SITUATIONS OF INTERROGATION IN THE AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL TEXTS OF G. S. RAKOVSKI

Abstract

This work analyses the situations of interrogation in two of Georgi Rakovski’s autobiographical texts. It examines the genre specifics of both works. Furthermore, it deals with the intricacies of communication, which serve to both distinguish and define the texts. The article examines selfnaming as an important act of identification and draws a comparison between Rakovski’s characters and the ancient trickster character. Analogies are found in other texts from Medieval and Bulgarian Renaissance literature.
