Transnacionalna ameriška književnost : Aleksandar Hemon in Téa Obreht : doktorska disertacija = Transnational American literature : Aleksandar Hemon and Téa Obreht : doctoral dissertation
Bostič, Nina
The dissertation deals with transnational American literature, more specifically with BosnianAmerican writer Aleksandar Hemon and Serbian-American writer Téa Obreht. Through a historical overview of ...transnationalism and globalization, it first traces the development of transnationalism and literary transnationalism with the transnationalism paradigm in literature to then be able to analyze the writers’ biographies and their literary works in detail. Rather than excluding the postcolonial and transcultural paradigm, the dissertation strives to merge them to arrive at a transnational paradigm that can be applied to an analysis of transnational literary works that are written by migrants and exiles addressing, albeit not exclusively, exile and migrant subjectivities, displacement, loneliness, nostalgia, translingualism and hybrid identities. A new and completed paradigm, therefore, takes into consideration the postcolonial liminal Third Space in which hybrid cultural identities are formed as a result of re-location, an intersection, mixing and permeations of cultures, resulting in both cultures, the host land and the homeland becoming hybridized. The dissertation aims at identifying how identities change as a result of transmigration where special emphasis is given to translingualism. Since both authors originate from former Yugoslavia, the Balkanism paradigm was also researched and applied in the analysis.
