The literature of migration as a document of the collective memory
The purpose of this article is to highlight representations of social ties, ruptures and fractures in society unleashed in post-Soviet Bessarabia. And we are referring to representations of a type of anthropological crisis that simultaneously affected both economic behaviors and individual subjectivities, leading to exodus, uprooting, massive migration - to the renunciation, temporary or permanent, of the psychological comfort generated by home, family or of the country. The texts we are referring to are literary x-rays of the post-communist period, of its mentalities and the captive life of the Bessarabian. The article addresses the topical subject of migration, a phenomenon specific to so-called marginal and totalitarian societies, a subject with a major impact on the thematic evolution of literature born within these societies.
