Položaj Antigone među slovenskim besmrtnicima

Memorialization in the form of the architectural statue can suggest that our stance towards the past is concrete while memorials in the form of repeated social activity represent reconciliation with the past as a continual process. Enacted memorials suggest that reconciliation with the past is not itself a thing of the past. Each generation must grapple with its inherited memories, guilt, and grief and self-consciously take its own stance towards that which came before it. This article considers Dominik Smole’s post World War II rewrite of Antigona as an enacted memorial within the context of socialist Yugoslavia. The practice of restaging Antigona in Slovenia may be seen as the practice of meta-memorialization, which routinely returns to the past while openly weighing the dangers of awakening the unburied dead against the dangers of letting the unaddressed conflicts of the past sleep.Rad razmatra preradu Antigone Dominika Smolea u razdoblju nakon Drugoga svjetskog rata kao izvedbeno sjećanje u kontekstu socijalističke Jugoslavije. Praksa ponovnog postavljanja Antigone u Sloveniji može se iščitati kao praksa metamemorijalizacije koja se opetovano vraća prošlosti, dok otvoreno procjenjuje opasnost od buđenja nepokopanih mrtvih u odnosu na opasnost od puštanja nerazriješenih sukoba iz prošlosti na miru
