Committee member Ivana Perica has assumed a new post as associate researcher in the HORIZON 2022 project “The Cartography of the Political Novel in Europe” (2023-2027). Launched on 1 February 2023, this consortium project examines how a specific literary genre (political novel) in various national and cultural contexts deals with political issues and thereby shapes the perception of local and global politics. In particular, the project aims to understand how perceptions formed by different beliefs, values, traditions, economy, history, culture, age and gender are reflected in the political novel, and how and why this literary genre re-emerges as a social factor today.

Join the project’s kick-off event on February 17, 2023, at 10 a.m. CET at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Zagreb (conference hall) and online.
