Abstract

This chapter focuses on the main streams of literary production in Macedonia through the analysis of the presence of several historical figures in three novels which were published between 1989 and 2011. Since it is impossible to offer a panoramic view, a kind of literary statistics in all genres, or a short history of the Macedonian literature in this period, I will explore some of the models of literary presentations of “historical figures.” The “ideological” dynamics of the literary scene in independent Macedonia can be seen through the representation of several models of historical figures, recreated mainly in novels, such as Alexander and Death by Aleksandar Mickovik, The Navel of the World by Venko Andonovski, and Nebeska Timjanovna by Petre M. Andreevski. The novels in question are representative literary works which reactualize or write about different historical figures and different historical contexts — in different artistic ways.
