Sažetak
This article focuses on problems of the phenomenon of evil in contemporary literary texts from Croatian, Serbian and Korean corpus. The emphasis is on the interpretation and reconstruction of the phenomenon of evil and study of difference in approaching the problem in modern and postmodern texts. In contextual frame, very important are the problems of relation between margin and centre, namely the questions of genealogy and poetics as important discursive issues of a diachronic approach to literature. Also considered is the topic of “small”, marginal literatures in their dynamic relationship towards the “centre”. Authors considered in the interpretative part of the article are Josip Mlakić and Luka Bekavac from Croatian corpus; Hang Kang and Young-ha Kim from Korean; and Filip David and Đorđe Lebović from Jewish Serbian corpus. The article’s hypothesis is that there are two paradigms that coexist in contemporary culture: one is focused on preserving the memory (and is related to modernist poetics) and the other one on poetics of forgetting (which is the post-modern approach). In the article the author further argues that the neo-modernistic poetics (of reconstructing the memory and constructing a historical collectiveness) is in many respects re-introducing the idea of “world literature” and the new dynamics of “uneven development” of the global understanding of the idea of literature.
