American Dream or American Experience: Being a Foreigner in Praxis and in Literary Theory
2020
The paper addresses the topic of emigration to the US based on
my own personal experience. It juxtaposes the notion of “American dream”
to that of “American experience” and argues that curiosity was the major
motivation of my decision to cross the Atlantic as a refugee. The visit turned
into a permanent stay after I was able to join – as an instructor in Slavic
studies – the local “experience industry”, turning into a broker of the East
European experience for American youth
