L’œuvre de Mohamed Kacimi, auteur algérien émigré en France en 1982, représente des conflictualités du monde oriental d’aujourd’hui et met en scène des relations entre la civilisation musulmane et d’autres cultures. Notre étude porte sur Le Jour dernier publié en 1996 et La confession d’Abraham de 2000, deux textes qui réécrivent l’histoire du sacrifice d’Abraham en la remplissant de significations actuelles. Nous nous référons également aux essais réunis dans L’Orient après l’amour (2008) dans lesquels l’auteur reprend plusieurs trames abordées dans ses écrits antérieurs. L’objectif que nous visons est double : il s’agit de rendre compte des aspects polémiques et satiriques de l’œuvre qui se concentre sur le rôle de la religion dans la vie politique et sociale de l’Orient. Nous démontrons en même temps que, pour réaliser un modèle de la littérature engagée dans le débat sur l’actualité, Mohamed Kacimi partage certains choix esthétiques avec d’autres auteurs maghrébins. En effet, par les stratégies énonciatives qu’elle adopte, son écriture reste en rapport avec de grandes tendances de la prose maghrébine francophone.

Contemporary culture, shaped by electronic media, is described in the context of the category of hybridity. Such hybridity is manifested in the coexistence and mutual conditioning of the traditional forms of literacy based on print as well as texts produced in an electronic environment. This article discusses V, a multimedia poetry project by Stephanie Strickland, in which print and electronic textuality are purposefully brought together, placing the recipient’s experience in the inter-spaces (in-between) which are thus opened. Issues relating to the materiality of media technologies used by the authors of experimental poetry as well as the question of combining the bodily perception with the architecture of electronic text are particularly important to the matters discussed in the article.

The article reflects upon the way in which writings by W.G. Sebald mediate between the constructing of space and hybridity. Specifically, the function of photography within the narration is analyzed here. In conclusion, photographs, despite their strong referential charge, do not in any way diminish the undoubted textualization of space in Sebald’s works.

Artykuł dotyczy powieści La riva della vita minore włoskiego pisarza syryjskiego pochodzenia, Alessandra Spiny. Powieść przedstawia realia polityczne i społeczne Libii w latach 50. i 60. XX wieku oraz kryzys europejskiej ideologii kolonialnej, której uosobieniem jest postać Pierre’a Dexais’go. Zarazem w książce pojawia się Gérard Conti, młody Francuz, który odrzuca europocentryzm w celu stania się częścią społeczeństwa libijskiego. Podczas gdy Dexais postrzega koniec imperiów kolonialnych jako upadek cywilizacji europejskiej, celem Contiego jest stworzenie dla siebie nowej, hybrydycznej tożsamości. Tekst porusza kwestię kryzysu idei kolonializmu, a także problematyzację tożsamości europejskiej wobec owego kryzysu. Wreszcie podane są przykłady dwóch innych powieści, Asmara addio Erminii Dell’Oro i Ghibli Luciany Capretti, również opisujących zmierzch włoskich kolonii.

What can be said of Pierre Klossowski’s works’ hybridism, he who, philosopher, writer, translator and painter, unabashedly claimed to be a « monomaniac » ? This gap brings about a tension between what we call « hybridism » in his writings (to talk about this sole medium) and a coherence in his « obsessions ». Furthermore, hybridism can be inferred from the variety from which his works take their source and the qualities which the remains of the notion of « subject » inherit. Klossowski’s work, itself a non-cartesian anthropology, calls upon theologians, latin classics, as much as so-called « transgressive » philosophers. Hence hybridism, once coupled with the simulacrum, becomes a guiding thread, kindling the word’s etymology (hybris and ibrida), in an « excessive » and « bastardised » style that does away with any form of identity, be that of the writer itself.

The hybridity that is seen everywhere in symbolist poetry is not so much evidence of a temporary trend of the era following the interest in the crossing of species in nature as much as it is an attempt to confront the very nature of “art” itself. The time of the “quarrel of monsters” has passed, and the hybrids of contemporary poetry – competing for a place in the mythological scene that is symbolism – roam guiltless. And yet, beyond literary conventions, this mythological bestiary is anything but innocent and outdated; in fact, it embodies a genuine mythopoetic repertoire. For Mallarmé in particular, this hybrid bestiary reflects the illusive “Chimera” of poetry.

The aim of this paper is to show how politics, culture and ethnicity interweave in the context of the Rushdie Affair in both the real‑life dimension of the historical events taking place in the late 1980s, as well as the literary dimension of the novel by Hanif Kureishi entitled The Black Album. The paper briefly outlines the Rushdie Affair as it unfolded in the British public sphere with particular emphasis placed on the process of consolidation of the Muslim identity among the representatives of different ethnic groups in Great Britain in the political and cultural context of the event which is deemed to be defining from the point of view of British Muslims. The author of the paper presents the profile of Hanif Kureishi, to indicate why he is ideally positioned to look critically at both sides of the conflict. The paper analyses the novel itself insofar as it examines the implications of the Rushdie Affair depicted in The Black Album, the reactions of the second‑generation immigrants of Pakistani descent in the face of the controversy, the influence this event exerted on the process of their searching for identity as well as their integration into British society. Two opposing identity options taken up by the protagonists of The Black Album are analysed by the author of the paper.

In this paper, I study the narrative structure and the layers of meaning in the Treme (2010-2013), using the concept of rhizome introduced in A Thousand Plateaus by Deleuze and Guattari (1987) and the Hannerzian “root metaphor” of creole culture. As for New Orleans in the Treme, music makes the narrative structure not just multilinear but rhizomatic. Moreover, spontaneity and hybridity highlight dialogicity and poliphony as well as a strong ironic and subversive capacity concerning music and creole culture. On a narratological level, analysing the critical representation of social problems after the destruction of Hurricane Kathrina raises the problems of focalization and narratorial distance

The article discusses the immigrant experience of America in The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Díaz and analyses it with the use of the neobaroque esthetics. The paper seeks to present neobaroque elements present in the text, such as hybridity and the tension between the center and the peripheries to show that neobaroque poetics can be successfully employed to talk about the experience of exile, the migrant condition and the search for identity.

In the text I will focus on Zenitist poetry by Ljubomir Micić and Branko Ve Poljanski. I will construe a new discursive framework, which will make it possible for us to understand their multigenre  texts  as important  items  in  the  national poetry  canon.  I  will  contextualize  the general characteristics of European avant-garde poetry practices, which were used by Micic and Poljanski in order to interpret the specific place of Zenitism as a general Balkan avantgarde movement, participating in a significant way in the European and world avant-garde.

This article is a review of the book "Poetyka migracji" [The Poetics of Migration] edited by Przemysław Czapliński, Renata Makarska and Marta Tomczok (Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Śląskiego, Katowice 2013). This post-conference volume is of transcultural nature (contains texts of Polish and German authors), and focuses around the issues of the metamorphosis of the phenomenon of emigration into the phenomenon of migrationality. The review, beside the summary of a part of the content of the volume, includes conclusions concerning the importance of theoretical models proposed there and the universalizing role of the term “migration” in anthropologically oriented humanities.

This article argues that David Clark’s digital biography 88 Constellations for Wittgenstein (to be played with the Left Hand) (2008) meets all the criteria of a writerly/plural text as defined by Roland Barthes in S/Z (1970). The discussion focuses on the interactive and reversible structure of Clark’s work, as well as on the plurality and hybridity of its components. The experimental form of Wittgenstein’s biography is examined as an attempt to capture the elusiveness and the contradictions of its subject.

The protagonist-narrator of Viet Thanh Nguyen’s novel, as he often repeats, is a person of two minds. As the child of a Vietnamese woman and a French Catholic priest, he becomes a „hybrid” on the genetic level and later also in the cultural sphere. His upbringing has not only been influenced by the Catholic religion, communist indoctrination but also by the American literary canon, as he has graduated from a literary studies program in the US. He is a communist spy in the South Vietnamese Army during the war, and after the fall of South Vietnam he escapes to the United States as one of the few refugees. Loyal to the communist revolution in the US, he continues his intelligence activities going to any lengths and using any means considered necessary. The nameless narrator is not only a character that reminds a hero from a Hollywood action movie, but also a hybrid – a man who, through diversity or perhaps the merging of mutually exclusive identities, inhabits the sphere in between. This phenomenon, called nepantlerismo by Gloria Anzaldúa, means consciously navigating the gaps between the binary oppositions of those who belong to neither of the two sides. In the article, I look at the phenomenon of hybridity and consider to what measure it can be seen as an antidote to national chauvinism, imperialism and violence. I also examine what Viet Thanh Nguyen in his scholarly work calls the „industrialization of memory,” viewing Hollywood as a tool for producing memories of the Vietnam War operating within the US military-industrial complex.

Hybridity and the linguistic landscapeThis article argues that a linguistic landscape can be considered a hybrid when many languages and scripts simultaneously work within it. Being heterogeneous, urban signage (shop signs, business signs, outdoor advertising etc.) is open to hybridization, particularly in moments of historical and geopolitical transformation and at the intersections of different cultures. Analysing the linguistic landscape of Kiev’s Podil district, conscious, unconscious, explicit, and implicit hybridity are identified and examined. Linguistic hybridity, as an element of cultural hybridity, is closely related to everyday practices associated with work, food, clothes, hygiene, health, leisure, etc. Organic/unconscious and intentional/conscious forms of hybridization occur in linguistic creativity. The article shows that three languages (Ukrainian, Russian, and English), and two scripts (Latin and Cyrillic), participate in the hybridization process, and examples are cited. During the Soviet period, Russian was the dominant language in Ukraine and Kiev. The Soviet authorities reinforced Russian and weakened Ukrainian. The consequences of this colonial policy can be observed today, and one can see these results in the Ukrainian-Russian hybrid city-text. Since the restoration of Ukrainian independence in 1991, Ukraine has transformed from a post-colonial state to a European state, and has become part of a globalized world which uses English as a lingua franca. The effects of this transformation are visible in the linguistic landscape in the form of Ukrainian-Russian-English, Ukrainian-English, and Russian-English hybrid signs. Hybrydyzacja i krajobraz językowyArtykuł dotyczy problemu językowej hybrydyzacji przestrzeni publicznej. Krajobraz językowy współczesnego miasta można uznać za hybrydę, gdy jednocześnie funkcjonuje w nim wiele języków. Ze swej natury oznakowanie miejskie (szyldy sklepowe, znaki handlowe, reklama zewnętrzna itp.) jest otwarte na hybrydyzację, szczególnie w momentach historycznej i geopolitycznej transformacji oraz na skrzyżowaniu różnych kultur. Analiza krajobrazu językowego kijowskiego Podola pokazuje, że istnieje w niej świadoma i nieświadoma, jawna i ukryta hybryda. Hybrydyczność językowa – jako część hybrydowej kultury – jest ściśle związana z codziennymi praktykami związanymi z pracą, nauką, jedzeniem, odzieżą, higieną, zdrowiem, wypoczynkiem i nie tylko. Organiczne/nieświadome i celowe/świadome formy hybrydyzacji przejawiają się w twórczości językowej. Na procesy hybrydyzacji w Kijowie na Podole mają swój udział trzy języki: ukraiński, rosyjski i angielski oraz dwa alfabety: łaciński i cyrylica. Jako dziedzictwo kolonialnej przeszłości w przestrzeni publicznej Podola istnieje segment hybrydowego ukraińsko-rosyjskiego tekstu miejskiego. Od 1991 roku, w wyniku transformacji państwa postkolonialnego w państwo europejskie, Ukraina stała się częścią zglobalizowanego świata, w którym angielski jest używany jako lingua franca. Efekty tej transformacji są widoczne w krajobrazie językowym w postaci znaków hybrydowych ukraińsko-rosyjsko-angielskich, ukraińsko-angielskich i rosyjsko-angielskich.

Poetical project by Sorbian poet Róža Domašcyna fits into the category of „minor literature”, coined by  F.  Guattari  and  G.  Deleuze  in  1975.  Despite  its  inevitably  political,  ecological  and ideological local connotations, it is rooted in the experience of modernity, still unpopular among the contemporary Sorbian writers. Its main topics are: the devastation of Lusatian environment, erotic and cultural hybridity. Domašcyna uses the hybrid nature of Sorbian identity to create an post-modern subject, conscious of the non-transparent nature of language. The result is an original poetry, which suits the current comparative and postcolonial categories of interpretation.

James’s letter does not concern itself with the nature of humanity in the abstract. His message regarding the trials of Jewish messianists distributed outside the land of the Jews leads him rather to explore the perplexing paradox of the human predicament-called to faithful life patterns, to love of God and neighbor, on the one hand, overwhelmed by craving and sin, on the other hand. This undergirds a profound analysis of the human condition as well as its remedy in God’s true word.

This article examines Hélène Cixous’s biographical monograph The Exile of James Joyce as a limit case of biographical praxis. Joyce’s biography is read in the context of Cixous’s own evolving personal motif of exile, revealing her autobiographical investment in becoming a writer through reading Joyce. She pushes the boundaries of the biographical genre at the intersections of autobiography, literary criticism, and biography, defying simple generic classifications and exposing the limits of conventional demarcations between the artist, the work, the biographer, and the critic. As a result, the text becomes a creative-interpretive hybrid project, where the biographical code has been displaced by focus on epistemological, psychological, and textual problems implicit in the rela­tionship between the biographer and the biographical subject. Her approach invites us to consider the following questions: How does she rewrite Joyce through her own multiple experiences of exile that she also shares with Jacques Derrida? What difference does gender make in the construction of the biographical subject as the great modernist “genius”? How does gender marginalization impact her authority as a biographer? The discussion is also framed through some larger questions concerning the aesthetic, epistemological, ethical, and political role of biography in approaching modernist literature and culture: Is biography an art or a craft? What kind of knowledge does biography generate? How far is biography a form of discursive violence and voyeurism? How can attention to affect and intimacy offer new insights into the aesthetics of the biographical genre?

In this paper, I analyze the concept of liminality and the negative collateral consequences it might bring to the liminal and hybrid character. The definition of liminality is goingto be analyzed as the most characteristic trait of Pauline Puyat’s personality, a mixed- blood character in Louise Erdrich’s Tracks. As a half-breed female, Pauline belongs to both and to none of the two traits that make up her identity. This duality causes in her many contradictory sentiments of isolation, loneliness and jealousy that will gradually disturb her mind and, eventually, she will act in an incoherent manner. By having two identities, Pauline is expected to enjoy her multicultural frame. Contrarily, Pauline Puyat’s liminality and hybridity affects her own self and, at some points, others’.
