tema je rada novo čitanje i inscenacija Robinje Hanibala Lucića iz 2003. godine, nastala u suradnji Hvarskoga pučkog kazališta i redateljice Ranke Mesarić. U radu se analizira redateljičino čitanje Robinje kao priče o »ljubavnoj odgodi« koja podvlači temu traume i nasilja nad ženom. Rad propituje mogu li se pukim kraćenjem izvornika i pouzdanjem u ljepotu njegova izraza zaliječiti mjesta koja neupitno simboliziraju dominaciju patrijarhalnog i kupoprodajnog diskursa i zbog kojih ženski glas nema priliku posvjedočiti svoju traumu.
The subject of this paper is new reading and stage setting of The Slave Girl by Hanibal Lucić in 2003, produced by Hvar Public Theatre and a director Ranka Mesarić. The paper analyzes the director’s reading of The Slave Girl as a story about »love delay« which subsumes the themes of trauma and violence against women. The paper questions whether it is possible by shortening the original script and relying on the beauty of its expression to heal the spots that clearly symbolize the dominance of the patriarchal and trade discourses and due to which the female voice does not have the chance to witness its trauma. Furthermore, it is analyzed whether the setting of the play in Hvar’s ambient, that figures as the surreal homeland refuge, could enable the rehabilitation, i.e. whether the »delay« is indeed the point of contemplation and healing or just an escape from the suppressed trauma.
