The focus of the present article is on Czesław Miłosz poetry in which the Nobel Prize winner returns to his childhood places and people who played a significant role in the formation of his personality and identity. The poet links specific sides of his personality with his birthplace, Szetejnie on the River Nevezis, located “in the heart of Lithuania”. In his poetry, Miłosz devotes special attention to his mother, Weronika, from the Kunat family, and pays less attention to his father. He also remembers his grandfather Zygmunt Kunat, his wife Janina and other distant relatives. Miłosz creates the image of home and family through detailed poetic descriptions evoking at times episodes of a close relationship with his family members. Thus, the poet intends to express his appreciation for places that he is part of and gratitude to those who contributed to his existence in time, his formation and journey to eternity.

Prix Nobel de littérature 2008, le prolifique Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio est considéré comme un écrivain majeur dès la parution de son premier roman Le Procès-verbal, pour lequel on lui décernera le Prix Renaudot en 1963. Tout à la fois roman de la régression et de la quête initiatique, Le Procès-verbal préfigure les thématiques qui seront développées par la suite dans l’ensemble de son œuvre. Le présent article en propose une lecture psycho-mythique fondée sur la poétique bachelardienne, la symbolique alchimique et la psychologie jungienne.AbstractProlific author and 2008 Nobel Prize winner in literature, Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio was immediately recognized as a major writer with his first novel Le Procès-verbal, for which he received the Prix Renaudot in 1963. In many regards, Le Procès-verbal became a preview of — and reflects — the themes explored and developed in the whole of his future writings. Using Bachelard’s poetic, alchemist symbolism and Jungian psychology as a foundation for interpretation, this article offers a psycho-mythological reading of Le Clézio's first important contribution to literature.

The article deals with the history of Turkish emigration to Germany in the 20th-21st Cent. This is in a way a novelty both in the modern Turkish literature as well as in the studies, which analyze the reflection of this process in modern Turkish literature. For the first time, this topic was raised in the 1940s, in the novel by Sabahattin Ali (1907–1948), who had been studying in pre-war Germany for some time/ Based on his personal impressions and recollections he wrote a love/political novel “Madonna clade in a fur coat” (1943). Subsequently this topic was also raised in the works by Füruzan (born 1932) and the Turkish Nobel Prize winner Orhan Pamuk (born 1952). The present article discusses the phenomenon of transformation of either personal or somebody else’s experience as reflected by a number of Turkish authors. This fact has ultimately shaped the acute problems as discussed in the Turkish literature and was instrumental for the formation of a whole trend in the modern Turkish literature, i.e. the Turkish émigré literature (Emine Sevgi Özdamar, (born 1946)). The aim of the article is to show the trends in the modern Turkish literature, which preceded the making of the literature of the Turkish diaspora abroad.

AbstractThis article examines the unfolding of interaction in a growing and, so far, scarcely examined social and cultural practice – interpreter-mediated public literary conversations. In this context, the activity of interpreters, although indispensable when authors and audiences do not share a common language, is sometimes regarded as a “necessary evil” that allegedly causes delays and information loss. Exploring an interpreter-mediated public literary conversation with Nobel Laureate Svetlana Alexievich as a case in point, the focus of this article is rather on what the presence of an interpreter might add to the shared performance on stage. Attention is drawn to the temporal evolvement of the interlocutor’s communicative resources, evident within narrative sequences, drawing on prosody research and research on gestures. The study suggests that, apart from keeping the non-Russian speaking audience updated on content, the interpreter’s rhythmically calibrated performance adds an energizing asset to the event as a whole. The notion of the “coupled turn”, internally hosting gestural and prosodic coherence across topical boundaries and language frame shifts, emerges as a usable unit for the analysis.
