Fusion of Genres in the Novel “Sunce o desno rame” by Alija Isaković

Abstract

The modernity and specificity of the novel "Sunce o desno rame” is seen through consciuous violation of structural principles of a realistic novel, characterized by critic reduction and rejection of traditional narration as integral model of romanesque mimetic representation and narration in interest of the dialogue. The critic of narrative models is based on problematizing of genre margins, narration subject and event time logic by emphasizing the interest for the story. Chronological narration with its clear plot is missing and it has its own stream. Dialog narration is realized and in its portrayal it tends to poetics, so on the basic of the structural model, it can be considered an innovative lunge in our novels evolution. Genre pluralism is built by fragmentation and collage which open the whirl of dynamic life where everything is happening right now and here in front of the audience. Wishing to realize his own visions and esthetics, Isaković searches for border values of narration and incits constant play with genres, using and collage the already existing forms of narrative discourse at the same time.
