Název v původním jazyce

?Memory of the Landscape: Resurrection of Past and Community in Works of Wilson Harris.?

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The Guyanese author Wilson Harris faces one of the most problematic issues of contemporary socio-cultural tradition ? understanding of history or alleged 'historylessness' of postcolonial communities of the Caribbean area. His approach to history and past in general is diametrically different from the dominant Western approach with its chronological understanding of time and stability/fixity of space. In accord with ideas of quantum physics, Harris embraces the paradoxical nature of universe and casts doubts at the hegemonic perception of 'reality'. Individual as well as collective memory (conscious and unconscious/intuitive) is one of the vital tools for the creation of identity and placing oneself within the universe. Harris embraces the immense imaginative power of art with its ability to incorporate various forms of memory which possesses the creative potential leading to positive change in our perception of the universe ? especially understanding of the 'Other'.
