MIGRATION AND IDENTITY IN CONTEMPORARY EUROPEAN LITERATURE

This thesis analyzes migration and identity representation in contemporary European literature, focusing on transnational narratives, cultural hybridity, and identity reconstruction shaped by globalization and sociopolitical change. The study examines how modern European writers portray displacement, belonging, and intercultural interaction through complex narrative strategies that challenge traditional concepts of nation, language, and cultural identity. Particular attention is paid to the emergence of hybrid protagonists, the role of memory and trauma in shaping migrant experience, and the transformation of literary space into a transnational communicative environment.
