Putovanje i reprezentacije identiteta i alteriteta u dječjem romanu od početka 20. st. do 1941.
Travel narratives and representations of identity and alterity in a children's novel from the beginning of the 20th century to 1941

Summary/Abstract: The intention of this paper is to research how travel narratives construct representations of identity and alterity in selected children's novels published from 1907. to 1941. The paper aims contextualised, local and political reading instead of pedagogical or impressionist-esthetical approach. A main thesis is that production of knowledge through discursive practices constitutes identity or alterity of characters as well as the knowledge depends on relations of power and its distribution within social and cultural field. Thus, I differentiate, using R. Williams's terminology, residual, dominant and emergent forms of discursive practices that product identity and alterity in analysed novels.
