Confessions of Vanished Places by Bessa Myftiu: The Introspective Geography of Self in the Author’s Literary Formation
چکیده EnglishIn Confessions of vanished places, Bessa Myftiu explores the profound interaction between the female character/narrator and space that transcends a simple description/contemplation to become an essential communion. The novelist manages to create an intimate dialogue between the narrator and the spatial elements, such as the house she lives in and its neighborhood, the places she passes through, etc., these becoming symbols of resilience, fragility and loss. These interactions highlight an existential quest where the narrator seeks to preserve an authentic connection with the space belonging to her past, despite manipulations and socio-political upheavals. Our research aims to study the role that space, omnipresent and subtly described, plays in the becoming of the main character; we will also verify how the crossing of places and the recall of memories could reflect the emotional and spiritual interiority of the protagonist. We will see that space, often associated with memory, constitutes places of renewal, but also identity markers. Through his writing, Myftiu evokes the nostalgia for transformed or disappeared spaces, highlighting their importance in the formation of his writing as an individual inhabiting a changing world.
