Il Daghestan oltre l'orientalismo sovietico: il romanzo Prazdničnaja gora di Alisa Ganieva / V. Marcati. - In: ESAMIZDAT. - ISSN 1723-4042. - 2021:14(2021 Dec 31), pp. 59-76.
Abstract:
The frst part of the work considers the concept of Soviet orientalism in relation to socialist realism, especially focusing on the phenomenon of the so-called Soviet multinational literature and the Ciscaucasian Soviet novel. In the second part, Alisa Ganieva's novel Prazdnichnaia gora [The Mountain of Celebrations, 2012] is analysed as a case study. It is argued that, besides being an example of the Soviet orientalist discourse, the parody of the socialist realist novel in its Dagestani version serves as a tool to deconstruct the Soviet representation of Dagestan. Indeed, through parody and multi-voicedness, Ganieva shows the Dagestani past and contemporaneity from an alternative perspective, thus oering a new way to narrate Dagestan.
