Sažetak
The main thesis of the presentation is based on the idea that a personal identity is not inside us as an a priori category with its unchanged essence. It is relational and constructed in the relations between a person and others. Identity exists as narrative, that is through telling stories about ourselves, where narrations serve as a process of identification through which identity is structured. Considering that narration is based on literariness, presentation will be focused on the structure of identity represented through narration, which is through textual relations between authors, characters and readers. Illusion of narrative that leads us to identify with narrative identities will be analyzed ; bearing in mind that narrative identity is not the same as identity of a real person. Identification with fictional characters and sympathy towards them will be analyzed as an ideological function of narrative through which identities are constructed. Presentation will therefore focus also on the mechanisms of narrative identification. Main emphasis of the presentation will be on the self – help literature as ideal examples of authors direct addressing to readers through the process of interpellation, where identities are constructed as affect of recognition (identification).
