Abstract
Članek se ukvarja s svojevrstno pisateljsko osebnostjo Almo M. Karlin, rojeno v Celju, ki je bila poliglotka in avtorica številnih potopisov ter drugih literarnih del. Ta dela je, čeprav hči slovenskih staršev, napisala v nemščini in z njimi v času pred drugo svetovno vojno dosegla mednaro- dno slavo. Bila je posebna ne le kot literarna ustvarjalka, temveč tudi kot upornica zoper ženske stereotipe svojega obdobja. Svet je prepotovala v času, ko je bilo samotno potovanje za žensko, ki se preživlja s pisanjem, nekaj popolnoma neobičajnega. Kot avtorica, ki je izvirala iz slovenskega okolja, a je pisala v nemškem jeziku, pa predstavlja tudi zanimiv primer medkulturne identitete. S svojimi literarnimi deli, od katerih večina ostaja še vedno neraziskanih, je kršila najrazličnejše klišeje in tabuje, zato jo uvrščamo med tiste osebnosti, ki so s svojo vztrajnostjo in ustvarjalnim pogumom zaznamovale 20. stoletje. This article is concerned with a peculiar author, Alma Karlin, born in Celje. She was a polyglot and an author of numerous travelogues and other literary works. Although Alma Karlin was the daughter of Slovenian par- ents, she wrote in German, and before the second World War her work became internationally recognised and famous. Still, even in postmodern times, she represents an interesting case of intercultural identity. Alma Karlin was also an eternal rebel against female stereotypes in her own time. She has travelled the world in times, when this was considered rath- er odd and unusual for a self-employed female writer. With her literary works, many still unexplored, Alma Karlin broke numerous clichés and taboos. That is why she can be classified as one those special, persistent and courageous personas and writers that characterised the 20th century.
