The Reception of the Novel "Submission" by Michel Houellebecq: the Invisibility of the Defeated University

Summary/Abstract: The reception of the novel Submission by Michel Houellebecq began even before its publication and was further stimulated by the terror attack on the offices of Charlie Hebdo magazine. Following this macabre event, it naturally pervaded from European into Serbian mass media. The media’s perception of the novel was then seamlessly perpetuated in the critical reviews. The majority of these reviews of Houellebecq’s novel focus on the bond between politics and religion, seeing that this interaction is – due to its controversy – an inexhaustible source of interest for mass media. Yet, in his visions of the near future, Houellebecq foretells a further entrenchment of the existing system rather than its radical negation or transformation,as pointed out throughout the novel, by the author himself.
