future perception of the other

Abstract

Zavedajoč se, da je književnost, hkrati pa tudi način poučevanja književnosti, način razumevanja in spreminjanja družbe, sem pred tremi leti na Univerzi v Novem Sadu (Filozofska fakulteta, Oddelek za srbsko književnost) pripravila predmet z naslovom "Podobe drugih v srbski in hrvaški književnosti 19. in 20. stoletja", gradivo za predmet pa je bilo natisnjeno tudi v knjižni obliki (Self-portraits - imagological variations, Novi Sad 2004). Predmet so neposredno navdahnile "študije podob". Dobro je znano, da književnost pomaga pri ustvarjanju in izražanju narodne identitete, imagološki pristop pa upošteva notranje delovanje besedila in njegovo interakcijo s sobesedilom. Joep T. Leerssen definira študije podob kot "preučevanje narodnih in etničnih stereotipov in literarnega prikaza medkulturnih spopadov" (Leerssen 1991: 128). Literarno izražanje narodnih stereotipov, ki ga najdemo v izbranih literarnih besedilih za predmet (Nenadović, Lazarević, Vinaver, Crnjanski, Nemčić, Matoš, Kamov, Begović itd.), je pri pouku služilo kot izhodišče za dialog o različnih temah: kako gradimo pripoved za druge in zase (heteropodobe proti avtopodobe), kako se v literarnih delih opisuje tujca, kakšen je odnos med književnostjo in "zgodovinskim spominom" itd. Ker lahko na predavalnico gledamo kot na "kraj, kjer se poraja kultura" (Hardcastle 1985), sem skušala krepiti "kulturo primerjave", "zavedanje razlik" in "kulturo dialoga".

Secondary abstract:	Bearing in mind that literature, and hence the way of teaching it, is a way of understanding and changing society, three years ago at the University of Novi Sad (Faculty of Philosophy, Department of Serbian Literature) I prepared the course "Images of the Other in 19th and 20th Century Serbian and Croatian Literature", which also appeared in book form (Self-portraits - imagological variations, Novi Sad 2004). The course was directly inspired by "image studies". It is well known that literature also helps in the creation and expression of national identity; and an imagological approach takes into consideration the internal workings of the text and its interaction with the context. Joep T. Leerssen defines image studies as "the study of national and ethnic stereotypes and of the literary representation of intercultural confrontation" (Leerssen 1991: 128). The literary articulation of national stereotypes found in selected literary texts for the course (Nenadović, Lazarević, Vinaver, Crnjanski, Nemčić, Matoš, Kamov, Begović, etc.) served as a starting point for dialogue in the classroom on different topics: how do we construct narratives for others and for ourselves (hetero-images versus auto-images), how does literature depict the foreigner, what is the relation between literature and "historical memory", etc. Since classrooms can be seen as "sites of cultural making" (Hardcastle 1985), I was attempting to cultivate "a culture of comparison", "an awareness of difference" and "a culture of dialogue"
