Political Metamorphoses and European Identity of Albanians Through Crossing the Borders
Abstract
The moral transgression and the legal code, that seems to be mixed up in order to keep the rules of society, remind us that the crime has not always been with us but it is institutionalized. Artistic work of Ismail Kadare is an accusation addressed to the governing totalitarian utopia and the society's primitivism that he obviously considers as a heavy load of his creativity. The society is heavily controlled by the 'communist party' and is led by one of the harshest Balkan dictators named 'Enver Hoxha and his heavy state machine'. In Ismail Kadare’s work, the state is grabbed by political and psychopathological metamorphosis such as the blood corruption of the feudal face of the state, the ghoulish terror against common people, the clash of classes, and the hunt of intellectuals. The borrowing of identity, the change of thought of the 'political elite', hierarchy amongst the privileged, spying of the police and the corruption of justice, facing the truth and the wild political incest that springs from the absolutism of a dictatorship ruling authority. These are paradoxes and psychopathological absurdities trauma of paranoia and pain that stem from a single term political utopia.Keywords: metamorphoses, European identity, utopia, cross borders.
