This paper explores the question of autobiographical discourse in the work "Аutobiography" by Marko Cepenkov. Firstly, we will determine the basic theoretical settings according to which a text can ...be said to be autobiographical or it contains autobiographical elements. Then, we will specifically indicate the presence of the explicit and implicit techniques or elements in certain works that are used by the author in addition to which his work can be called an "autobiographical text". Even though his theoretical model will be used, in the same time the inconsistencies in this model will be indicated as well as its modification in the literary works of autobiographical discourse. In that context, the "Autobiography" by Marko Cepenkov will be reviewed, in which, joining the private and the socially-public, depicted through the whole relevant Balkan situation in that time, he created a specific autobiographical – biographical discourse of memoirs. In that manner, the uncertain theoretical status of autobiography will be confirmed, the previous definition of autobiography as "dogmatic" will be unmasked and a notion that autobiography cannot be seen isolated from the other genres will be created, i.e. the existence of hybrid genres will be confirmed.
Starting from Marianne Hirsch’s thesis that the notion of postmemory can be generalised in various contexts of traumatic transfer, this paper aims to elaborate on the interpretive validity of this ...concept in relation to the so-called Aegean Theme in Macedonian literature, that is, the theme of collective trauma caused by the exodus of Macedonian from Greece during the Greek Civil War (1944-1949). The subject of interest are the two works - Egejci and Snegot vo Kazablanka - by Macedonian authoress Kica Kolbe, member of the so-called post-generation. Considering that both books are of different genres—autobiography and novel—the analysis offers a comparative presentation of the narrative conventions taking part in the affirmation of their postmemorial dimension present in: the variant of postmemory, the elements of secondariness and of mediativeness of postmemory, as well as the postmemorial relation to the past through imagination, projection and creation.
In this paper, we refer to a polemic from 1898 in which the teacher Evtimica Jancheva from the town of Voden took part. The polemic developed as a response to two texts in which the authors ...criticised women, especially teachers, for their attitude towards fashion and work. Jancheva's extensive text, published in the newspaper Novini, in the section Correspondence, defends the right of women to be teachers, to follow the latest fashion trends, etc. In this way, the article by Evtimica Jancheva is the first registered polemical writing in Macedonian literature, in which a woman had taken part, while Evtimca Jancheva is considered to be the first Macedonian woman to take part in a public polemic.
This article presents 21st-century Macedonian prose as it appears in contemporary Polish translation. Novels and stories by Macedonian authors are evidence of the great degreee to which this ...literature has recently developed. Topics under consideration include an analysis of the fine quality of modern Macedonian prose, as well as the high attainment of its Polish translators, who, using their own translation strategies, successfully transfer one cultural code to another.
In this article we focus on the literary work of the prominent Macedonian writer
Olivera Nikolova, the Great Lady of the “small” Macedonian literature. Among other things, Olviera Nikolova is the ...first Macedonian writer who has recognized in Cepenkov’s output the enormous drama/theatrical potentials and the first who managed to articulate those potentials in a superior way in the drama form.
The paper explored the issue of the differences between the forced and the
voluntary exile both as а historically (forced) and as an arbitrary (subjective) caused trauma to the subject on the other ...side of the homeland (beyond the national border). Trauma means unrootedness (forced exile) and homelessness (voluntary exile) of the subject. Those are conditions that in different ways cause consequences on human existence, on the de/reconstruction of identity and on the existential framework of identification. From the analyzed works/novels Egejci (Aegeans) by Kica Bardzieva-Kolbe and Crno seme (A Black Seed) by Tashko Georgievski, it was concluded that the exile (both forced and voluntary) is a kind of signature of human existence, the articulations of the homelessness are an authentic indicator of human identity and thenegative modalities of homemaking (unrootedness) radically change the existential framework of identification from the aspect of postcolonial theory.
