Gyarmatosítók és gyarmatosítottak. A posztkolonialitás néhány vajdasági metaforája
The Colonizer and the Colonized. Variations on Postcolonial Discourse in Hungarian Literature in Vojvodina

Summary/Abstract: According to the interpretation of postcolonial theory, postcolonialism is a complex intercultural system; the interaction of cultures does not materialize in the European-non-European dichotomy, and it is sustainable not only in cultures with colonial past but can be extended to all those cultures where the national self-representation is the product of the interaction of several cultures. In the recent years, views which fi nd it also possible to study minority literatures with the system of viewpoints of postcolonial theory seem to gain ground. The study takes its examples from Hungarian literature in Vojvodina, which beyond the postcolonial view - which can be defi ned in the relation of the self-defi nitions of place, language and subject, - also use the metaphors of colonialism to defi ne their identity, and yet, at the same time they often differ from the stereotypes of colonialism.
