Stereotipo dello straniero e personaggi tedeschi nella letteratura russa: alcune riflessioni metodologiche e interpretative
Abstract
Russian literature features a diverse array of German characters, drawing on popular cul- ture stereotypes of German-speaking immigrants to the Russian Empire. Writers such as N. Gogol, A. Pushkin, F. Dostoevsky, and N. Leskov transform traditional stylistic elements and clichés, enriching them with new meanings related to their artistic concepts. This cultural process is closely intertwined with the construction of national identity, as the portrayal of the Other (i.e. the German) serves as a benchmark in shaping the Russian Self.
