Author(s): Ivan Velchev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2017

In a deconstructivist manner it outlines and dismantles a series of oppositions, restores forgotten ways of sensemaking. As an example of the open work conception Radichkov’s “Carambuka” makes a reader as an open structure that brings text to life.

ЕГИПЕТСКАЯ ТЕМА В ТВОРЧЕСТВЕ А. П. ЧЕХОВА

Author(s): Elena Suzryukova / Language(s): English,Russian Issue: 2/2017

The present article deals with the biblical themes of the escape to Egypt and the exodus from Egypt as depicted in the narrative and the epistolary fiction of the writer. In the letters of A. P. Chekhov Egypt is associated with favorable living conditions for those who suffer from lung diseases. Besides, the author was taken with the idea of visiting this country, but his dream did not come true. In the early Anton Chekhov’s short story “Holiday” [“Prazdnichnye”] the motif of the escape to Egypt is put in a humorous context. The same motif along with the motif of the Exodus from Egypt was used by the author in the story “Men” [“Muzhiki”]. Both in the letters and in the stories and novels of the writer, the motif of the escape to Egypt keeps the Christian semantics of Salvation. In the short story “Misery” [“Toska”] Egypt is implicitly present — it is linked with the epigraph to the text, the basis for which is a spiritual verse “Weeping of Joseph, when his brothers sold him in Egypt”. The motif of being in Egyptian slavery — another aspect of the theme in question — translates into a number of works and letters of A. P. Chekhov. This motif is associated with the meanings of freedom and grief. The article reveals and analyses the antinomic images of St. Mary of Egypt and Cleopatra of Egypt. Besides, it explores semantic realization of the set expression “plague of Egypt”.

Praca fizyczna z różowymi akcentami. Polskie doświadczenie migracyjne w powieści graficznej Rozmówki polsko-angielskie Agaty Wawryniuk

Author(s): Kris Van Heuckelom / Language(s): Polish Issue: 3/2016

Drawing on the most recent literature in the field of comics studies, this article offers an in-depth analysis of Agata Wawryniuk’s graphic novel Rozmówki polsko-angielskie [Polish-English Phrasebook] (2012). Van Heuckelom focuses on the interplay between the author’s thematic engagement with contemporary labour migration on the one hand and the book’s generic hybridity and stylistic expressivity on the other. Wawryniuk’s carefully penciled artwork reveals certain self-reflexive and performative traits: as a hand-drawn artefact bearing the fingerprint of its female maker, the novel embodies a kind of manual labour that fundamentally differs from the mind-numbing, repetitive, and risky forms of work carried out by the labour migrants depicted in the world of the story itself.

Inne emigracje? Spotkania (nie)możliwe polskiej prozy powstającej w Niemczech i w Wielkiej Brytanii

Author(s): Małgorzata Zduniak-Wiktorowicz / Language(s): Polish Issue: 3/2016

The article asks whether the most recent ‘Polish-German’ and ‘Polish-British’ prose by Polish emigre writers is keeping up with literary scholarship and its conspicuous preference for the paradigm of migration over emigration. Zduniak-Wiktorowicz looks at several younger Polish writers working in Germany and England (such as Magdalena Parys, Paulina Schulz, Alexandra Tobor, Jan Krasnowolski and Adam Miklasz) to produce a comparative account of both the circumstances of their emigration and their literary work. She demonstrates that authors born in the 1970s and 1980s draw on literary conventions that have never before been used on such a massive scale in this type of Polish prose. Her corpus includes the action novel, thriller, political thriller, detective novel, and themes related to these genres, such as mystery, taboo, or overcoming cultural conventions.

Frauenschicksale in Ingeborg Bachmanns späten Prosawerken

Author(s): Goran Lovrić,Slavica Dajak / Language(s): German Issue: 1/2017

The authors of this article analyse female characters in the prose of Ingeborg Bachmann. Her series of novels Todesarten – which includes Malina (1971) and Der Fall Franza (1979) – and a series of short stories Simultan (1972) are the subjects of the analysis. The authors prove that in the prose of the Austrian writer there appear women who are tyrannised by men and accept the role of a victim. Such an attitude leads Bachmann’s protagonists to both the loss of identity and self-destruction.

Българската история и липсващият литературен разказ за нея

Author(s): Dora Ivanova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 01/2017

According the famous researcher Boyan Nichev, the typological relief of the Bulgarian novel can be placed on three historic 'summits, 'as it were: the April Uprising, the September Uprising and the Ninth of September. Each of these highest points of historical activity of the masses leads of the rise of the novel. These highest points produce national masterpieces of their time, which have today become classics, but they are part of a long road toward approval in the Bulgarian literary canon. But outside the literary canon remain topics and events that prose does not tackle, and thus they fail to become a peak of our national history for different reasons. These are the focus of my text – an attempt to find “the new big story” of Bulgarian literature looking in Refugees by Vesela Lyahova.

„Септември ще бъде...” онлайн, или дигиталните преображения на „хартиения” текст

Author(s): Ivan Velchev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 01/2017

Iser’s conception of the implied reader allows us to understand more about reading opportunities, provided by technology since – by defining the reader as a disposition resulting from networks of text meanings – this notion allows their integration in the textures of the Net afterwards. As a conjunction of culture and technology, digitized text actually poses problem of bringing these together, of the cultural consequences of the encounter between digital and print culture. It is difficult to say whether this encounter refutes big postmodern myths, or proves them right, but this answer will undoubtedly affect the destiny of the text.

The constitution of a ‘new politics beyond left and right’: From ideological ambiguity to populist political communication

Author(s): Blerjana Bino / Language(s): English Issue: 16/2017

This article examines the political discourse of the Albanian Socialist Party from 2005 to 2009 during which it establishment a new profile under the leadership of Edi Rama. The article is intentionally constrained in scope and time as it seeks to zoom into the interrelation between the chairman’s political discourse and the political profile of his party. More concretely, this article investigates to what extent does Rama’s core theme of a ‘new politics beyond left and right’ frame the profile of the Socialist Party of Albania (SPA) in terms of: (i) political identity; (ii) political program; and (iii) relationship to constituents. Through discourse analysis of the SPA manifesto and Rama’s speeches, the article argues that the ideological ambiguity of Rama’s political discourse for a ‘new politics beyond left and right’ gives way to a political party, which moves sometimes on the right and other times on the left, without constituting a clear political identity and thus conducting a politics of avoidance. The article concludes that the SPA suffers from the absence of a coherent political program and is losing its representative function, by pretending to be the ‘party of all citizens’. The politics of avoidance and the ideological ambiguity have led to an increase in the use of populist political communication.

Literaturoznawstwo jako nauka. Nowe szanse, stare zagrożenia

Author(s): Andrzej Skrendo / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2017

Skrendo explores the scientific status of research in the humanities. Looking at the problem from a historical perspective, he reaches back to the anti-positivist turn and argues that the transformation that began at that time was about finding a common ground for all sciences. From a theoretical perspective, Skrendo’s argument draws on constructivist approaches, broadly understood, from Fleck and Kuhn to Luhmann and Latour. These researchers help us develop non-positivist approaches to the humanities’ scientific assumptions and goals.
