Popis: | Postkolonijalna teorija i kritika bavi se književnošću bivših kolonijalnih zemalja, ponajviše zemalja takozvanog Trećeg svijeta. Studiji postkolonijalne književnosti u širem smislu te riječi teže istraživanju iskustava, procesa i posljedica europskoga kolonijalizma kao i reakcija na njega od 16. stoljeća pa sve do suvremenih reakcija. Pojam Drugi u suvremenoj je teoriji gledan iz različitih perspektiva, ali širu primjenu doživljava s poststrukturalizmom. Svako razdoblje i svako društvo iznova stvara svoju drugost. Ideja o drugosti odvija se kao odraz u kojem gledajući Druge možemo vidjeti sebe, kako u svemu tako i u književnosti. U hrvatskoj se književnosti javljaju etničke, rodne, jezične i političke drugosti. Kao primjer za obradu pojma drugosti u hrvatskoj suvremenoj književnosti izabrani su romani Ciganin, ali najljepši Kristiana Novaka i Crnac Tatjane Gromače. U oba romana pronađeno je više elemenata drugosti ponajviše kroz literarne predodžbe stereotipa i predrasuda Kroz Novakov roman prikazan je odnos različitih ljudi koji se međusobno doživljavaju kao Drugi i problem jedne manjine koju predstavlja glavni lik, a kroz Gromačin roman prikazan je junakinjin mikrosvijet od djetinjstva preko odrastanja i susret s problemima drugosti kroz njezin vlastiti doživljaj. Postcolonial literary theory and criticism focus on the literatures from formerly colonized countries, primarily the so-called Third World. In the broad sense of the term, postcolonial studies aim to explore the experiences, processes, and consequences of European colonialism, as well as reactions to it from the 16th century until today. Contemporary literary theory looks at the term Other from different perspectives, while its wider use begins with Poststructuralism. Each period and each society creates its own otherness anew. The idea of otherness presents a reflection in which one can see themself while looking at the Other, in literature as much as in everything else. In Croatian literarure, there is ethnic, gender, linguistic, and political othering. Representations of otherness in contemporary Croatian literature were analysed in two novels: Ciganin, ali najljepši by Kristian Novak and Crnac by Tatjana Gromača. Several elements of otherness were found in both novels, mostly in literary representations of stereotypes and prejudices. Relationships between different people who perceive each other as Others and problems of a minority represented by the protagonist were explored through examples from Novak’s novel, while Gromača’s novel showed the hero’s microcosm from childhood through coming of age and her experience with the problem of otherness. |
