Open guest lecture: Katalin G. Kállay, Ph.D.

The lecture will juxtapose a 19th and a 20th century short story from the point of view of the protagonists' sense of belonging. After a short introduction concerning the genre of the short story and its importance in American literature, we will focus on the two texts, discovering similarities and differences in their symbolic representation of time, nature, human community and individual identity. The notion of displacement and its role in an identity crisis will be examined in both stories.
