The traditional literary representation of the village has completely changed in the contemporary literature. It is no longer the symbol of isolation, narrow-mindedness, of a non-informative medium, but that of the individuality and originality. The depiction of the local scenes from an ironic, parodistic aspect characterizes the writings of the younger generation. The documentation of the micro worlds and over-mythologization of the village-situations manoeuvre the texts. All stories are related, get written further and take a shape in a closed space of a micro community that already transforms its characters with undetermined identity and its discouraged readers into the virtual literary medium.

The present study deals with the history of the Kriterion Publishing House between 1970–1989 as constructed through audio interviews made with several ex-members of the publishing house staff . The pre-planned interviews were made with the purpose of learning about the ways in which the publishing house supported the minority cultures so that to ensure their survival in the last two decades of the Romanian communist regime. In doing so, the study focuses on a significant phenomenon of the cultural life from the period by combining anthropological and micro-historical methods with discourse analytic approach. By examining the cultural components of the informants’ discursive accounts the study intends to provide a novel interpretative framework concerning the Kriterion, a framework which consists of identity-aspects involved in every-day working practices and of the limits set by the ruling power of the period.

The following study is one of the chapters of the doctoral thesis entitled Continuing writing the stereotypes of the Monarchy-literature and interculturalismin the contemporary Hungarian short story literature in Vojvodina. The study seeks the answer to the question of how the stereotypes of the Monarchy-literature are written and survive in the contemporary Hungarian short stories in Vojvodina. In the short stories various motives can be found that act as a stereotype. As such is the homeland, military, army, language and the railroad. The railroad, the army and the homeland appear in the short stories of all the three authors.The historical, retrospective narration is frequently extended by tale elements. It is necessary to treat the next concepts coherent: tale, fairy-tale, history, storytelling, narration.I consider important to examine together the sites and stories of the migrant authors’ short stories full of nostalgia. The micro stories I have examined represent a mosaic of the history. The study is in search of these contexts and also compares them.
