Rezumat: | Identity and alterity are among the main issues in the work of the Albanian writer Ismail Kadare. The problem of identity and alterity is mostly dominant in the novels based on historical events from the period of the Ottoman Empire: “The Siege”, “The Palace of dreams”, “The corner of shame” etc. In the works of Ismail Kadare, of special interest is the way the relationships of the Albanians with the others are seen: the foreigners. What is different in his work is the fact that he doesn’t portray in a negative way the others, more specifically the ottoman invaders. In the same way he doesn’t portray in a positive way the Albanians. Kadare tries to create the Albanian identity of the pre-ottoman period through the “eyes of the foreigners”. According to Kadare the Albanian Identity that existed before the Ottoman Invasion, was transformed radically because of the 5 centuries of the Ottoman Occupation. By confronting the Albanians with the others, Kadare tries to highlight the difference that existed between the Albanian and the Ottoman Identity when they first faced each-other. For this reason, the works of Kadare can be considered as a decolonization approach or as an attempt to de-Ottomanisation of the Albanian mentality. This is at the same time an attempt to bring back the Albanian Culture and Society to the European culture and the western civilization. |
