Özet

What is both ideological and magical about ‘memory’ is the fact that it is both singularand plural which acts as a bridge between the personal and the collective. The example ofthat kind of a bridge is especially represented through literature. In Hawthorne’s The ScarletLetter (1850) and Kate Chopin’s The Awakening (1899), the female body is used as a text toreflect both cultural and personal memory and to define how ‘memory’ is tried to be shapedby the society. One of America’s first mass-published books, The Scarlet Letter’s protagonistHester Prynne illuminates the geography of the female body that rebels against the culturalmemory through wearing the letter ‘A’ on her gown at all times that signifies ‘adultery.’On the other hand, her silent rebellion has achieved to transform the letter ‘A’ into ‘Angel,’‘Artist,’ ‘Art,’ and ‘Able’ that is the declaration of independence of the personal memoryover the cultural. Like Hester, in order to escape from the limitations of the cultural memory,Edna Pontellier in The Awakening rebels against cultural memory and learns to swim in theocean and focuses on art which immediately overlap the definition of her role in life. Thecomparative analysis of both of the works underline the fact that the female body has beenused as a geography of cultural memory throughout the history. However, Hester and Ednaare significant for the fact that, the psychic device of both women is a silent rebellion whichcreates a social space to fight against cultural memory.
