Conștiința etnică identitară. Supraviețuirea prin cuvânt în volumul Trotineta lui Edi de Bedros Horasangian [Articol]

Abstract

In our paper we will focus on one of the less approached aspects of literary criticism, that of the Armenian ethnic identity. We aim at identifying aspects of the ethnic components and analyzing how the Armenian ethnic consciousness influences the way Bedros Horasangian writes. Is his ethnicity relevant? And if so, are there direct marks or does the idea of belonging to an ethnic minority manifest itself vaguely? Moreover, for whom does Bedros Horasangian write? For Armenians, for Romanians, or is it a unitary discourse, addressable to anyone and anytime, given that the message of his texts aims at the depths of human nature? Here are just a few questions that we will strive to find an answer to in our analysis.
