This article explores how questions of collective memory, more specifically those connected to the traumatic legacy of the 1990s in Yugoslavia, are addressed in Sasa Ilic’s novel Berlinsko okno (The Berlin Window, 2005). At the heart of Berlinsko okno is the idea that, not unlike post-1989 Germany, Serbia should confront its recent past, especially its role in the wars of Yugoslav succession. This article argues that Ilic’s novel not merely attempts to give a voice to the nameless victims of the recent Yugoslav wars, to those who Shoshana Felman calls ‘the expressionless’. Calling attention to the politics of forgetting in Serbia, Berlinsko okno also urges the reader to think what Jean-Francois Lyotard has called ‘the immemorial’, that which can be neither remembered, nor forgotten. An analysis of the Brechtian intertext of the novel, then, reveals how Ilic’s novel connects the ethics of remembering with the politics of representation. Emphasizing the task of not forgetting the victims of the violence of the 1990s, the novel provocatively engages in the current debate among Serbian writers and literary critics about the social role and political relevance of literature today.
本文探讨了萨沙·伊利奇的小说《柏林之窗》(the Berlin Window, 2005)是如何解决集体记忆的问题的，更具体地说，是那些与20世纪90年代南斯拉夫创伤性遗产有关的问题。柏林的核心观点是，与1989年后的德国不同，塞尔维亚应该正视它最近的过去，尤其是它在南斯拉夫继承战争中的角色。这篇文章认为，伊利克的小说不仅试图为最近南斯拉夫战争中无名的受害者发声，为那些被肖莎娜·费尔曼称为“无表情”的人发声。柏林斯科·奥克诺呼吁人们关注塞尔维亚的遗忘政治，他还敦促读者思考让-弗朗索瓦·利奥塔所说的“古老的”，既不能被记住，也不能被遗忘。对小说布莱希特式互文的分析揭示了伊利克的小说是如何将记忆的伦理与再现的政治联系起来的。这部小说强调了不要忘记20世纪90年代暴力事件受害者的任务，引发了塞尔维亚作家和文学评论家关于当今文学的社会角色和政治相关性的争论。
