‘Progressista’, ‘fantastico’ e/o ‘postmoderno’? I Calvini estoni dal Dopoguerra al nuovo Millennio
Italo Calvino in Estonian Culture from the Post-War to the New Millennium This article reconstructs Italo Calvino's reception in Estonia, focusing on its interaction with the country's literary, cultural, and political history. The analysis reveals that this interaction cannot be strictly deterministic. Radical changes in Estonia's political and cultural context since World War II influenced Calvino's translation and reception, yet other dynamics…
Sõeludes dekadentsi. Gabriele D’Annunzio tõlge ja retseptsioon XX sajandi alguse eesti kultuuris
1911. aastal pakkus Gustav Suits Noor-Eesti ajakirja viimase numbri (5/6) „Lõpusõnas” oma arusaama Noor-Eesti rühmituse saamisloost, avades intellektuaalseid mõjusid, mis nooreestlaste maailmavaadet ja kirjanduslikku kreedot kujundasid. Sealt leiame ka järgmised read: Ei tea kust laenuraamatukogust olivad ka esimesed Vene „dekadendid”, Balmont ja Brjussov, nende ridade kirjutaja kätte puutunud. Ühe juhtumise kaudu tutvustasin ma end, Tartu [...]
Literary multilingualism in translation
Lotman in the Anglophone world
This article reconstructs the main foci and changes in the reception of Juri Lotman’s work and Lotman-related scholarship in the Anglophone world. The first part of the article presents a brief critical overview of the history of the translations of Juri Lotman’s works into English and of Anglophone scholarship on Lotman from 1973 to the present. The second part of the article considers more closely three volumes entirely dedicated to Lotman’s wo…
Illness
The article uses the review of a seminar, an exhibition, and a graduate conference, which took place at Tallinn University in the 2020-2021 academic year, as an occasion to reflect on the different ways in which illness has been represented in literature, the arts, and film across the history of Western culture. The specific focus of the article is on the theoretical contribution of the humanities to a more complex and adequate understanding of t…
Thinking the new after the fall of the Berlin Wall
This paper reads semiotician Juri Lotman’s later works (1985–1993) against the background of the debates on historicity and temporality that were triggered in the West by the fall of the Berlin Wall, from Francis Fukuyama’s ‘end of history’ to François Hartog’s ‘presentism’. The collapse of the USSR provoked a shift of attention in Lotman’s work from signs and texts to historical processes that he rethinks from the point of view of change and nov…
Translating the Soviet Thaw in the Estonian context
This article develops a multilayered analysis of the Estonian book series Loomingu Raamatukogu within the context of the Soviet Thaw. The series has been issued since 1957 and is principally devoted to translations of foreign literature. My argument takes the Thaw as a new field of uncertain possibilities and shows how a wide translation project became the catalyst for experimentation in the gray zone between the allowed and the forbidden. Invest…
XX sajandi tõdedest XXI sajandi tõejärgsuseni
Käesoleva artikli teemapüstitus lähtub üsna laialt levinud arusaamast, et humanitaaria ja tõe/tõdede suhteid arutades ei saa tänapäeval üle ega ümber nn tõejärgse ajastuga seotud küsimustest. Mis asi on tõejärgsus? Millis(t)est tõekäsitlus(t)est selle määratlemisel lähtuda? Kuidas humanitaaria nende käsitlustega ja nende kahtluse alla seadmisega seostub? Mida me peaksime humanitaarteadlastena sellest järeldama? Järgnevalt pakun nendele küsimustel…
Borders and translation
In the framework of the theory of the semiosphere elaborated by Juri Lotman in the 1980s, the notion of translation acquires a new, broadened meaning and is used to describe a general mechanism of cultural dynamics. This is a direct consequence of the understanding of the semiosphere as a "continuum of semiotic systems" of which heterogeneity and polyglotism are constitutive features. If the "smallest functioning semiotic mechanism" is not an iso…
Amaicast Pariisi ning sealt Tartusse tagasi. Lydia Koidula maailmavaatest ja mugandamisstrateegiatest tema saksa eeskujude valguses
Aastal 1973 kurtis üks Lydia Koidula peamisi eluloo ja loomingu uurijaid Aino Undla-Põldmäe Keele ja Kirjanduse veergudel, et Koidula jutulooming on tema kirjandusliku pärandi uurimisel jäetud „vaeslapse ossa” ning see piirab tõsiselt meie arusaama selle mõjust Koidula „kogu-loomingu kontekstis” (Undla-Põldmäe 1973: 520). Praeguseks on Koidula proosat käsitletud nii artiklites kui ka monograafiates, kuid uurijate tööd [...]
Remains of the Soviet Past in Estonia
The FRINGE series explores the roles that complexity, ambivalence and immeasurability play in social and cultural phenomena.A cross-disciplinary initiative bringing together researchers from the humanities, social sciences and area studies, the series examines how seemingly opposed notions such as centrality and marginality, clarity and ambiguity, can shift and converge when embedded in everyday practices
Mittekuulumise valu ja võimalus
Oma esimeses tekstis, New Yorgi ajakirjas Novõi Žurnal trükivalgust näinud jutustuses „Tuhk” pakub Andrei Ivanov välja määratluse, mis on ühel või teisel viisil jäänud iseloomustama kõiki tema romaanide peategelasi ja mõneti ka ta enda autorikuvandit – a non-belonger, a man in between. Ivanov kasutab inglise keelt, sest need väljendid pärinevad 1990. aastate alguse rahvusvahelistest kosmopoliitsuse [...]
Critique of ideology or/and analysis of culture? Barthes and Lotman on secondary semiotic systems
The article compares Roland Barthes’s and Juri Lotman’s notions of ‘second-order semiological systems’ [systemes sémiologique seconds] and ‘secondary modelling systems’ [вторичные моделирующие системы]. It investigates the shared presuppositions of the two theories and their important divergences from each other, explaining them in terms of the opposite strategic roles that the notions of ‘ideology’ and ‘culture’ play in the work of Barthes and L…
From Dissensus to Inoperativity
This article develops a comprehensive reading of Life & Times of Michael K, one of J. M. Coetzee's most controversial novels, which has provoked strong feelings and an intense debate among critics since its publication in 1983. Scholarly works on the novel have tended to explore the ethical dilemma raised by the enigmatic life of the protagonist and his apparent unrelatedness with its "times", focusing on the issues of absolute alterity and its (…
Tõlkelised ebakõlad totalitarismi monoloogis
Tõlketeaduses on viimastel kümnenditel huviorbiiti tõusnud tõlke ajalooline, sotsiaalne ja kultuuriline kontekst ning tavapäraseks on saanud humanitaaria erinevate distsipliinide esindajate koostöö, mis on päädinud läbimurdelise tähtsusega rahvuslike tõlkelugude publitseerimisega (vt nt France, Gillespie 2005, 2006, 2008, 2010; Riikonen jt 2007). Paralleelselt tõlkelugude kirjutamisega on aga teoreetilises ja metodoloogilises kirjanduses korduma …
Challenging identity
The concept of "cultural identity" has gradually replaced such discredited concepts as "race", "ethnicity", even "nationality" in the conservative political discourse of recent decades which conceives, represents and performs culture as a closed system with clear-cut boundaries which must be defended from contamination.The article employs the theories of Derrida and Lotman as useful tools for deconstructing this understanding of cultural identity…

From globality to partiality
This paper examines the discourse of war from a semiotic point of view and suggests some ideas for the development of practices of resistance to it. The discourse of war can be considered symptomatic in respect to underlying discourses of totality such as globalisation. By aiming at explanatory simplification, this kind of discourse takes the paradoxical form of an exhaustive paradigm which always engenders a residuum to be eliminated. Semiotics …
