Dark Mother Earth
An amnesiac writer's life of lies and false memories reaches a breaking point in this stunning English-language debut from an award-winning Croatian author. As a novelist, Matija makes things up for a living. Not yet thirty, he's written two well-received books. It's his third that is as big a failure as his private life. Unable to confine his fabrications to fiction, he's been abandoned by his girlfriend over his lies. But all Matija has is invention. Especially when it comes to his childhood and the death of his father. Whatever happened to Matija as a young boy, he can't remember. He feels frightened, angry, and responsible... Now, after years of burying and reinventing his past, Matija must confront it. Longing for connection, he might even win back the love of his life. But discovering the profound fears he has suppressed has its risks. Finally seeing the real world he emerged from could upend it all over again.
Ciganin, Ali Najljepsi
Ciganin, ali najljepsi jest strogo zanrovski gledano krimic, s enigmom, brutalnim ubojstvima nepoznatih - jer leseve bez lica tesko je identificirati - i istragom, i lijep pokazatelj da se stvari ne smiju strogo gledati, ni suditi, jer je krimic koliko i Zlocin i kazna. Ciganina je ispripovijedalo, preciznije kazalo jer uglavnom citamo krnje transkripte, cak cetvero pripovjedaca: Milena, sredovjecna povratnica u rodni Sabolscak, Nuzat, Kurd iz Mosula na putu za Calais, Sandokan zvan Sandi, Ciganin iz Bukova Dola, i Plancic, PR iz Policijske uprave zagrebacke.
Cigány létére
Kristian Novak regénye műfaji értelemben krimi, középpontjában egy rejtélyes, embertelenül brutális leszámolás áll, és a nyomozás folyamata. A felzaklató történet négy elbeszélő vallomásaiból áll össze, akik mindnyájan „szökésben” vannak. A kurd Nuzat családját odahagyva Moszulból Calais-ba tart, a lakóhelyét feldúló iszlám terrorizmus elől menekül. A negyvenéves Milenának, válása és állása elvesztése után, vissza kell térnie szülőfalujába, Sabolščakba. Itt ismerkedik meg a húszéves cigány fiúval, Szandival, aki a nyomorból és a kiszolgáltatottságból próbál kiutat keresni egy jobb élet felé. Plančić, a zágrábi rendőrs...

Language and Culture in the Intercultural World
The intensification of contacts between cultures and languages has a major impact on all social spheres today. Multiculturalism and multilingualism are important elements of the local, regional, national and global community. Much of the world’s conflict stems from the contrast between globalization and nationalism, fuelled by religions, racial divisions, traditions and other cultural particularities. Focusing mainly on the situation in Central and South-eastern Europe, this book addresses how cultural identities develop through tourism, education, literature and other social fields, and how language and literature teaching should be planned in this context. It consists of the following sections: Language, Culture and Tourism; Interculturalism, Multilingualism and Approaches to Language Learning; and Culture in Literature and Translation. The volume will be of interest to teachers and researchers of cultural and tourism studies, linguistics and language learning, literary studies and translation, while also addressing wider readers interested in contemporary intercultural society.
Terre, mère noire
Inventer des histoires, c’est ce que Matija, écrivain à succès, sait faire le mieux. Mais après un mensonge de trop, sa petite amie le quitte. Que s’est-il donc réellement passé lors de son enfance dans le petit village du Medjimurje pour que Matija ne se rappelle plus de rien ? Terre, mère noire nous entraîne au cœur des frayeurs et des songes d’une enfance à la veille des guerres de Yougoslavie, dépeignant un monde où la détresse intime répond à la cruauté d’une société qui ne cache plus ses défaillances. La seule réaction possible : une imagination sans bornes regorgeant d’humour noir. Auteur européen incontournable, Kristian Novak explore l’écart entre r...
An den Rändern der Literatur. Dokument und Literatur in zentraleuropäischen Kulturen
Die Integration der Dokumente wird als eine Geste der Spaltung betrachtet, die das Zusammenspiel der faktischen und fiktionalen Wahrheitsbehauptungen in literarischen Texten hervorhebt (Riffaterre, 1990). Dadurch kommen der dokumentarische Anspruch auf Glaubwürdigkeit und die Literarizität des Textes in Widerspruch. Daher ist die erste Prämisse des Bandes die Auswirkung des dokumentarischen Paktes (Foley, 1986) auf die Bestimmung der Literatur. Die betonte Referenzfunktion der Dokumentarliteratur führt zum ständigen Überschreiten der Grenze zwischen Fakt und Fiktion, wobei sich diese Grenze als instabil erweist und die Realität transfiguriert (A. Danto). Um die unterschiedlichen Auspr...
