Рецепциja бугарске приповетке код српских младих читалаца – ка интеркултуралном образовану

Author(s): Biljana Soleša / Language(s): English,Serbian Issue: 1/2019

This paper examines the reception at the Bulgarian stories Serbian high school students as well as their basic knowledge of the literature in the region. The paper is based on the attitudes mihi Bakhtin who stressed that the literature can provide a unique understanding of ourselves and the societies and cultures to which we belong, but also an insight into the lives of others and their cultures and societies. The modern concept of education implies the development and acquisition of student competences. One of them is intercultural competence, which implies the ability to recognize and use cultural differences as one of the learning resources. Literature teaching provides great opportunities for the enhancement of intercultural competence. The aim of this work is that in this particular case, by the results of empirical research point to the need to strengthen intercultural competence and active participation of teaching literature in the concept of intercultural education. The paper presents the results of the reception at the Bulgarian stories high school students. The reception of the literary text and its performance are the factors underlying the teaching of literature, which is based on the acceptance of student work and the effects which it produced thereby. The survey includes stories in the fields of Anton Strashimir, Baja-Ganjo at Irecek Aleko Konstantinov and narrative by wire jovko Jordan. The results of empirical studies confirm our initial hypothesis that the literature of the Balkan people our students virtually unknown. On the other hand, the survey confirms that the reception of the Bulgarian stories in a very satisfactory level, which means “horizon of expectations” is not an obstacle to enrich the content of teaching literature, literature of the Balkan peoples.

Historical and Social Aspects of Migration in Marina Lewycka’s 𝐴 𝑆ℎ𝑜𝑟𝑡 𝐻𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑦 𝑜𝑓 𝑇𝑟𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑠 𝑖𝑛 𝑈𝑘𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑖𝑎𝑛

Historical and Social Aspects of Migration in Marina Lewycka’s 𝐴 𝑆ℎ𝑜𝑟𝑡 𝐻𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑦 𝑜𝑓 𝑇𝑟𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑠 𝑖𝑛 𝑈𝑘𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑖𝑎𝑛

Author(s): Ingrida Eglė Žindžiuvienė / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2022

This article analyses migration as a modern-day phenomenon and discusses the most common reasons for emigration out of Ukraine, as described in the novel 𝐴 𝑆ℎ𝑜𝑟𝑡 𝐻𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑦 𝑜𝑓 𝑇𝑟𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑠 𝑖𝑛 𝑈𝑘𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑖𝑎𝑛 (2005) by the contemporary British author Marina Lewycka (b. 1946), a descendant of post-Second World War Ukrainian immigrants. The novel alludes to many historical facts that reveal Ukraine’s painful past and represents the lives of Ukrainian immigrants in the UK. Its close examination of a Ukrainian family reveals characteristics typical of post-Second World War migrants from eastern Europe. The article also discusses the history of the emigration of Ukrainians into the UK, dwells on different periods and types of migrants, and focuses on the cross-cultural problems of migration described in Lewycka’s novel.

Символисти: авангардисти – книги: илюстрации

Символисти: авангардисти – книги: илюстрации

Author(s): Violeta Ruseva / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 2/2021

This article focuses on emblematic books written in the 1920s, taking as its immediate background the poetics of symbolism and avant-garde aesthetic strategies, along with the controversial, both umbilical and conflicting relationship between verbal account and illustration. In its close inspection of the dynamic historical development of critical reflection, it demonstrates how the book covers and illustrations of the first editions performed the function of a visual metalanguage and a critical reference to the verbal narrative.

Към „софийския роман“ на Иван Вазов

Към „софийския роман“ на Иван Вазов

Author(s): Antonia Velkova-Gaydarzhieva / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 2/2021

One of the core themes in Vazov’s short stories offers an original chronicle, a picture of the city life and culture in Sofia, its character and mentality. The capital city motif in Vazov’s works was approached and analyzed forty years ago by Svetlozar Igov in his article “On the Sofia Novel of Ivan Vazov”, which in turn was rejected by the then literary circles. Taking this article into account, this paper reconstructs and interprets the complex relations and the literary clash between the most original modern Bulgarian literary historian Svetlozar Igov on the one hand, and the key poet and leader of the “April generation” Lyubomir Levchev on the other hand.

Наивистичните небивалици на Йордан Радичков

Наивистичните небивалици на Йордан Радичков

Author(s): Denitsa Astahova / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 2/2021

The article examines the connection between fine arts and literature, and compares the naivist style of the painting and poetics of Yordan Radichkov in order to explain the emergence of a new phenomenon in the artistic style of the writer and the Bulgarian fiction of the 1960s – the collection Svirepo Nastroenie (Fierce Mood). The analyzed examples from the writer’s stories reveal correspondences with typical features of naivist painting – emphasis on detail, naivist mixing of distant images, and unmasking fear by interweaving comic and grotesque elements in the plot picture.

Български автори от Таврия

Български автори от Таврия

Author(s): Elena Nalbantova / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 1/2021

The object of observation is the literature created in Bulgarian by representatives of our historical diaspora in Tavria. It is described as series of three episodes, the emergence of which became possible after changes in the political context. The considered creative manifestations are from the time of the Russian Empire, from the 30s of the XX century and from the most recent time. Specific observations on the prose, published between 1932 and 1940, are made for the first time thanks to my collaboration with the Bulgarian from Chisinau Elena Raceeva. Despite the indisputable manifestations of creative talent, for the most part Taurian Bulgarian literature is an illustration of circumstances, rather than of creative potential.

Чудакът: Между първата сълза и последната радост (наблюдения върху разказите на Б. Станкович и Й. Йовков)

Чудакът: Между първата сълза и последната радост (наблюдения върху разказите на Б. Станкович и Й. Йовков)

Author(s): Marina Vladeva / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 1/2017

The purpose of the present paper is to expand the spaces for dialogue in two South Slavic literatures – Bulgarian and Serbian – by means of emphasising the typological similarities between two short stories – “First Tear” by Borisav Stankovic and “Last Joy” by Yordan Yovkov. The literary comparison between the two works can be made mainly in view of the characters’ system, and in particular – a comparison between the images of the eccentric, the social outcast – Stankovic’s Dimitar and Yovkov’s Liutskan. Despite that both characters have been created in different decades, the two texts outline the horizons of the difficult ascription of the other, of the differences in a social reality, which speaks the language of hatred, instead of the language of flowers. The two characters’ portraits and psychological characteristics, as well as the suffering as a form of their existential presence make their spiritual comparison most natural.

Романът „Временното“ на Габриела Адамещяну като още един прочит на миналото

Романът „Временното“ на Габриела Адамещяну като още един прочит на миналото

Author(s): Yoana Slavcheva / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 1/2017

The Novel “The Temporary” written by the Romanian novelist Gabriela Adameshtyanu was published in 2010 as a sequel to her first novel “The Same Road, Day after Day” and is both a political and a social novel focusing on the fate and the social position of the individual in the political context of Communist Romania. It presents a vivid and realistic picture of people’s lives in those years and deals with a number of issues such as the totalitarian regime as an evil that marred the destiny of entire generations, the fear, the strive for survival and personal growth in the context of various restrictions as well as the inevitable notion of “temporariness”, which was ubiquitous in those days.

Постмодернистката деконструкция на провинциално-имперските координати: „Убийство във Византия“ от Юлия Кръстева

Постмодернистката деконструкция на провинциално-имперските координати: „Убийство във Византия“ от Юлия Кръстева

Author(s): Roman Dzyk / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/2023

Julia Kristeva’s Murder in ByzantiumThe article examines Julia Kristeva’s novel Murder in Byzantium, in which a typical structuralist provincial-imperial model of the world order is deconstructed from the standpoint of post-structuralism. It is assumed that the appeal to the history of Byzantium has certain autobiographical grounds. In this way, Kristeva demonstrates the relativity of the concepts of ‘centre’ and ‘periphery’ from a historical perspective: Byzantium, Bulgaria, France, the United States eventually dissolve into the “global village”, which is embodied in the novel in the image of Santa Barbara.

ALICE WALKER’S WOMANIST OUTLOOK

ALICE WALKER’S WOMANIST OUTLOOK

Author(s): Amada Mocioalcă / Language(s): English Issue: 23/2020

Walker’s womanist credo seems exemplified in the words and the passions of Shug. Walker’s literature and life work have been an expression of splendour and love of life. But they have also arisen from Walker’s immersion in the stuff of lamentation, outcry, blues.

ARCHETYPAL PATTERNS IN CONTEMPORARY DYSTOPIA

ARCHETYPAL PATTERNS IN CONTEMPORARY DYSTOPIA

Author(s): Ileana Botescu-Sireţeanu / Language(s): English Issue: 26/2021

The present paper situates its concerns at the crossroads of literary studies, anthropology and the theory of culture in order to investigate how contemporary dystopian literature employs archaic structures in order to subvert the authority and authenticity of grand narratives such as mythology and religion. In this respect, the present study looks at two particular instances of contemporary Canadian fiction, Margaret Atwood’s iconic dystopia, The Handmaid’s Tale, and Michael Ondaatje’s more discreet The English Patient, as they appear to be complementary in illustrating how the use of culturally consecrated archetypal patterns is directed towards demythologizing and eventually dismantling the Western cultural narrative. Departing from classical anthropological theories, this paper argues that contemporary dystopia incorporates archetypal structures in a subversive, yet totally pertinent challenge of old idols. Thus, the disenchantment of the world and of experience is paradoxically achieved, once more, through storytelling.

NATURALISTIC SIMILARITIES IN ROMANIAN AND GERMAN LITERATURE

NATURALISTIC SIMILARITIES IN ROMANIAN AND GERMAN LITERATURE

Author(s): Oana Carina Cîrcu (Crișan) / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 30/2022

The naturalist current has its origin in France and has developed throughout Europe. In terms of Romanian and German literature, the naturalism first appears in Germany and then in Romania. The similarities between the two literary manifestations are: family disasters, the city, the collective character, the environment, the decadence, the degeneration, reality fiction correspondence, the death, the representation of the female character, the heredity, the disease and the music.

GURA SATULUI REVIEW - ROMANIAN LANGUAGE LITERARY PLATFORM IN ARAD

GURA SATULUI REVIEW - ROMANIAN LANGUAGE LITERARY PLATFORM IN ARAD

Author(s): Diana Bunaciu / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 30/2022

The Gura Satului review, the first satire and humor publication issued in Arad in March 1871 after moving it’s headquarters from Pesta, came to the fore at the turn of the XXth century, as a publishing national and local landmark. The magazine does more than making fun, by holding on to thorough principles accomplished by its copy editors and contributors despite numerous drawbacks such as the censorship imposed by the foreign rulers or financial worries. For 17 years (1871-1879; 1881; January 1890; 1901-1903; 1912-1914; 1934) the magazine was for the people in Arad, a catalyst of Romanian intellectual creativity by publishing both written literature and folklore, promoting young writers and cultural soirees, and a means for reflecting those times’ reality tackled in satire and humor, in a period in which the Transylvanian history suffered numerous social and political convulsions. Last but not least, Gura Satului played an important role not only in entertainment by publishing humor literature, anecdotes, jokes but it also played a moralizing role by condemning social flaws with the aid of satire and pamphlet. But, above all, Gura Satului was a literary platform that stimulated creativity and the inclination towards literature, the reception and dissemination of the written text in Romanian language, the approach to different literary species.

SPACE, TIME AND DREAM –IMAGINARY BOUNDS IN AN INTERDISCIPLINARY APPROACH

SPACE, TIME AND DREAM –IMAGINARY BOUNDS IN AN INTERDISCIPLINARY APPROACH

Author(s): Alice Jurcoveț / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 31/2022

The purpose of this article is to highlight connections between elements related to space, time and dream, using interdisciplinarity. Thus, we will illustrate the notions illustrated above in fine art, in a branch of rock music - gothic and black metal, and literature. As for the dream, we addressed the religious and psychoanalytic dimension, along with famous paintings and established songs, belonging to the dark wave style and, of course, Fantasy literature for children. The concepts of space and time create extremely interesting polemics, theories, hypotheses in the disciplines of exact sciences, providing research material, reproduction of reality within the disciplines that belong to the artistic branch. I also associated the concepts with the term "imaginary", as an opening to the opportunity to project worlds or even travel, through the dream, to them and, with the help of the hypnotic power of music, to place ourselves, at least mentally, in a safe space and unaltered by the aggression of the outside world.

THE LIGHTS AND SHADOWS OF TEODOR MAZILU’S SLUM ON THE BIG SCREEN

THE LIGHTS AND SHADOWS OF TEODOR MAZILU’S SLUM ON THE BIG SCREEN

Author(s): Luminița VELKER (COLOPELNIC) / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 32/2023

The article reveals a lesser-known role of the great playwright Teodor Mazilu, that of a screenwriter. Although he has several collaborations with cinematography, the making of the film "Bariera" is representative. We analyzed the motivations that were the basis of the collaboration with the director Mircea Mureșan, possible satisfactions and regrets, the value of the screening, the similarities and differences between the book and the film, the message and the atmosphere created by the film.

EMINESCU AND THE FINE ARTS: RENAISSANCE PAINTINGS

EMINESCU AND THE FINE ARTS: RENAISSANCE PAINTINGS

Author(s): Robert-Andrei Stoica / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 32/2023

This paper analyzed and aimed at identifying the works of art specific to the Renaissance period to which Mihai Eminescu refers in his prose. Eminescu acquired a wide knowledge of fine arts thanks to the period of his studies abroad. Access to European museums, which he visits with Epaminonda Bucevski from Bucovina, will influence Eminescu in his literary prose. Wanting to evoke an era in which art must be reborn, Eminescu demonstrates that the paintings built through prosopography and hypotyposis have an important role in the economy of the text, they constitute micronarratives.
