Greinin kallast “The Ultraminor to be or Not to be. Deprivation and Compensation Strategies in Faroese Literature”
Enskur samandráttur
The article is divided into three steps: a) the ultraminor size of Faroese literature; b) ultraminor size as a felt and experienced reality of deprivation and c) ultraminor size as a compensation turning deprivation into notions of greatness. Deprivation and compensation pervade all kinds of literary Faroese expressions. Deprivation manifests itself in a broader context as lack of resources within cultural and research institutions, as a weak public sphere, low degree of specialization, and a highly limited market. The focus is on one of the most significant compensation strategies, that is to say: totalization. The article deploys an approach crossing the fields of World Literature, Island Studies, and Place Studies. Faroese literature is at the same time a limited space and a space enlarged by totalizing “litmaps.” The ultraminor aspects of the Faroese archipelago are demonstrated with particular references to the writings of William Heinesen and Gunnar Hoydal.
