Abstract

Starting from the theoretical descriptions of heterobiography (Lucia Boldrini), this text aims to interpret the novel Conversation with Spinoza by the Macedonian writer Goce Smilevski as a paradigmatic heterobiography in contemporary Macedonian prose. The interpretive focus is placed on three levels: 1 on the narrative procedures in the novel; 2 on genre and interdiscursive transgressions between fiction and history, between literature and philosophy, and ontological transgressions between worlds and texts; 3 on the ethical implications of heterobiography through the prism of the ethical and legal responsibility of the author to “borrow” the voice of another historical person.
