Elfriede Jelinek è una scrittrice, drammaturga e traduttrice austriaca.

Nel 2004 le è stato conferito il Premio Nobel per la letteratura.

Elfriede Jelinek scrive contro il malcostume politico e della vita pubblica ma anche privata della società austriaca. Giudica l'Austria arretrata ed impregnata del passato nazista, e nutre nei confronti del proprio Paese un odio aspro e reciproco. Per esprimerlo utilizza uno stile sarcastico, provocatorio, che talvolta ella stessa, al pari dei propri avversari, considera blasfemo e di cattivo gusto. Infatti nella sua produzione letteraria la violenza, il sarcasmo e l'incantesimo costituiscono il mezzo per analizzare e distruggere gli stereotipi sociali e gli archetipi del sessismo. In particolare l'autrice porta avanti la denuncia implacabile della violenza sessuale contro le donne.I suoi tratti gentili e delicati sembrano porre in contrasto la persona, schiva, disponibile e concreta, con la figura pubblica che il regista Werner Waas definisce una “clava culturale”. Quello di Elfriede è infatti “un ruolo d'artista attivo, scomodo”, che lavora per “ridisegnare le mappe dell'esistenza”.Il teatro di Jelinek, trattando temi quali la politica e la condizione della donna, “è una miccia accesa”; “nella sua scrittura non ci sono regole” e la “messa in scena viene negata nelle sue regole fondamentali: azione, personaggio, luogo, esistsono solo tra le righe in una visionaria libertà”. La parola di Elfriede Jelinek è “allo stesso tempo puramente teatrale” perché “è in primo luogo, materia vocale, con un corpo sonoro vivo e presente fatto di fonetica, ritmo, una musica inscindibile dal senso”. Fra gli scrittori-drammaturghi degli anni duemila Jelinek rappresenta “la voce femminile più innovativa e provocatoria”.

“Beethoven’s sonatas, whether show so much variety that one has to ask oneself the fundamental question of what the much vilified word ‘sonata means. Perhaps Beethoven applied the word to entities that are not even sonatas in the strict sense of the term. One has to perceive new law in the highly dramatic musical form. Often in the sonata, feeling eludes form. In Beethoven, that is not the case, for here the two go hand in hand; feeling makes form aware of a hole in the ground and vice versa.”

The middling level has no terrors, no anxieties. They huddle together, indulging in the illusion of warmth. If you’re alone with nothing, and certainly not yourself. And how content they are with that state of affairs!”
